Ride-on trikes give toddlers their first taste of riding with three wheels instead of two, so there is no balancing to learn and no stabilisers to fit. Every model in this category runs on a 6V battery, the gentlest option we stock and the one we recommend for the youngest riders. As children grow and want more speed and range, the natural next steps are our 12V electric motorbikes for kids and later the 24V electric motorbikes for kids.

Prices here run from €96.57 to €114.99, VAT and shipping included. A few to start with:

• Kids electric trike MiniBike 6V — leather seat and LED, €96.57, the most affordable way in.
• Star 6V trike with LED lights and sounds — €97.57, for toddlers who like a bit of noise and light.
• MotorFuture 88 6V trike — €114.99, the top of the range here.

Not sure which one? Look at the seat and the extras rather than the badge: at this age the lights and sounds are what keep them riding. Free shipping in 7-9 days. All trikes come with a 2-year warranty.
