It has the same fun value as its larger counterpart, and it cuts quite a
figure both on the home stretch and in the playground - it's the BMW 6
Series Convertible for children. This nifty single-seater is available
in two versions - either as a pedal car with easy-turn comfort pedals
or as a battery-powered electric car. With a design that clearly echoes
the large-scale original, driving and playtime fun are guaranteed.
Non-slip rubber tyres give riders that real go-cart feeling too.
Everybody's dream car: shiny metallic red and open-topped, of course. In
6-Volt mode, the electric car can reach four kilometres an hour, while
in 12-Volt mode, it reaches speeds of up to eight kilometres an hour.
In addition to forward and reverse gears, the electric convertible also
has an electronic speedometer. When fully charged, the battery
provides around 90 minutes of driving and playing fun. A battery charge
status display indicates in good time when the electric car needs to be
plugged into the power socket to be 'filled up' again. It takes just 15
minutes for the battery to charge fully, so that young drivers can get
back out on the road. There's no need for a key to start the electric
engine, as the vehicle is simply switched on and off with a switch
located near the footbrake. The stable construction of the BMW 6
Series Convertible ensures maximum driving safety. Both models have
been approved by the TÜV and are made from non-harmful materials.
The cars are also equipped with an electric horn. These sporty little
numbers are suitable for children aged between four and seven. The BMW
6 Series Convertible as a pedal car or fitted with an electric engine
can be obtained from selected BMW dealers or via the Internet at: www.bmw-shop.com/lifestyle.
