Bottom Line

A step up from most of the battery operated toy ATV models for kids.

Pros

Rubber tires like a real ATV. Holds up to 120 pounds. Goes faster than other kids' models at up to 9.5 mph. Quiet operation. Battery lasts for a good amount of time. No problems on rough terrain or inclines. Easy to operate.

Cons

While the manufacturer officially recommends this for teens. It will likely be too small for most teens to enjoy and is better for pre-teen children.

Bottom Line

A low power ATV that is suitable for the littlest riders and doesn't go very fast.

Pros

Working headlights. Max speed 2.5 mph, which is good for little ones. 6V battery. Goes together quickly. Rubber grips on the tires. Buttons for engine sound and horn sound. Battery lasts a long time.

Cons

This is a rather small model of youth ATV. Your children will outgrow it quickly.

A toddler product ATV without a motor that looks just like mom or dads, and that talks and lights up.

Pros

Push bar on back makes this great for kids just learning to walk. Lights up and makes sounds. Doubles as a walker for toddler. Lightweight. Can be used outside or inside. Holds up under rough play.

This is not powered by a battery. It is a self-powered product that is just for play.

Youth ATVs range from ATV-style Power Wheels that are meant for younger kids to more powerful ATVs for older kids. ATVs meant for younger kids often feature popular children’s characters and tend to have a maximum speed of 2-3 mph. Models designed for older kids look like smaller versions of adult ATVs and can get close to 10 mph. If you’re looking for something that doesn’t require a battery, there are also self-powered ATVs that require your little one to peddle or push the vehicle with with their feet. In general, youth ATVs are meant for pre-teens and younger — they tend to be too small for teenagers.
