12V Licensed Mercedes-AMG GT3 Kids Ride On Car with Upward Doors, 3 Point Belt and 3 Speed Remote, 55 lb, Black

A 17 in tall racing car looks superb and is awkward to get into. A conventional door swings outward into whatever the car is parked next to, and a child ends up climbing over the sill anyway.

Both doors here are hinged to lift upward instead. They clear the sill, they do not need room beside the car, and they lock shut once the child is in. It is the detail that makes a GT3 shape practical rather than just decorative.

Racing proportions

Long, wide and low, with a spoiler on the tail and AMG lettering down the side. At 17 in tall it sits well below the usual ride on car height, which is part of what makes the shape work.

Age, weight and size

3 and up with a 55 lb weight capacity, on a body 45 in long, 26 in wide and 17 in tall with a 13 in seat. ASTM and CPSIA badges sit on the same panel.

Three named speeds

Most listings give a range. This one names each setting: 1.6, 2.2 and 2.8 mph, with forward, backward, left and right available in both modes and an emergency brake on the remote.

Starting, stopping and surfaces

A soft start and stop curve, wear resistant anti skid wheels and four named surfaces: wooden floors, brick roads, gravel roads and sandy areas. Sand and gravel on that list are unusual for a low bodied car. A charger plugs into a port built into the body rather than the battery.

A racing shape with a rear spoiler and the three pointed star on the grille.

1.6, 2.2 and 2.8 mph on the remote, rather than a vague range.

Adjustable, with lockable doors either side.

Power builds and falls away rather than switching on and off.

The 45 in body tips onto small wheels and pulls along.

Both named on the maker's own performance panel.

What we stand behind

• Speed, motor and battery ratings, age, weight capacity and dimensions are the manufacturer's published figures.
• The manufacturer states this is a licensed Mercedes-AMG GT3 design.
• The manufacturer states ASTM and CPSIA compliance. No certificate number is published, and we do not assert the certification ourselves.
• Overload and overcharge protection are named on the maker's panel with no detail of how either behaves, so they are named rather than described.
• A toy for supervised play on private property. Never on a road, a sidewalk or a bike path.
