Three miles an hour is a lot for a child who has only just worked out where the pedal is, and most 12V trucks start at about that.

The published range here is 0.6 to 1.9 mph, top to bottom. Even the fastest setting is slower than an adult walks, and the parent remote adds three settings below it along with an emergency brake. It is a truck built for the beginning of the 3 and up band rather than the end of it.

Pickup proportions

A squared bonnet, a full width light bar across the nose and a short bed behind the cab with a storage cube in it. The bowtie badge sits in the centre of the grille and the wheels are silver against a white shell.

Size, seat and ratings

41 in long, 26 in wide and 22 in tall, with a seat 13 in by 10 in. The maker states a 66 lb maximum capacity and an age of 3 and up, and prints ASTM, CPSC CPSIA and NPS badges on the same panel.

Battery and pace

A 12V 4.5Ah rechargeable battery, two 25W motors and a published 0.6 to 1.9 mph. That upper figure is well below the 3 mph most trucks this size reach, which is the point of it.

Springs, start and surfaces

Four wheel suspension under wear resistant PP wheels, with a curve showing the slow start and stop. Asphalt, wooden floor, brick and dirt road are the four surfaces the maker names.

A pickup shape with the bowtie badge and a full width light bar.

Two shoulder points and a lap strap, with lockable doors either side.

On the parent remote, alongside three speed settings.

An open box in the bed for whatever a child brings along.

Music, stories, a horn, a power display and an AUX in.
