12V Ride-On Cars FAQs
Got questions about 12V ride-on cars? We’ve answered the most common queries from parents, covering motors, batteries, indoor and outdoor use, and run times.
What are the different motor and battery setups in 12V ride-on cars?
12V ride-on cars come with different motor and battery combinations. Models with smaller 380–390 motors run at slower speeds, making them ideal for younger children just starting out (ages 1–2) and offering safe use until around 4–5 years. For kids who want more power, 12V ride-ons with 550 motors provide slightly faster performance and better weight handling, giving them room to grow while still staying safe.
Can 12V ride-on cars be used indoors and outdoors?
Yes, all 12V ride-on cars can be enjoyed both indoors and outdoors. Smaller models with lower-powered motors are especially safe for indoor use, as they run at slower speeds. Outdoors, they perform best on smooth and flat surfaces such as driveways, patios, or footpaths, giving kids a safe and stable driving experience.
How long does a 12V ride-on car run on a single charge?
The runtime of a 12V kids electric car depends on the battery capacity. Models with a 4.5Ah battery typically last 40–60 minutes, while a 7Ah battery provides 60–80 minutes. Larger 10Ah batteries can deliver up to 90–120 minutes of driving time. Actual playtime varies with terrain, child’s weight, and use of features like lights or music.
Do 12V ride-on cars come in different styles and brands?
Absolutely. Our 12V Ride On range includes a variety of licensed and inspired models such as Mercedes, Lamborghini, and Jeep-style ride-ons, available in multiple colours and designs.
