Like it's bigger brother this is a fully licensed Kids VW Beetle Push Along Ride on Car that allows those too young to control a fully electric kids' car to have as much fun using their own energy. The attention to detail is just incredible and with its ease of access, this is sure to be their go-to Ride-on for a while!
I ordered the classic Beetle push along for my Grandson's 1st birthday. It arrived really quickly and looks great, I'm sure my Grandson will love it, - he's a Beetle enthusiast, just like his Grandad! Just a few things that would make it even better:
When ordering, you're able to create a personalized registration number. These come as stickers which are far too big for the number plate. When I contacted Riiroo to ask whether I'd been sent the wrong size, I received a blunt reply telling me they are one-size and I need to cut them. To trim them to size would mean losing the flag and some of the lettering. Printing them on the correct size stickers would be all that is needed to make this extra little touch actually work.
The car itself seems reasonably well-made, but again just a few little design issues that if addressed, would improve it:
It has working USB and Aux plug sockets; again a great unexpected little extra, however there is no space to store any device you might actually plug in. A simple thing like a channel for the wire would mean the device could be stored under the lift up seat. This would enable a device to actually be used to play songs etc. whilst the car is being played with.
The box and manual illustrate additional extras: adults handle for parents to push along, side safety rails, and a roof canopy. These would be fantastic additional options, but unfortunately are not available to order from the Riiroo website. When I contacted them to ask if they may be able to help me source them, I got a rather curt reply just telling me that they don't stock them.
In summary, great little car, reasonably priced, well-packaged and arrived quickly, but the points above mean I can't award 5 stars.

Very disappointed
Our little car was purchased as a Christmas present fir our grandson. My husband who is an engineer and an electrician put the car together. We inserted brand new batteries as instructed. There was an immediate smell of burning and the batteries became very hot. The burning smell was coming from behind the dashboard. My husband thinks that something is shorting on the circuit board. I emailed the company, phoned the company and messaged the company on Instagram but did not get a response. I am concerned that this car presents a potential fire hazard so I have removed the batteries. Very disappointed to have a problem and no response from the company other than an email asking me to review the product.

Disappointed
I purchased the VW sit and ride car for my granddaughter for Christmas. Site states to age of 5. Arrived swiftly,but the box states the age 18 to 36 months! a lot of difference.l also wanted a sit and ride scooter which is out of stock with an email option for when back in stock. I have now discovered that the scooters are NOT being stocked anymore.I would never ever have purchased one gift for my granddaughter without something for my grandson. Very upset customer.

Perfect only 1 question
This arrived swiftly and was generally easy to put up. If your ordered plates they may come separately with royal mail so dont worry, I found the plates far too big to put on the vdub though sadly. On the bus it shows a parent handle and sun canopy for younger children, I was wondering where I could possibly buy this as it'd be the perfect little addition? All in all I would purchase from RiiRoo again, stress and hassle free!

DELIVERY TRACKING & UPDATES
Don't leave it too late!
Keep an eye out for your order via the respective carriers tracking system. You'll find the courier as well as the tracking number specified on your order despatch email.
If you need help with a delivery, contact our lovely support team. They'll be on hand to help.
It is important to note that most of the rates specified above are subsidised by us therefore the re-delivery charges will, in most cases, be more than we have specified above.
This becomes especially important for orders which are delivered by a specialised service where only one attempt at delivery is included.
Please keep an eye on your email/phone so you don't miss delivery. The delivery charges are quite hefty and there is no reason to spend money where we don't have to!
EASY RETURNS
Things happen :(.
For unused items, with their original packaging, you have 30 days to arrange for a return. No questions. Keep in mind that products are checked upon return, so no funny business!
For items that have gone past 30 days, please contact our support team, they are usually pretty good :)
RiiRoo™ takes every effort to supply each and every customer with a prompt and efficient delivery service and over the past 4 years our systems have evolved massively in line with our company's growth to ensure this happens.
It is important to note that our big parcels are delivered by APC (Action Express) using a pallet service. Please retain the pallet until you are sure the product is in good working order. If a return is required then the only way for it come back to us is using the same pallet service.
The stated age & height information is simply a guideline based on an average build for these age groups and should not be taken as a definite compatibility.
Please keep this in mind when making a purchase.
If you are unsure if the product you are looking at is suitable for your children, then, please feel free to contact our customer service team using the contact form linked here or using the chat functionality on our website.
Just to reiterate: the maximun age & height information is simply there to provide rough guideance and should not be taken as a guarantee.
Why don't you state minumum age guidelines?
The reason for this is simple, most electronic toys or any toy which has small parts is not suitable for children under 3 years old and as most of our product range falls in this category, we feel that the information is redundant and will only lead to confusion, therefore we don't display it.
