Top Kids Electric Cars, Ride-On's and Powered Vehicles
Peg Perego offer the best kids John Deere Tractors with electric power. Replica tractors that are sure to please and strong enough to last. This review of the Ground Force Tractor with Trailer shows that it offers the best in farm fun. Especially as the battery powered motor makes them feel like they are driving the real thing.
I have a good story to tell about Farmer Phil if you have time to read the full review but needless to say I do rate the Ground Force 12v tractor highly. If your kid is into farm machinery, and mine certainly is then this is a good buy. Peg Perego have paid attention to all the details. The trailer especially helps with backing up in a realistic way and the driver can imitate his favorite farmer with ease.
A good, strong and reliable rechargeable kids electric tractor, the Ground Force comes recommended. If you don't have time for the detailed review then here are the highlights.
- Auto-braking
- Large stake-side trailer
- FM Radio
- Adjustable seat
- Flip-up arm rests
- High speed lockout
- Made in USA
- Ages 2 - 7 years
- 2 speed plus reverse
- FM Radio included
- Wheels provide traction in dirt
- Tricky to build out of the box
- May be too small for a tall 7 year old
- Tires are solid plastic and will wear with heavy use
One of the best kids electric ride-on toys, the Razor Power Rider 360 is designed for donuts just like the parking lot racers of yesteryear. Spin, drift and slide around the yard on this cool electric trike. Of course, you can also travel in a stright line but the slick rear wheels and grippy rubber front tire are designed for maximum drifting if you dare.
Most young boys and girls love spinning around, medical professionals have even written papers on how good motion is for brain development. There is a chance that all this drifting will actually be improving your young-one's intelligence. Now there is a great reason to buy a Razor Power Rider 360!
Smart kids and adults know that Razor is a best-selling and trusted American Brand, which means that you cannot really go wrong. This product has been at the top of the best-selling lists for quite some time and I would like to bet that you already know some kids in the neighborhood that have one.
If you don't have time to read the full and detailed review here is a summary:
- Great design, great fun
- Easy to build out of the box
- Just push a button to start motor
- Almost impossible to tip over
- Not for the feint-hearted
- Can lead to injury if mis-used
- Batteries occasionally faulty on delivery
The John Deere Gator XUV is another popular farm vehicle from the Peg Perego range. As it carries 2 kids and even a 3rd in a trailer, it can be a lot of fun for toddlers to drive around in. All of the 12v John Deere farm vehicles are extremely popular and this one is also best-seller.
This review the Gator 500 XUV model find's it's worthy of 4 stars. Like all of the Peg Perego electric vehicles it is extremely sturdy and largely weatherproof. The hard plastic shell is virtually unbreakable and you can't travel too fast in it to cause any kind of serious damage anyway.
If you have a little bit of space in the back yard or on a quiet street this large-wheeled XUV (that's SUV on steriods!) will delight your young kids as they drive about doing farm-work. It will work pretty well on most terrain except if it's very wet and too slippery.
- Each rear wheel has a drive motor
- Very sturdy
- Working dump-bed
- Cup holder
- Excellent warranty
- Peg Perego quality
- Seats 2 kids
- Can take a trailer
- Forward and reverse gears
- Quite a large vehicle
- Take care not to over-charge battery
It is hard to find a ride-on car for kids of 8 to 12 years old and this is where the Go-Kart comes in. Even better an electric go-kart. Even better than that is this Razor Drifter Fury Electric Kart that is designed for spinning, drifting and sliding. So if you think they are still too young for a gas-powered kart, then why not treat them to a fun electric go-kart instead?
The Razor Drifter Fury Kart does exactly what it says on the can. The sturdy, slick rear tires offer the slide while the front tires offer the grip. The effect is that the Drifter Kart can slide around corners with ease. The best part is that it will not tip over. It feels like ot's going to but it doesn't, thereby offering the extra thrill of a spill.
You do need a bit of space for your child to make the most of the Razor Drifter Fury Kart. A large, concrete driveway or quiet part of the street is a perfect sliding gound. If you have access to a disused parking lot - all the better.
