As much as McLaren has expanded its customer base
with the launch of the Sports Series, it still has far more fans than it has
customers for its exotic supercars. And not all of them can afford to spend six
figures on a set of wheels. Heck, not all of them can even drive yet – at least
not a real car, anyway.
That, we might surmise, is what prompted McLaren to
launch a pint-sized electric P1 last year. And now it's released a 570S for
even smaller kids.
Perfect for a ride around the block or down to the
park, the push toy was created not with the similarly named stroller company MacLaren, but with The Step 2 Company out of Ohio. It's
designed to look like the new 570S Spider, but as you can see, it's a lot smaller.
It still packs in the features, though, from the flat-bottomed steering wheel
and four smooth-riding Whisper Wheels to the multiple cupholders and storage
compartments for snacks. Just don't go looking for the twin-turbo V8 under the
plastic bodywork.
The McLaren 570S Push Sports Car is launching in
Ventura Orange exclusively on Amazon next month before extending to other
retailers, with an MSRP of US$ 80 – which doesn't seem like much for a McLaren,
whatever the size.
