12V 2 Seater Barbie Electric Ride on Jeep
If you have a little princess who absolutely loves Barbie then perhaps the 12V Barbie electric ride on jeep will make her dreams come true. All she needs now is her own little Ken to join her in this magical 2 seater toy car.
This fun electric ride on car is an officially licensed Barbie product manufactured by Injusa of Spain, probably one of the most experienced makers of these fantastic little toys. Injusa began life by making toys in the 1940′s but by the late 1970′s had began manufacturing a range of battery powered jumbo kit vehicles and at the turn of the century started production of these almost fully assembled ride on cars. This experience has led to Injusa becoming one of the most respected names in the field of electric ride on toys.
The styling is unmistakable. Bright Barbie pink with authentic decals all over and lilac purple complementary features in typical Jeep styling, such as the anti roll bar, front grill and wing mirrors.
The Barbie two seater jeep is made for children from aged 2 years and upwards and as such is designed with ease of use in mind. It features forward and reverse gears and an automatic brake which stops the jeep when your child lifts off the accelerator pedal.
The jeep has a solid steel framework with a moulded plastic body ensuring that the vehicle remains effectively scratch free or minor knocks can be buffed out.
A smooth ride is ensured every time with large durable plastic wheels mounted on a wide axle wheelbase for added stability and safety. The jeep will run best on hard flat surfaces but the design of most of these ride on toys means that they will run comfortably on a modest gradient or grassy surfaces.
Performancewise the jeep has a powerful 12V battery system which will give children the thrill of speeds of up to 5kmph (or 3mph), which is just fast enough to excite your children, but slow enough to allow parents to keep up, if needed, with novice or very young ‘drivers’.
The battery and charger are included in the package, just remember to charge the battery prior to the big day so that the jeep is ready to use and there are no tears or tantrums while daddy charges it up. The first charge of these heavy duty batteries can take up to 18 hours. Follow the manufacturers instructions if in any doubt.
In terms of size, make sure you have enough space to store this vehicle, the car measures (l x h x w) 177 x 84 x 77cm or in Imperial 69.5 x 33 x 30 inches. The jeep weighs a sturdy 18.4kg, or around 40lbs.
These ride on toys are all excellent for child development, enhancing your childs hand eye coordination, large and small motor muscle skills, improving balance and encouraging imaginative outdoor play. The two seater arrangement in particular, allows children to develop a sense of sharing and having fun with friends.
The stylish design of this Barbie ride on jeep and the fun to be had from this delightful car make this an all round winner.