- Solid rubber tires
- Large slick rear tires for drifting
- bucket seat
- Great battery life
- Very well constructed
- Will not tip over
- Good battery life
- Great for older kids
- A lot of space needed
The Henes Broon T870 Power Train 4x4 luxury electric ride-on car is the top premium kids 24v car that you can buy. We also take a look at the Henes Broon F830 Sports car, so click the review link to read more about that as well. Not only does it have real 4x4 traction along with rubber tires for proper off-road action, it has a leather bucket seat, working doors with handles, working lights, turn signals, speedo, suspension, electronic steering and more.
Henes Broon have really excelled themselves with their range of T870 kids off-road vehicles. Of course, they're at the premium end of the market, but the run-of-the-mill power wheels ride-on's are not for everyone. From the leather bucket seat to the working lights and turn signals, this little replica for 5 year olds is the best.
If you are looking for the top electric ride-on in it's class then look no further. Available in several colors including black, mustard, red, white and cream, the Henes Broon T870 includes a tablet mounted on the dashboard for control and a whole bunch of specialist features for the money. I also take a quick look a the other Henes Broon electric car whch is the amazing F830 Kids Luxury electric sports coupe.
- Leather bucket seat
- 4 Wheel drive
- Stereo speakers
- Dash-mounted android tablet included
- Too many features to mention!
- Best in class luxury vehicle
- Leather seat
- Disc brakes
- remote control
- List is too long to mention everything
- Steep learning curve as it's a tech-toy
The Razor Dune Buggy has been a hit electric kart for a few years now and there’s no sign of that changing anytime soon. The sturdy steel frame, protective flooring and change drive make the Dune Buggy really strong. It’s an amazing off-road style vehicle and the knobbly air tires give you all the traction you could need on gravel, grass or mud surfaces.
I like the Dune Buggy along with it’s sister vehicle, the Razor Drifter Kart because they are great for older kids. Karts and electric cars for pre-teens and early-teens are few and far between but you can even fit in this one if you are over 5 feet tall if you scrunch your legs up a little more.
The Dune Buggy does not go as fast as other karts because the idea is that the 350 Watt motor provides more torque for off-road use. That means that it's actually geared to be better at hills, bumps and dirt trails rather than racing on a flat. That said, it's also fine for riding on the street or concrete and will be safer at the slower 10mph speeds than a 15mph kart which might get your kids into more trouble in the neighborhood.
The battery needs to be charged in a particular way so make sure that you read the charging instructions in the supplied manual very carefully, then it will last a long time. Expect a few wipe-outs with this kart as it's designed for rough use, but don;t worry as spares are readily available for this popular electric kart.
- 8" knobby tires
- big bucket seat
- comfort padding
- safety flag
- 350 Watt motor
- diamond plate floorboard
- Great off-road fun buggy
- Durable chain drive motor
- Great for older kids
- For ages 8 and up
- Follow charging instructions carefully
The question is why is this Peg Perego Polaris RZR 900 electric SUV in Pink such a great seller? It seems that this is just about the most popular 4x4 on this site and that surprises me somewhat because the color is so unusual. Mind you, if you have a daughter (unlike me) maybe you'll understand. Of course, we can't say that pink is just for girls so maybe it's kids of all genders who are enjoying this brightly colored vehicle.
This Polaris RZR900 is the usual great Peg Perego quality and it has a 1 year warranty which reflects that. It's a lightweight vehicle, which make it good for carrying around, but if your child is small and lightweight I think that you may need to put some extra weight in the back to help the wheels gain some traction.
Two kids can fit in the bucket seats comfortably and enjoy riding around together. The stick shift provides a realistic gear-change and you also get a reverse gear for backing up out of those tricky spots. There is no fancy music players in this model, but there is more than enough space to put a speaker in the rear cargo area if that's what your child wants. The foot-operated gas-type pedal to start the motor and the high speed lockout for safety make this Polaris easy to operate and at speeds of 2.5 or 5mph you need not worry too much that your little one's are going to get into trouble. Peg Perego have created another winner with the Polaris RZR 900!
