Meet McLaren’s first electric vehicle, a diminutive ride-on P1 aimed at racing enthusiasts under the age of six.

Unlike the “adult rated” P1, this one features a central driving position (yes like the iconic F1), while offering an open-top experience. As for similarities, they include the signature dihedral doors and the “startling” acceleration.

In other words, it takes just two seconds for this thing to reach its maximum top speed of…3 mph (4.8 km/h), which is actually the average human walking speed.

Features include the stop/start button, a standard mp3 player and audio system and a 3-speed forward transmission with a much-needed reverse gear.

Finished in Volcano Yellow, the ‘Ride-On McLaren P1’ is available globally at selected McLaren retailers (Australia, China, Japan & New Zealand excluded) and is priced at £375.

Not a bad Christmas present for your little one, is it?
