What Can I Expect

This is the very sporty Firefly under 10 driving experience! Time to leave the driving to the very youngest motoring fans with these lessons for 4 to 9 year olds. And don't worry, there's no panic about reaching the pedals, these cars are electric and have been specially designed for younger children to drive.

And when we say these are electric cars for kids, they are nothing like the toy cars you can buy everywhere. The two seater Firefly Sport roadster has been designed by a proper car designer. They did all the fancy drawings so that the clever automotive engineers could do all the measuring and complicated calculations. Then the highly skilled technicians went to work with their machines and tools to actually build these fab little cars.

Every single one is hand built in the Midlands, which is the home of British car manufacturing. Each one has a proper chassis. That's to say there's the proper steering wheel and steering column, suspension, disc brakes and pretty much everything else you'd find in a car - but in miniature. There are even indicators!

The reason why these cars for younger kids are so realistic is because the team behind the concept wanted a smaller version of a real sports car, so that the very youngest children could have a go at driving responsibly. And that's exactly what happens.

The temporary road layout set-ups feature junctions, roundabouts and your typical Highway Code signage, but in reduced dimensions. Baby drivers will learn about what driving on the roads really feels like. And they can't overcook it in these mini motors, as the maximum speed is 10mph.

The very clever car has an automatic sensor to detect objects, which will instinctively cut the power. Handily, there's also a remote cut-off switch, so parents or instructors can magically stop the car from a distance!

And don't forget, this very stylish 100% electric FireFly sports car is a two seater, so fledgling motorists can invite a passenger to join them to encourage and coach youngsters in the ways of the road. A great gift for anyone under 10 to get some (very cool) driving experience!
