The Hottest Ride-On Toys for Kids in Australia Right Now
Looking for a gift that’s guaranteed to bring a smile to their face? Ride-on toys have become a staple in Aussie households, thanks to their mix of fun, movement and imagination. From mini cars to rugged tractors, scooters to jeeps, these toys go beyond ordinary fun. They're a full-on adventure for kids to experience.
Here’s a look at the hottest ride-on toys in Australia right now (and why parents love them too).
1. Electric Ride-On Toys
The classic Ride On Toys range starts here. Electric ride-on toys often come with working lights, realistic sounds, and parental remotes for added safety. From sleek sports cars to adorable convertibles, there’s a model for every kid’s personality.
Look out for features like adjustable seats and seat belts. Many models now include Bluetooth speakers or USB ports, so your little one can cruise to their favourite songs.
2. Kids Electric Motorbikes
Kids' electric motorbikes are perfect for children who love a bit of speed. With sturdy wheels and training support for beginners, these bikes are both thrilling and safe. Some even come with stabilisers and handlebar grips to help with balance.
Parents love them for encouraging coordination and outdoor play, while kids love the sound and movement.
3. Toy Jeeps for Kids
Want something with a bit more grunt? A toy jeep for kids is ideal for backyard explorers and park adventurers. These tough little 4x4s often come with all-terrain wheels, twin seats, and even mini roll bars. Perfect for siblings who want to ride together or solo drivers who want to feel like they’re on a mission.
4. Ride-On Kids Tractors
Little farmers in the making will go crazy for a ride-on kids' tractor. Complete with trailers, horn sounds and functioning levers, these tractors make pretend play feel real. Some are manually operated with pedals, while others are electric, offering even more fun.
Ideal for large yards or outdoor spaces where they can pull around their toys, garden tools or even a teddy passenger.
5. Kids Scooters
For kids who prefer something a little lighter, kids' scooters are a great ride-on option. Choose between three-wheeled models for toddlers or two-wheeled ones for older kids. They help with balance, coordination and confidence, plus they’re portable and easy to store.
Many new kids’ scooters come with light-up wheels or adjustable handlebars, making them both fun and practical.

At Ride Ons, we focus on quality, safety and performance. Instead of character-branded models, you'll find ride-on toys inspired by some of the most recognisable car brands in the world. Think Range Rover, Jeep, Mercedes, BMW and even Lamborghini.
These mini replicas are built to impress, with features like working headlights, built-in music players, and detailed interiors that mimic the real thing. The attention to design and durability means kids enjoy hours of realistic, imaginative play.
What to Look for When Choosing
- Age suitability: Make sure the toy matches your child’s age and weight.
- Safety features: Look for seat belts, remote control access, and non-slip wheels.
- Battery life: If you choose an electric model, check how long it runs and how fast it charges.
- Materials: Durable plastics and metal components will last longer, especially for outdoor use.
