Who would have expected that a McLaren P1 Spider would be fit for a child? Recent reports revealed that the British sports car maker has created a unique drivable toy version of the high-performance car complete with scissor doors and an audio system that the kids will love.

Inside, it is equipped with an air-conditioning function, installed with an MP3 audio system that houses famous nursery rhymes such as Hickory Dickory Duck and can also be incorporated with the ever famous Frozen soundtrack.

The McLaren P1 Spider Kid Edition also has powertrain features such as three forward gears and one reverse gear which would make it easier for parents to stir the child from harm's way. Also, it is able to accelerate from 0 mph to its top speed of 3mph in just a matter of two seconds.
