Made by Peg Perego and licensed by Piaggio, inventors of the original Vespa in post-WWII Italy, this is the child's version of the classic European scooter. The sturdy molded plastic frame fully encloses the motor, wiring, and gearbox for safety, and evokes the iconic "monocoque", or single-shell, unibody steel-chassis design of the original models, intended to protect riders from road dirt. The scooter's two-speed electric motor propels children up to 85 lbs. at 2 1/2 and 5 mph on a 12V battery across dirt, grass, and sidewalks with a press of the foot accelerator. A foot brake brings the vinyl-capped non-skid wheels to a safe stop. Includes working headlight, horn, flashing haza rd lights, and electric engine sounds, and a glove box in the dash and a rear storage box. Two rear-view mirrors provide additional authentic detail. With removable training wheels and kickstand. Ages 3 to 7. Requires two AA batteries for sounds and lights (not included). Made in Italy. The manufacturer has confirmed that this item meets U.S. Federal toy safety standards for lead. 42" L x 20 1/2" W x 30 1/4" H. (42 lbs.)
