Playtime 0 + minutes

Great for one-charge racing

Charging Time 0 hours

Quick compared to most budget RCs

Pros and Cons

Beginner-Friendly Controls

This RC buggy is super easy to drive, even if it’s your first time behind the wheel. The remote has smooth steering, and it doesn’t suddenly jerk or spin out like other cheap cars. Great for 8-year-olds and up!
4-Wheel Independent Suspension

Each wheel has its own shock absorber (like a real off-road car!). That means you can race over sidewalks, gravel, or playground bumps without the car flipping or breaking.
Long Battery Life

You get about 30 to 35 minutes of drive time, which is way better than most cars in this price range. That’s two SpongeBob episodes of non-stop fun. 😄
Super Durable

Kids crash. A lot. This buggy has a strong, flexible plastic shell and tough bumpers. It can survive flips, hits, and even crashes into walls.
Splash-Proof Electronics

It’s not fully waterproof like a submarine, but it can handle puddles, grass dew, and wet sidewalks. Just don’t take it for a swim.
Good Remote Range

You can drive it up to 60–80 meters away (that’s almost the length of a soccer field). Plenty of room to explore and race your friends.

🌿Not Great on Tall Grass or Rocky Trails

This buggy LOVES pavement, playgrounds, and sidewalks. But if you try to drive it through a jungle (aka your backyard grass), it might slow down or get stuck.
🔌 Long-ish Charging Time

The battery takes about 2–3 hours to charge. So if you only have one battery, you’ll have to wait between sessions. (Pro tip: get a second battery to double the fun!)
💨 Speed is Fun but Not Extreme

It goes up to 36 km/h, which is fast but not “rocket fast.” If your kid wants a crazy-fast, drift-everywhere type car, there are faster (but harder to control) options.
🛑 No Extra Battery Included

Some RC cars give you two batteries. This one usually comes with just one. You’ll want to buy a second battery if your kid likes marathon play sessions.
