Race car drivers of tomorrow can get an early start with BMW’s->ke178 Baby Racer II Motorsport! Suitable for ages 1 ½-3, the Motorsport can turn any household into an optimum racetrack with as many turns and straight-aways as the floor plan will allow. Of course, your child can also just kick back and have some fun without the added pressure of becoming the next Dirk Mueller. The blue, white, and red Motorsport has a sports steering wheel facilitating U-turns, a soft seat to absorb vibrations, and big wheels to round off its sporty look. The Baby Racer can even be taken outside because of its low profile built to provide stability for any surface. The BMW Baby Racer II Motorsport was even designed to look like a real racer with its aerodynamic front spoiler, speedometer, and rev counter. Of course, a BMW would not be a BMW without its metallic logo which you can find at the front and the back.

You can purchase this beginner race car ($133.84 US) as well as other beginner race cars at www.bmw-shop.com.

Press Release

Hairpin bends behind the kitchen, cobblestones in front of dad’s pit lane, traffic-calmed noise protection zones in the living room – with the BMW Baby Racer II Motorsport, budding drivers from one and a half to three years old will master it all with their blue-white-red roadster that is ready for anything.

Its sports steering wheel makes U-turns an easy exercise for little drivers. The sporty-looking but soft seat absorbs vibrations from rough terrain. The tires can even handle delicate parquet, with rubber to ensure a silent ride and a low profile for stability on any surface. Together with the big wheels, they look really sporty, too.

Goes like a racing car – looks like one too.

The TÜV-tested BMW Baby Racer II Motorsport is designed to look like a real racing car, with an aerodynamic front spoiler, speedometer, and rev counter. The BMW logo stands out in metallic effect at the front and back.

The Baby Racer II Motorsport in blue-white-red, and other children’s vehicles, are available at selected BMW dealerships and at www.bmw-shop.com.
