This cute car is loads of fun, even for my young son. We purchased it a couple of weeks before his third birthday. The first day he mainly went in circles because he did not know how to control the steering, but he quickly mastered going and stopping along with forward and reverse. The next day he mastered the steering wheel, and now he is unstoppable! I recommend this car for kids ages 3 to 6/7 (depending on the weight and height). Our seven year old son, who weighs around 60 pounds, loves it. He would ride it often IF his brother would let him. Because his brother isn't much for sharing this toy, my older son wrote to Santa (in July) and asked him to make a bigger version of Sally (the blue car in the movie) so that he and his brother could race.
Features:
- Minor assembly required (most stickers are already on the car)
- Looks great (the neighbors gawk - adults and kids alike)
- Loads of fun!!! My son insist on riding in his car everyday.
- Good product (battery last about 2 1/2 miles before it needs to be recharged)
- Sensible size (perfect size for riding on the sidewalk and stores well in our crowded garage)
- Good for active parents (goes fast enough for a good pace jog (5 mph) or a comfortable walk (2 1/2 mph) along)
This car would most likely be a hit with any kid, especially one who has seen the movie Pixar Cars.
Now kids can bring the fun and adventure of the hit movie Cars to life, behind the wheel of their very own, talking Lightning McQueen racecar! Drives 3.5 mph forward and reverse on hard surfaces and grass. Cool racecar sound effects and actual voice phrases from the movie add to real driving fun! Equipped with Power Lock™ brakes and backed by Power Wheels One Year Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty. Includes 6-volt battery and charger. Requires 3 AA batteries for sound box.

L. Chakrabarti (Webster, TX)"This car is perfect! My son is three, and he is obsessed with hot wheels, trucks, and RACE CARS! He loves it. There is a lock on the high speed, so he can only go 2.5 miles per hour until I am ready for him to go the full 5 mph. It is easy to steer for him, and after only 30 min. of driving it, he's got it down. The car is adorable, and he looks great driving it. I would highly recommend this toy to any girl or boy who is a big fan of cars (the toys) or CARS the Movie. It's too much fun!"
