How to choose the right kids' vehicle with the help of the ranking
The ranking shows what other families have bought. The guide below explains what to check so the vehicle suits your child.
How the ranking is calculated
The position is based on the number of units sold at Wheelyshop during the previous full month. Sold-out products are skipped, and the list is filled with the best-selling kids' vehicles in our range.
Age and height
Every vehicle has a recommended age, body height and maximum weight on its product page. Younger children (around 3–6 years) are often best suited to an electric dirt bike or electric car with a low speed, while kids' electric scooters are usually designed for around 6–12 or 6–14 years.
Speed and riding modes
Choose a vehicle with several speed modes. Your child can then start in the lowest mode, and you can increase the speed when they are ready.
Weight, storage and tyres
Foldable models are easy to take along in the car. Pneumatic tyres and suspension give a smoother ride on gravel and uneven roads, while puncture-proof tyres need less maintenance.
Safety
A helmet should always be worn. Also read our guide What age can a child ride an electric scooter in Europe?.
