Broon F8 Electric

One catch, you have to be 5 and under

The new child-sized electric "supercar" will make you wish you were a kid again.

The company refers to their product, the Broon F8, as "the ultimate toy of wonders". This sophisticated vehicle has the design of a high-class sports car, but the functionality of a remote controlled pedal car.

With a leather bucket seat, four-point harness, coil spring suspension, and a voiced visual guidance system the F8 leaves your old Power Wheels ride-on in the dust.

The Broon F8 can reach a top speed of 10 mph; double that of traditional battery-operated toy cars. The fully electric vehicle even has a 7-inch Andriod tablet that serves as a dashboard and control panel for your youngster.

A Bluetooth-based remote control allows both child and parent to control the toy without even sitting behind the wheel. There is even a feature that warns the user when the car is leaving the range of the controller and, if the connection is lost, the vehicle will automatically stop.

The third generation Broon will you cost between $895 and $1,000, according to Wired.com, depending on the option package. It is meant for children aged five and younger.

I love the way the website is laid out like its a real supercar

Funnily enough it's not a bad looking design, looks like a VW concept car and I could see it scaling up to proper size quite well. I posted it here because it has to be the most advanced car like 'toy' ever made for kids with proper engineering and wanted to see what people thought of the design. 10 MPH... that's worrying

Ah, but an adult can control it remotely by Bluetooth, so we can have fun too!

Edit: I'm sold on the red one.

Doesn't seem like bad value. I was expecting at least $5,000.

I'M WAY TOO OLD FOR THIS!

I'm so old, I could get theoretically drive a real car!

Except I'm not in a rush to get my license.

I'll take the red one. If I was small enough anyway. Sounds like a cool toy for the a grand. When will they make one that an adult could fit in?

That actually looks pretty damn cool.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Someone photoshop it into a real car, stat!

One seater ? I'll pass.

I can't pick up chicks with it.

 

[Lizard]

Is it bad that I am almost 21 and I kind of want one?

I can't pick up chicks with it.

You can, you just have to be... creative.

 

[yabiggoose]

Give them something to sit on other than a seat.

It's illegal to pull 5 year olds where I live.

I think.... I get what you mean

[Nessy]

Iv'e given it a lot of thought... And yep, i'm convinced i can shoehorn myself into that car. *places order*

 

[Northstar]

It's illegal to pull 5 year olds where I live.

I probably should have put a little more thought into that post.

 

[JMoney]

Surprising that it's so cheap. I'd get one of these then a V-Twin motor from Harbor freight to put in it. It would be a go-kart with a body.

 

[SVT Cobra GT]

Sod the kids. I want one!!

 

[kikie]

Let's start a petition to make a real full sized car for adults. Not meant as a toy but a daily car or trackday car or whatever you want to use it for.

For children aged 5 and under

This is very bad news, if you are 6 years old.
