Best Ride On Cars in the UK

The Kids Range Rover HSE Sport Style is a really authentic-looking battery-powered ride on car. It looks just like the original premium SUV and offers one of the widest feature sets for the kid to feel like a real driver. The doors can be opened and closed, and when the kid starts the car there is a real-sounding noise; there is a horn to warn the pedestrians that the car is coming; if your child is into music and it does not distract him or her, the MP3 player can be plugged in—there is even the volume control on the car dashboard. It is absolutely functional.

Being a car, this toy is mostly used outside—in your backyard or in the park where there are no real big cars and there is a lot of space. When your kid misbehaves during their driving, you can take the car control into your own hands with the parental remote control option; the radio remote will work as far as 20 metres from the car itself, a pretty nice distance where you can still see the child and yet grant them some resemblance to privacy for playing.

The model has two seats, like a real car, but it will hardly fit two kids, unfortunately, so the siblings will have to take turns (unless you buy each one their own car, of course). Instead, the second seat can be given to the favourite doll or a plush toy! They can be the child's companion for the ride.

Now, this BMW ride on car is what you need for your kid if they are a big fan of all the Cars movies, Turbo, Speed Racer, and the likes. The BMW I8, after which this car is modelled, is a new (first introduced to the public in 2014) grand tourer sports car, and a hybrid at that, meaning the resemblance between the original and the kids' model does not end with the outer looks—they are both electric cars (well, the original is a combo of electric and gas).

The model has 12V twin motors and a whole variety of features children find absolutely necessary in their ride on cars, from horn to authentic car start roar. There is a seatbelt, the fully operational set of front lights, a port to plug in an MP3 player; the cord is supplied and any AUX-outfitted gadget can be connected to play music through the car's speakers. The two motors allow speeding up to 6 km/h, the wheels can turn left and right, go forward and reverse and if you worry about the child's safety, you can use the parental control option.

The car's capacity is up to 25 kilogrammes, making it suitable mostly for toddlers and small older children. It is a model officially approved and licensed by the BMW company, too: you'll find the BMW logo on the front and the model name on the license plate.

The Audi TT is a compact sports car from Germany whereas this kid-sized model is sold by the UK company Rebo. However, it is certified by the Audi company to be a true replica of the original, only in a much smaller size. Working on two 12V motor and a couple of 6V 4AH batteries, it can move forward as well as backwards, and it also has two speeds—high and low. Your child will have virtually no problems using this Audi ride on car since it starts with a single button push. There are options as to control, you can let your kids drive by themselves or you can use the 2.4GHz RC to remotely move the car wherever you need, for example, to make the little misfit come back inside when it's getting dark and they still can't get enough of the playing. The front lights are working, though, so maybe let them play just a little bit more.

There is a power indicator to notify you when the car is nearing its discharge. The doors to the car can be opened and there is a seatbelt inside for your little toddler's safety and to train them in the right way of driving (i.e. abiding by the rules). The car has its own sounds but you can also connect an external device to play music in MP3 format. This ride on car with remote control will bring hours and hours of joy to your kids and you.

If you wish for your kid to look, feel, and be special, buying them a vintage ride on car instead of a traditional SUV or sports model is one of the steps to take. This particular model is considered suited for kids younger than 3 years old (18 months, actually) since it's not a motorized car and the little one's safety is within your reach more rather than less—the kid will have to use their own power to move the vehicle, hence they won't be able to go too fast and hurt themselves.

The car looks sleek and stylish in its silver colour. It has an operational steering wheel on a sturdy metal body that can endure most mechanical damage the kid can do to it via bumping into walls, for example. You can let the child drive it both outside in the backyard and inside the house for it does not take too much space and won't get in the way all that much. It is a very useful option for kids who love their toys and don't want to part with them—even with a bad weather, your kiddo will have their fun. It is also corrosion-resistant, however, the manufacturer does not recommend the users to leave it in the rain.

The final nice touch we'd like to draw your attention to is that this ride on car weighs only 5 kilogrammes, so carrying it to the playground for your child to play with other kids won't be a problem.

This RideStar model is a Mercedes ride on car with no motors and controlled manually, by the sheer force of your child's feet. It has a moving steering wheel that forces the car to turn corners using front wheels.

The car is a scaled down version of a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, a luxury supercar that was produced from 2010 to 2015 in limited quantity. Mercedes is a famous company and this kids edition of their premium vehicle will surely make your child a centre of everyone's attention with a flock of friends to be acquired in mere hours. Even faster, if you let the little one use the compartment under the seat to store a (not so) secret stash of their favourite candies that they can share with friends or toys to play together when they get tired of riding. A useful feature indeed, if you ask us.

As we've mentioned before, this model is not one of the electric ride on cars, it has no motors, therefore, there is no high capacity battery to propel the car forward or backwards; despite that, you will still need two AA batteries to power the horn and music sounds of the car. These batteries are not supplied with the car itself, you will have to buy them additionally beforehand if you plan your kid to go play with their newest toy right out of the box.
