Whether you’re looking for a classic kids’ electric car, an off road kids buggy, a quad bike or an SUV, there is no shortage of options to choose from.

In this guide, we’ll look at some of the best off road ride on toys money can buy whilst detailing specifications and allowing you, as a parent, to decide which ride on toy is the perfect choice for your little adventurer.

What makes off-road toys more fun?

There is nothing quite like the thrill of an off-road toy. As your little one enters the driver’s seat of their first ride on car, watch as they embody a new level of creativity, adventure and freedom – all whilst learning to be responsible for a working vehicle; what’s not to love?

Parents are often amazed at the vivid imaginations, stories, and scenarios that their sprogs can conjure up. Off-road toys open up kids to a world of role-play, like cops and robbers, F1 racers and special agents, you name it – the list goes on!

It’s not all about fun, though. Parents will be surprised at the other positive effects of having an off-road toy. These toys have been found to encourage a child’s early development skills whilst increasing their confidence and independence as they learn new skills and take on the world (or the garden, whichever is easier), one step at a time.