- Large cargo area behind seat
- 2x Cup holders
- 2x adjustable
- Bucket seats
- High speed lockout for safety
- Great warranty
- Made in USA
- 2 speed gear shifter with reverse
- Good traction on gravel and grass
- Good for taller kids
- Great Quality
- Lightweight vehicle may need extra weight for smaller kids to prevent wheels spinning
It pretty much doesn't get more fun than this powerful genuine 4x4 John Deere Gator XUV by Peg Perego. It has 6 wheels and an extra large dump-bed that can take a heavy load of up to 66lbs. Your little ones can ride together up-front with their drinks in the drinks holder and play driving on pretty much all-terrain. This Gator XUV has 4 motors, one of each of the 4 wheels at the front. This clearly provides a lot of extra traction at either the lower 2.5mph or the higher 5mph speed.
Let them drive in long grass, mud, gravel or concrete for a real farm adventure while carrying the weight of another child in the back. The reverse gear add extra real feel so that they can back up out of tight corners and practice their farming skills while they are still young
Once again the high quality Peg Perego reputation precedes this Gator XUV and you will be impressed with how tough and powerful it really is. Most kids electric ride-on's do not have 4 motors for each of the wheels so this feature makes it quite rare. It is more expensive than the average as listed here but you do get a whole lot more power for that money. It looks like Peg Perego have done it again but this time they have produced the ultimate kids electric farm vehicle. The size and power will impress adults, never mind the kids!
- 6 wheels
- Real 4 wheels drive
- Large working dump-bed
- 2 seats
- Great traction
- Real 4x4 power
- Large size
- The ultimate farm vehicle
- Probably too large to keep in the house
This cool blue Dodge Viper SRT convertible has some great features, for example the Viper snake eyes & fang LED running lights give it a mean look! The Kid Trax Power Trax Rubber Traction Strip Tires help it keep a grip even on smooth surfaces.
The real time engine sound simulation will make the kids believe thy are driving the real thing. They can tune into the FM Radio which has an MP player input. A nice touch is the 12 volt charging cord which plugs into the gas tank cap just ike the real deal.
If you like a quiet time at home then this noisy car may not be for you! However it is a best-seller so many parents deal with the noise or just send the car out in the yard. It's a safe speed at only 5mph so there will be no concerns of your little ones crashing into walls and causing dama ge to themselves (or the walls).
The car has no trunk space so you won't need to worry about things being hidden in there, which happened to me all the time when my son was small. It will take about an hour to assemble but the joy on your toddlers faces will be well worth the trouble.
This Dodge Viper, like other Kid Trax cars is a high quality kids electric ride-on car. The 12v battery means more power for longer than other 6 volt cars. The car really will travel at 5mph so you need to pick up your walking pace a bit to keep up with the cruising young ones. If the children are very small it may even fit 3 kids, but the max recommended weight it can carry is around 130lbs which means dad's can definitely not ride in this car!
- Very high quality
- Both doors open
- 2 speed modes
- Viper eye lights
- Realistic engine sounds
- FM radio and mp3 input
- Rubber strips on tires for traction
- Perfect for 3-6 year olds
- Charge via gas cap
- Trusted Brand
- Rubber strips on tires need cleaning to maintain grip
Review of this excellent kids SL300 12v electric toy Mercedes car replica explains why it's such a great buy for adults to admire as well as kids to ride. The 12v motor provides enough power to ride around for a good half a day's worth of pure fun. Good for 2-5 or 6 years old toddlers, this vintage Mercedes ride-on car will delight children and parents alike.
When the battery runs out, simply plug in the charger under the seat and switch ot off while you wait. This Mercedes electric car for kids also has a remote control. Drive your kids around by remote without them even having to touch the steering wheel. Depending on the size and weight of the child, this vehicle could be fine for a 6 year old although I am sure that they won't want to give up the car when they outgrow it.
As well as being super-cute, this Mercedes SL300 has a lot of charm and is a popular item for parents and grandparents looking for a gift that is a little different. It's a great price at under $150 and other parents rate it highly. Summary of the features here:
- On-board music player
- Working lights
- Forward and reverse
- Great for younger kids
- Authentic Vintage Mercedes Styling
- Easy to put together out of the box
- Remote control included
- Includes a music player in the dashboard
- Limited colors (Black/Red/Yellow)
- Not good at driving over grass
Our review of the 6v electric Batmobile car as driven by Batman (when he was very small). Remote control for parents, safety features and low power make it a good choice for 1 - 5 year olds. What could be cooler for kids or nostalgic parents than this Batman's Batmobile Electric Car? 6 volts of electric memories for Dad's and a safety remote for Mom's peace of mind.
