Tesla for toddlers? Elon Musk’s mini Model Y now comes in children’s size
Father of six and the world’s 4th-richest man, Elon Musk recently had a baby boy called X Æ A-12 with his singer girlfriend Grimes; will the newest addition get his own Tesla Model Y to race around in?
If you happen to abide by the rule that no family can achieve true synergy without matching Teslas, you’re in luck: the EV maker recently teamed up with a century-old toy company to shrink one of the most recognisable electric cars out there.
The result? A miniature ride-on version of Tesla’s new Model Y.
Radio Flyer, the toy company behind the famous Little Red Wagon, joined forces with Tesla to create the My First Model Y. The product launched on August 18, and it’s meant for children 18 months to four years of age.
Radio Flyer designed the toy Model Y as a replica of Tesla’s big version, and it comes with functioning steering, a honking horn and an ergonomic seat. It costs US$99.99, and the company said that shipments will begin in early September.
This isn’t the first time Radio Flyer and Tesla have worked together. The companies designed a toy Model S for older kids in 2016, with its recommended age ranging from 3 to 8 years old.
