The Firefly Young Driver Experience is designed for children aged 4-10, giving them an exciting opportunity to learn basic driving skills such as steering, braking, and speed control—all in a real (but miniature) car. Young drivers can enjoy navigating a specially designed driving zone, created by automotive experts to provide a fun and educational experience.

Renowned automotive designer Chris Johnson crafted the Firefly, a unique two-seater vehicle built specifically for young drivers. These mini cars feature independent suspension, disc brakes, twin electric motors, and rack-and-pinion steering, ensuring a realistic driving experience. Powered by twin lithium batteries, the Firefly can reach speeds of up to 10 mph, offering kids an exciting yet safe introduction to the world of driving.