Because there are a few different types of Batman car, including ATV's and a Dune Racer. I decided to include all of the various Batman vehicles in a comparison table. A lot of people were visiting this page to look at reviews of Fisher Price Batman Cars and that's why they are all included.
Batman has been popular since the 1960's and there is no sign of his popularity waning with the younger generations. He is a dark and philosophical figure and that even appeals to young kids. The classic Batman car that we review is, as I say a real Adam West nostalgia trip as it reminds me of that 1960's car. Here is a summary of that car:
- Classic Batmobile styling
- Parental remote control
- Music player
- Headlight
- Multicolor center light
- Very cool looking
- Music player included
- Working headlights
- Parent remote control
- Needs construction but not to difficult
- Battery life is not the longest
All Kid Trax electric cars carry a 1 year warranty which shows just how confident they are about these products. The Dodge Charger Police car Cruiser car is pretty huge by regular standards and it may be too large to use indoors.
This particular model is a bestseller which is strange because Kid Trax have actually discontinued it. Fortunately there is still some stock left on Amazon so you can get hold of this classic cop car right now while it's still available. The fake police computer dashboard is a nice touch along with all the lights, siren and sounds.
Prepare to have a noisy time with your kids in this car. It's not for those households that prefer peace and quiet! It's a quick car to assemble out of the box and you should be able to get it done in 30 mins if you are a little bit handy. Otherwise, do it well in advance of the time you need to give the child the gift to save disappointment.
The Dodge Charger Police car is a very high quality car, there are no complaints on that side of things, however it seems that the packaging is not as good as the car. Check that everything is in the box before you assemble it so that you can return it in time if you need to. That said, this car is a hit, a best seller and will provide hours of law-enforcing fun for your children. Get them a cop uniform to complete the look!
- Very high quality
- Padded seats
- Chrome look wheel rims
- Flashing lights
- Siren
- Mock police computer screen
- Large sized car
- Siren and sounds
- Easy to assemble
- Trusted Brand
- Rubber strips on tires need cleaning to maintain grip
Tractors are a perennial favorite young kids and Peg Perego are great at making them. This Case IH Magnum red tractor is great for off-road as it has 2 motors, one driving each rear wheel. You get to drive over mud and through long grass with ease. If you try to accelerate on a slippery surface, the wheels will spin but this is by design so that the motors do not overheat.
The trailer is not so easy to take on and off all the time so I recommend either leaving it on or modifying the trailer hitch a little to make to perfect. This tractor is heavily discounted this year because Peg Perego have come out with newer models but it’s on this list because it’s a great buy. If you need a powerful kids electric tractor on a budget then this is your tractor. The Case IH Magnum is good for kids up to about 5 years old ,then it might get a little small for them.
It is made in the USA for those of you who want to support local jobs and your child will love riding around the yard on this bright red tractor. It has 2 forward gears and a reverse gear so kids can back it up if there is not enough turning room. Grab this Case IH Magnum tractor and trailer now while it's so heavily discounted. It's a great buy and much cheaper right now than equivalent models even from the same manufacturer. Go farm kids! Get agricultural and enjoy the tractor fun!
- Auto-braking
- large stake-side trailer
- FM Radio
- Adjustable seat
- flip-up arm rests
- High speed lockout. Made in USA.
- Great 1.5hr ride time
- Very sturdy tractor
- Heavily discounted
- Runs off-road very well
- Trailer not as sturdy as others
The Gaucho Rock'in Ride On is an outrageously style SUV style kids electric car. The 12 volt battery ensures enough power for either 2.5mph or 5mph 2-speed operation. Get the kids rocking with the Gaucho radio as they explore the outdoors, go up and down hills and across gravel or grass in the backyard.
The kids can buckle-up their seat belts likethe real thing and bop along to the radio with a friend in the passenger seat. The rack and pinion steering systems makes it easier to steer than other ride-ons and and the rear suspension springs ensure a smooth ride over the bumpy surfaces you tend to find in a back yard.
