We’re here trying to get accustomed to the idea the future is one with no place for the almighty Land Rover Defender when all of the sudden the Brits unveil this concept. They waited for the show to kick off in Frankfurt, but you know how they say, it’s better late than never.
The scale model Defender is here to keep the party alive and celebrate over 60 years of the vehicle’s production, being styled on the current, full-scale Defender. We're more into the classic, jungle beast model, but don’t mind us, the current issue will do too.
The kids car concept has been meticulously hand built in the UK, and the exclusive version on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show has been constructed precisely to incorporate all of the Defender’s distinctive characteristics. It features things such as the protective chequer plate, cylindrical running bars and rugged off-road tires complete with mudflaps, all helping to retain the vehicles traditional design aspects.
It also has authentic interior details such leather finish with trimmed seats, steering wheel and rear storage. And you haven’t heard the best part yet. This pedal car is not quite an everyday toy, considering we’re talking about a mini four-wheeler that will set you back $15,500. However, Land Rover made sure it will live up to their long-lasting model’s expectations.
According to the British automaker, the little off-roader comes with real mechanical operations too. This means, young drivers will be able to pedal both forwards and backwards thanks to the drive assembly while a spring suspension and working brakes - complete with parking brake - will allow the little on to go on many big adventures.
“This is both a wonderful collector’s piece and children’s toy. It demonstrates our ability to produce goods with world class quality and attention to detail that can emulate our world class Jaguar and Land Rover cars,” Jaguar Land Rover’s Director of Branded and Licensed Goods, Lindsay Weaver said.
For those of you who feel they have been saving enough cash for a wild gift, you’ll want to know you need to wait until next spring when the Land Rover pedal concept will go on sale.
