The most innovative battery powered ride-on for children was created by Radio Flyer in collaboration with Tesla to ensure the highest levels of fun and performance. You can pre-order now and it will ship to you in May 2016: www.radioflyer.com/tesla ] The Tesla Model S for Kids is due for release in May 2016 Thanks to a collaboration between veteran toy maker Radio Flyer and Elon Musk's Tesla Motors, 3-8 year-old electric car enthusiasts will soon be able to hit the parks and sidewalks in their very own Model S. The single seater can zoom along at up to 6 mph for around 6 miles before needing to hit the plug-in charger for a top up. The imaginatively-named Tesla Model S for Kids is reported to be the first young driver's vehicle to be powered by FlightSpeed Li-ion batteries. It takes around 3 hours to charge, and proud young owners can mirror the charging behaviors of grown-ups by plugging the included cable right into the mini model's own charging port. The battery pack can also be popped out and topped up away from the car. Youngsters are promised up to 6 miles (9.6 km), or 1-2 hours, of continuous driving fun per charge with the standard battery pack, or 9 miles (or up to 3 hours) with the optional premium battery. There are two speed modes, plus reverse. The first will see the cute little electric car zoom up to 3 mph (4.8 km/h), while the second (Insane Mode?) tops out at a nail-biting 6 mph. The 40.5 lb (18 kg) Model S features working headlights, storage under the hood, an onboard sound system for plugging in a music player and 9-inch diameter, 4-inch thick wheels. A choice of colors is available, with Radio Flyer promising an "authentic Tesla Model S premium paint finish." Buyers can also choose the rim color and add a personalized license plate and parking sign. The video below introduces the Tesla Model S for Kids, but best not show your kids unless you're ready to part with the US$499 ticket price. The car is due for release this coming May.

What you’re really paying for when you buy an electric car like the Tesla Model S isn’t the savings on fuel, or even the whisper quiet ride. You’re paying for the ability to be smug and self-righteous to drivers in gas-powered cars, and now even little kids can start making others feel guilty about driving a gas-guzzler. Tesla Motors teamed up with Radio Flyer—the company most famous for its red metal wagons—to create a miniature version of the Model S that uses similar battery technology to achieve a top speed of six miles per hour. And before you start to consider it as a cheaper alternative to a real Tesla Model S, keep in mind this $500 version—shipping some time in May—can only support drivers up to 81 pounds. Almost every last detail of Radio Flyer’s Tesla Model S is borrowed from the full-sized car, including the turbine-inspired hub caps, the working headlights, the color options, the battery charging port, and even the optional $50 indoor car cover. Other options include a more powerful battery offering about 50 percent more run time, and even a custom vanity license plate in case you weren’t 100 percent sure if your kid driving around a tiny replica Tesla Model S wasn’t already obnoxious enough.