The 2-speed shifter can be slightly tricky to use as you have to be sure it's in the correct position otherwise the vehicle will not move. Once they get used to that they will be fine as otherwise it's a really easy ride to get used to. There is a reverse gear which is a lot of fun when your a small child. I was fascinated by reversing vehicles when I was a kid and I know my son was too!
Parents will appreciate the 5 mph lockout that prevents beginners from going too fast. There is a 12-volt rechargeable battery and the charger included. The seatbelts are a nice detail and so are the bucket seats as well as the rear suspension springs. All in all this is a loud and proud SUV ride-on that pulls no punches in the style department!
You get the typical Peg Perego quality with the Gaucho hence these vehicles are not the cheapest. You wouldn't ant to buy your kids the cheapest stuff that doesn't work well though would you?!
- 2 speeds plus reverse (21/2 or 5 mph) (5 mph lockout for beginners)
- FM Radio with MP-3 jack
- Toolbox with tools and a working horn
- Adjustable seats with Seatbelts
- Easy to assemble
- Good on gravel and grass

About Our Independent Reviews
We rate the ease of construction, durability, fun-factor, battery life, ease of construction out of the box and price-point value of these fun-packed toys. There is a good reason that electric vehicles are so popular with parents and kids alike: They are cute, safe and last a long time so provide good value for money.
Why Do Kids Love Electric Vehicles?
Well this one is pretty easy to answer! They love powered cars because they get to emulate their parents! Every child wants to feel like a grown up and drive a car, scooter or motorbike. In reality this category of toy has the dual function of introducing children to technology as well as the concepts of controlling a powered vehicle.
Kids can feel safe and learn at the same time. Of course, it is well known that play is an important factor in a child's development and helps them gain confidence in other areas of life as they grow.
Power-assisted vehicles really are a great and modern way for a child to play and develop their physical and mental skills at the same time.
Confidence gained playing is the starting point for a child to develop other important skills and helps them hit milestones that are essential for intellectual development.
How To Choose The Best Kids Electric Car
We know how difficult it is to choose the right one of the many toddlers powered vehicles that are available in the market. This is why we cover several Brands that offer a range of top products from cheaper children's and adult electric vehicles to expensive ones. The main things to consider when choosing an electric car are:
- The age and height of your child
- The ease of use of the vehicle controls
- Whether the vehicle can move easily on grass or concrete
- How good the vehicle is at going up inclines
- How long the battery lasts
- How long the battery takes to charge
- The length of warranty of the vehicle
- How long your child will use it before they outgrow it
Electric Ride-On Car Batteries
All of these vehicles have one thing in common: they all have rechargeable batteries. The batteries can take anywhere from 1 hour to 8 hours to charge depending on the model of the car and this might be a hassle. In fact, this is the main reason that parents will often buy a backup battery. Our guide to Fisher Price Power Wheels and other kids electric car batteries will help you choose the right one.
The spare backup battery can be kept fully charged and swapped out for the discharged battery when it's expired to keep the kids driving for longer. You just need to make sure that the battery in your particular car is actually removable to achieve this.
In any case if the though of constantly charging batteries is too much for you then look at our best kids ride-on toys reviews instead, because those ride-on's run on pedal power instead!
Constructing A Ride-On Car Out Of The Box
It is important to consider factors such as the construction method of a ride-on because they usually need some kind of construction when they are new. At the very least the steering wheel will normally need to be put onto the steering column and fixed into place. Each vehicle comes boxed and needs constructing in some way.
If you are unable to do this kind of thing then it's best to ask a friend or look for a car that is pre-constructed. Some of the smaller vehicles for toddlers do come pretty much fully constructed as their size enables them to be packed and shipped more easily.
The larger vehicles will normally need building in some way. My general advice in these cases is that it always takes longer than you think it will! I.e. Don't leave it until the night before you are going to present your child with their gift to build it. Otherwise you'll be up all night and then some!
Kids Electric Motorbike Options
As well as cars, trucks and tractors their is a pretty good assortment of electric motorbikes out there as well. Some have stabilizing wheels mounted at the rear and some models are pure 2-wheelers. A good example of an electric motorbike (or scooter in this case) is the Razor Pocket Mod Electric Scooter (Retro Italian Vespa Style).
