Electric Cars For Little Cruisers

The best battery powered cars for kids meet a wide range of parent-approved criteria. Each one goes through a mental checklist, ensuring safety, imaginative design, durability, and ease of movement. If an electric car doesn't meet these 4 requirements, parents will usually divert attention to something else, a miniature ATV that WILL meet all on their ideal checklist.

With that in mind, I've compiled a short-list of junior-sized methods of transportation that meet and exceed parental (and child) expectations:

Power Wheels Dora The Explorer Lil' Quad

Designed for little adventurers, this Dora-inspired quad is a 10th anniversary edition theme. The exterior is fitted with custom decals with depictions of Boots, Dora, and all her friends. The all-over purple is contrasted with a pink scoop-seat, yellow handlebars, and black all-terrain wheels. A large push-button operation acts as the ignition, perfect for toddlers who want to reach a "quick" speed of 2mph. For small explorers who want to take their own pals on a ride, a cargo rack on the back holds a few stuffed animals or tiny toys.

Power Wheels Ford F-150

Rugged and built to last, this all-terrain vehicle looks just like "daddy's truck!" Silver and equipped with a roomy truck bed, it's ideal for those tailgaters in training. The realistic hood lifts to reveal a working "engine," and the sides include real rearview mirrors and a tinted windshield. A double-seater, this truck is recommended for kids between the ages of 2-4, at a weight limit of a combined 65 pounds.

Peg Perego Polaris Outlaw

Sleek and strong, this pint-size vehicle resembles a real, full-size ATV. 2 speeds are available on all-terrain wheels with thick traction for grass, pavement, or gravel. The rechargeable battery goes for hours on a single overnight jolt, and a selection of colors are available for both genders of every toddler age.
