.EzraDyer: The PolarisSports RZR 200 puts kids behind the wheel:
It is probably impractical for most parents to hand a 10-year-old the keys to a car, the way mine did. Actually, my brother was nine and I was 11 when our parents reluctantly bequeathed us a mangy Subaru GL wagon and turned us loose on the back 30. Which, don’t get me wrong, was fantastic. But not ideal, as my brother proved when he ran off the trail and into a tree, partly because he could barely see over the dashboard.
Technically, the RZR 200 is a side-by-side, meaning it’s a knobby-tired buggy. But look at the specs and the layout and it’s awfully carlike: mid-engine, electronic fuel injection, four-wheel disc brakes, independent suspension at each corner. It has two seats, a steering wheel, and an automatic transmission—a PVT, which behaves like a CVT but isn’t one, for reasons we don’t need to explore.
Ignition key, steering wheel, brake and accelerator, even a digital tach—proper stuff for an aspiring driver stuck in fifth grade.While the RZR does deliver driving writ small, it’s also an off-road toy, and my kids certainly tested it as such, seeing if they could catch some air and sling some dirt. Answer: affirmative. With seven inches of suspension travel front and rear, the RZR 200 is happy enough to get a little daylight under its tires.
Independent rear suspension, mid-engine layout, seven inches of travel: good stuff for kids inclined to catch air.The RZR 200 is rated for ages 10 to 16, but many 16-year-olds would find it a tight squeeze. And besides, once a driver’s license is a possibility, most kids I know gravitate toward cars. But until that fateful day at the DMV, the RZR 200 is a shortcut to freedom and speed, stoking enthusiasm for driving when the pavement is still a long way away.
