Volvo’s recent announcement does not mention that this XC Coupe is a plastic car designed for children between one and three years of age, and the delightfully tricky camera work in the video leads you to believe that it is indeed a real car, all the way up to until the very end.
Despite being nothing more than a plastic shell with some fancy bits slapped on, the cute little car is actually pretty impressive. The coupe has built-in headlights and taillights that operate on a timer. It comes in either silver or “Crash Test Orange,” with the latter featuring the same kind of crash test markings that the real test vehicles use, along with a “Volvo Safety Centre” badge. There’s even a horn in case things get a little bit crazy in the driveway.
The toys are on sale right now, and the Volvo store shows that they have over 300 of each color in stock and ready for shipping. If you’ve always wanted a Volvo of your own but could never afford it, you might want to pick one up and unleash your inner child.
