When your kid wants a ride-on that will allow it to control the speed using a pedal, you’d want one that slows to a full stop automatically when the kid lifts its foot. An e-ride-on toy is designed for kids from ages 2 to 7, so the automatic braking will be greatly appreciated by the kid who’s not yet capable of coordinating accelerating and braking.
Bigger kids are more capable of handling two pedals. If your child is 7 or above, automatic braking won’t be necessary.
