Car / motorcycle brand
The brand of a real car or motorcycle from which a children's electric car is copied.
Many toy electric cars are made in the form of copies of real-life technology — this makes them more attractive to children. Most often, such devices copy the most expensive and prestigious models. When choosing, note that different types of transport can be produced within the same brand: for example,
BMW copies can be both cars and motorcycles.
Copies of such brands of real cars and motorcycles are now on the market:
Alfa Romeo,
Aston Martin,
Audi,
Bentley,
BMW,
Bugatti,
Chevrolet,
Ducati,
Ferrari,
Fiat,
Ford,
Hummer,
Jaguar,
Jeep,
Lamborghini,
Land Rover,
Maserati,
Maybach,
Mercedes-Benz,
Mini,
Nissan,
...>Porsche,
Rolls-Royce,
Toyota,
Volkswagen,
Volvo.
Max. baby's weight
The maximum weight of a child for which the electric car is designed. For double models (see "Number of seats"), this paragraph indicates the total maximum load — that is, the maximum total weight of both riders.
It is worth choosing according to this indicator with a certain margin — this will give a guarantee in case of emergency situations (like hitting a wheel in a pit). And if an electric car is purchased “for growth”, with the expectation of using it for several years after purchase, it is advisable to take a larger stock.
Max. speed
The maximum speed that the car can develop under normal conditions is on a flat road with good coverage.
This indicator is directly related to the age category: the older the child, the more speed he needs. So, models for babies under 3 years old usually go no faster than 4 – 5 km/h — this ensures safety and allows the parent to keep up with the machine without any problems; and some teenage
ATVs(age category from 7 to 8 years old) are capable of accelerating to 30 km/h or even more.
There are cars with speed limiters to make driving safer; see "Options" for details.
Number of batteries
The number of batteries that an electric car needs to operate. Relatively simple, light and slow models cost one battery, in more solid technology there may be
several batteries — for example, among ATVs of the older age category (see "Appearance") there are models for 3 or even 4 batteries.
Voltage
The nominal voltage of the battery installed in the machine.
When selected, this parameter is of secondary importance: it can be useful when comparing several models in terms of battery capacity (see above), but it practically does not affect the performance of the machine. In addition, battery voltage data may be needed to find a spare battery or non-original charger.
Power
The power of the electric motor installed in the electric vehicle; if there are several engines, their total power is usually indicated.
The more powerful the engine, the faster and/or passable the machine will be, the steeper climbs it will be able to take and the easier it will be to cope with more weight, all other things being equal. At the same time, a powerful motor has a high power consumption and requires more capacious and powerful batteries, and this parameter significantly affects the cost. In general, we can say that for an ordinary user, power is rather a secondary parameter: when choosing an electric car, it is more convenient to look at the directly claimed speed, carrying capacity and other practical characteristics.
Continuous driving time
The longest time during which an electric vehicle is able to drive continuously without recharging the battery. Similar to the driving range, it is a conditional indicator and in fact it is less than the claimed one, however, different models can be compared with each other in terms of continuous driving time. For more information on these points, see "Running Range".
