12V Kids Ride On UTV with Parent Remote, 3 Speeds, Forward and Reverse, Spring Suspension and LED Lights, 3.1 mph, Red

Small drivers are good at going forwards and bad at getting out again. A ride on wedged nose first against a fence or a garden bed usually ends with an adult carrying 20 lb of plastic back onto the path.

Direction is covered from both seats here. The child has a forward and reverse switch on the body, and the adult's remote takes over direction entirely, so a car stuck in a corner can be backed out from where you are standing without anyone lifting it.

Red on grey

The red runs down the flanks and across the push bar, with grey and black filling in behind it. The cage sits above an open cabin, so a child is visible from every angle while driving.

Who is driving

Either the child, using the steering wheel and the foot pedal, or the adult, using a remote with three variable speeds and an emergency brake. The maker notes that the remote takes two AAA batteries.

From behind

The tail end carries lit lamps and a second red bar, and the cage frame is open enough to see the seat through it. It is the view an adult walking behind with the remote will have for most of a session.

Size before you order

35.5 in long, 23 in wide, 21 in tall, with a seat measured at 14.5 in across and 7.5 in deep. That is a shape to check against a garage corner or a car boot before it arrives.

A switch by the seat, with direction also handled from the remote.

On a 12V 4.5A battery to a published 3.1 mph.

Three variable speeds plus an emergency brake, on two AAA cells.

Power eases in and falls away instead of switching on hard.

Springs under the body with wear resistant tyres.

LED headlights, five songs and a horn, off a one button start.

Ships from a Canadian warehouse. Free shipping on orders over $150. Some remote areas, PO boxes and surcharge regions may be excluded or cost extra.

Return within 14 days of purchase, unused, in original condition and packaging.

Covered directly by the manufacturer under their warranty terms for material and manufacturing defects.

Reverse from the switch or the remote is what gets a buggy out of the gap between a car and a fence without an adult lifting it.

Three speed settings and a brake in one hand, with the rear lamps and open cage making the car easy to keep track of on a park path.

Five songs, a horn and headlights on the same one button start keep a driver busy between laps.

What we stand behind

• The speed, the motor and battery ratings, the dimensions and the seat size are the manufacturer's published figures.
• No age range and no weight capacity are published for this model, so none is stated here.
• No run time, charge time or remote range is published.
• The maker's copy claims a 45 degree climbing ability. That figure is not repeated here.
• A toy for supervised play on private property. Never on a road, a sidewalk or a bike path.

Does it reverse?

Yes. There is a forward and reverse switch on the body, and the parent remote controls direction as well.

How fast does it go?

3.1 mph at the top setting, which is quicker than an adult walks. The remote holds three variable speeds below that.

What age is it for?

The manufacturer does not publish an age range or a weight capacity for this model, so we cannot state one. The seat measures 14.5 in by 7.5 in, and the child needs to be able to work a foot pedal.

What does the remote need?

Two AAA batteries, on the maker's own panel. It gives three variable speeds, direction control and an emergency brake.

Where can it be used?

Pavement, concrete and asphalt are the surfaces the maker names, on private property under adult supervision.
