Does Not Work,
You have to be within about 1 foot from the toy for it to move. So you can imagine if the car moves, you have to move with it. So the car has no value to us since it’s remote feature doesn’t work. The car also moves sluggishly. The car doesn’t move well on any surface type. I actually bought this car for my kid based on the rave reviews listed here. But it seems to actually share the same problems that other similar remote based toy cars have (based on reviews).

|EXCELLANT TOY,
This remote car is the BEST. I will buy it for every kid I know and will recommend it to every one I know. I actually bought it for my little deaf dog. I’m sick and can’t get around good and he’s deaf. I can sit in my chair and run the car around the coffee table and my little dog barks and chases it. The car runs GREAT on carpet and has a lot of get up and go. Can’t go wrong at all purchasing this!!!!! Sure has solved our problem. Thinking of buying another one just to have on hand. I give it a FIVE STAR ACROSS THE BOARD.

|super-fun r/c for tots!,
I was looking for a simple, easy-to-control r/c car for my toddler, who was 21 months when I ordered the Chicco Johnny Coupe here on amazon.com. I am happy to say that the Johnny Coupe was an excellent choice!
The good:
- First of all, it’s cute. The bright red color and happy, smiling face are very appealing for toddlers/preschoolers and parents alike.
- The size is just right – not too big for my toddler to pick up and cart around if that’s what he’s in the mood to do, but not so small that it gets lost among his other toy cars. The remote is chunky and easy for little hands to hang onto.
- The buttons are simple – one each for forward, reverse, left and right. At the moment, my little guy is still moving the car around at random and seems delighted that pressing a different button causes the car to move a different way, but he’ll eventually grow into an understanding of the directions.
- The car is surprisingly powerful – when it bumps into a small obstruction (such as another toy) or a bump on the floor (like where the rug sits on top of the hardwood flooring), Johnny Coupe motors right along instead of getting easily stuck, which keeps my little guy from getting frustrated.
- Perhaps best of all, it’s QUIET. Parents of young children know just how obnoxiously noisy kids’ toys can be. It’s not silent – the car does make a bit of noise as it moves about – but there are no loud tire squeals, no awful fake engine sounds… just the natural-sounding zoom of a small mechanical toy zipping about.
- Of course, what’s most important is that my little guy LOVES it. Johnny Coupe has zoomed around our entire home many times in the last few months, and my son shows no sign of getting tired of this particular toy.
The only drawback:
- Batteries. You need some for the car itself as well as for the remote. With all the use Johnny Coupe gets around here, battery life is pretty short. Keep a stock of AA’s and AAA’s handy – if this car’s as popular in your home as it is in mine, you’ll need ‘em.
