Power Wheels

Power Wheels is a brand of battery-powered ride-on toy cars for kids ages one to seven years old.

Peg-Perego eventually began using gel cell batteries in their wheeled machines, and the product line was launched.

[1] The Power Wheels brand name dates back to 1984, when San Francisco-based toy company Kransco acquired Pines of America, makers of battery-powered vehicles for children.

In 1999, Fisher-Price announced the Harley-Davidson Motorcycle ride-on toy[2] – which contributed to a year of record sales for the entire product line.

The latest line of Power Wheels features small-scale versions of popular real-world vehicles, including the Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Hurricane, Ford F-150, Ford Mustang,[3] Kawasaki KFX quad, Harley-Davidson motorcycle, Cadillac Escalade EXT as well as Lightning McQueen from Pixar’s film Cars, and a Thomas the Tank Engine with a circle of track.