Another type of kids electric motorbike is the proper dirt motorbike style of the Razor MX500 which looks and feels like the real thing.

9 Fun Reasons to Buy Your Kids an Electric Car
Electric ride-on cars are one of the most exciting toys that you can get for your kids. Especially these days with manufacturers finding ways of making electric toy cars as close to the real thing as possible, you should definitely consider getting aone for the family.
For those parents who are safety conscious or have kids who spend more time on the internet, it is usual to expect a bit of skepticism at whether an electric toy car is a worthy present. It is pretty understandable though; you want the best for your kid and you don’t want to get them something that they might find boring or might be more dangerous.
With that being said, we are coming up with nine reasons why you should buy your kids an electric toy car. We are going to convert doubters into believers, and believers into Evangelists.
- Kids Know That Electric Cars Are Environmentally Friendly. For many kids these days, they are growing up in a time where the environment matters a whole lot to them. These kids spend some days at school learning about carbon emissions and alternative forms of energy. Most of all they are encouraged to be kind to the environment so that earth can be inhabited for longer by future generations. So it should not be a surprise that many kids love electric cars. Electric cars do not emit carbon emissions, and once they start playing with them, they will think that they are doing their bit to help the environment.
- Electric Cars Are Quiet. One of the things that you will notice about the electric car compared to the petrol car is that electric cars are quieter. This is because unlike a normal car, electric cars do not convert heat energy into sound energy and other various forms of energy to keep the engine running. What this means for your kids, especially if they have multiple friends over, they can hear each other when they are playing together. That makes parents fall in love with electric cars even more since they can have a conversation without having to yell.
- Electric Cars Are A Smooth Ride. One of the things that your kid will find very cool about the electric car is that it can accelerate and still maintain a smoothness to the ride. What this means is that your kid will find it relaxing to be in an electric car far more than in a normal car. Having that smoothness will make your kid think that electric cars are safe and are not dangerous. That way they can have more fun with their friends without being freaked out by the dangerous sounds.
- Your kid Will Imagine More that they can go places that they have never been to before. For starters, since these electric cars are so small and robust to ride in, your kids will definitely enjoy going in them very quickly up hills or around in their backyard. When they sit in that electric car that you have bought them, they will understand that they are going on one wild adventure each and every time. Especially when they use the pedal when they themselves are going up the hill, they will think that this is the coolest car that they have ever driven.
- Your kid will be able to play more with their friends, especially with an electric car on hand. Remember back in the day when you used to play cops and robbers. The idea was that you had to hide away so that the cop could not find you. We’ll, that is more fun with the electric car now because the kid cop has a real car to use; just like they do for real in cop chases. Not that we are saying that your kid should run over kid criminals, but what we are emphasizing here is the playful aspect of an electric car.
- They Wil Feel Grown-Up. There is something about electric toy vehicles which make kids feel like grown-ups. They see their parents driving a car and all of these big people as well, people who are adults and can do cool things for them. They just think that if they could have a chance to drive a car, then maybe they can be cool. Well they can with the electric car you buy for them, they will definitely start thinking that they are the big shot now. Good luck with that.
- Your Kid Will Love The Tech that comes with some electric vehicles. If you have not been aware of the latest toy electric vehicles, some manufacturers have begun to add other components that you would find in a proper car such as an FM radio and actual headlights. What all of this does is that your kid will feel like they are operating the real thing. Again, going back to the sixth point; your kid will feel like a big shot because they feel like they are driving a real car. Even though they are not, it still feels that way to them.
- They Will Choose To Play Outside with the electrical car rather than play on the tablet or laptop. Let’s be honest here; kids don’t go out that much anymore. This isn’t particularly their fault – many parents prioritize safety by keeping their kids at home. However, with the electric toy vehicle, your kid now has a perfect excuse to go outside. They now know that they can be physical outside by playing with a toy that is as exciting and as fun as playing on a computer.
- Ultimately, your kids will love you as a parent ;-) This one is huge – your kids will find playing with the electric car so fun, that they will end up thanking you and loving you more for giving them something that is fun. Although many kids only think about themselves when it comes to getting stuff from their parents, at least they will appreciate you because you get fun things for them. Getting an electric toy car would be the icing on the cake for them that will create lasting memories for themselves.
