Electric sports car for kids can be test-driven in Bristol

A tiny electric sports car will be tested for the first time at Cribbs Causeway by 'drivers' aged between four to ten years old. Bristol will be one of the first locations in the world to see the brand new EV being tested.

The British-made Firefly Sport car is a scaled down model and has been specifically designed to let youngsters experience the thrill of driving. The opportunity to have driving lessons in the 2.1 metre long car is being offered at the Young Driver’s venue in Cribbs Causeway, starting from May 27 on selected dates.

Young Driver specialises in driving lessons and experiences for those under legal driving age. Sister company, Young Driver Motor Cars (YDMC) is producing the new electric sports car at their workshop in the Midlands. YDMC has been working with a team of experts from Jaguar Land Rover, MG, Aston Martin, Rover and BMW.
