Toys and Games Reviews of Little Tikes Cozy CoupeCustomer Review: A car is always a great adventure. Summary: 5 Stars
Little ones love this car. My three-year-old companion and I were at her playgroup. There were two of these little cars among the toys, and we played with one. I would pull her to the top of the small incline and let the car go. She drove it and actually did try to avoid hitting other kids. Soon a young boy joined us, and they were racing down the incline -- at which time I did not have to ferry the car up in order that she could go down. They played together until they drew too much attention from other children who then wanted to race the cars too. There is very little that is more delightful than hearing a child's laughter; the play yard was filled with giggles. (5 stars for enjoyment and education.)
Later, at home, my three-year-old companion rode her tricycle and let her little (13-14 month old) sister "use" her car. She also loved it, but we did have to watch to make sure she did not slip through the opening where her feet were. She was a little too short, but a taller child should have no problem. The recommended age is 18 months to 4 years, if a child is riding her trike, or skating on her Barbie learning skates, or zipping (okay, a slow zip) around on her scooter by then, she might not be as interested. 1-3 year olds cannot help but love it.
It takes minimal storage space, which can be outside because it is easy to clean. The molded plastic is strong and does not come apart. The colors are bright, and even the ones in the play yard had not faded. 5 stars for durability.
I received a question from a mom who has this toy and the wheels don't turn directions. I have been watching the twins, and they are able to turn the car using the steering wheel. So, if you get one that does not change the directions, it is defective.

Description of Little Tikes Cozy CoupeYou can't go wrong with a classic. The newly updated Cozy Coupe offers extras sure to impress young drivers, who will notice the difference as soon as they slide behind the wheel. The durable yellow-and-red exterior looks familiar, but inside drivers enjoy a new, higher seat back and rear storage. The caster front wheels enable a small turning radius for maneuverability. Car measures approximately 32.25"L x 17.50"D x 32.25"H. This sturdy plastic car gives toddlers and young preschoolers the basic thrills of a real car, while parents can relax, knowing that this cherry-red sports car can go only as fast as their kids' little feet can carry them. Children sit on a bench-style driver's seat and poke their legs through to the ground. When they start walking, the car begins to scoot. The front wheels swirl like stroller wheels, making them especially responsive to the steering wheel. The front dash features a pretend key with a Little Tikes key chain and a horn button that beeps when pushed. A small storage bin in back can carry traveling gear or simply a stash of road snacks. Approximately 35 inches tall, 25 inches long, and 16 inches wide. --Gail Hudson
