In the article it is said to be a "SPORTrax Awesome XL", which does
not appear to be a Powerwheels product.
It is described as 4WD, and is remote controllable (for parental
override) as well as the normal occupant-controllable.
Perhaps most importantly, it requires 2 12-volt batteries (12V 10Ah
per the product description; Powerwheels use a pair of 6-volt), and
the batteries do *not* appear to be included! So, it is entirely
possible that the buyer of this toy installed inappropriate
batteries:

Ah; thanks Roger! It clearly is NOT a Powerwheels product. "Awesome XL"
appears to be the manufacturer.
It will be interesting to see more info on this story.
