What makes the Rubicon 1400 special
Battery Performance & Runtime
The 1400’s 12-volt rechargeable battery delivers 60-90 minutes of continuous drive time on a full charge, depending on terrain and rider weight. We recommend charging for 18 hours before first use, then 14-18 hours after each play session.
The included wall charger features automatic thermal protection to prevent overcharging. For longest battery life, avoid depleting the charge completely before recharging, and store the vehicle with a fully charged battery during winter months. Replacement batteries are available through our parts and accessories shop.
Speed Control & Safety Features
Parents control how fast their child drives with the Rubicon 1400’s dual-speed system. First gear limits speed to 2.5 mph—perfect for beginners and indoor use. Second gear unlocks 5 mph for experienced drivers tackling outdoor terrain.
The parent-controlled high-speed lockout physically prevents shifting into second gear until you decide your child is ready. Simply engage the lockout switch beneath the dashboard to restrict the vehicle to first gear only.
Traction & Terrain Capability
Monster traction tires measure 10 inches in diameter and feature deep rubber treads that grip grass, gravel, dirt paths, and pavement without damaging lawns. The wide wheelbase and low center of gravity prevent tipping during turns.
We engineered the 1400 suspension system to absorb bumps and small obstacles up to 2 inches tall, allowing smooth cruising over tree roots, curbs, and uneven ground. Steel axles and polypropylene wheel hubs withstand years of outdoor use.

Questions About the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 1400
The Rubicon 1400 is designed for children ages 3 to 7 years old, with a maximum combined weight capacity of 130 lbs. This allows two smaller riders to share the vehicle comfortably.
Younger children (3-4 years) should use first gear (2.5 mph) with the high-speed lockout engaged, while older, experienced drivers (5-7 years) can safely operate in second gear (5 mph) under parent supervision.
On a full charge, the 12-volt battery delivers 60-90 minutes of continuous drive time. Actual runtime depends on rider weight, terrain type, and driving speed.
Flat pavement and lighter riders yield longer runtime, while hills, grass, and maximum weight reduce battery duration. We recommend charging for 18 hours before first use, then 14-18 hours after each play session to maintain optimal battery health.

The Power-Lock brake system works identically in reverse, automatically stopping the vehicle when your child’s foot leaves the accelerator pedal. This makes backing up and maneuvering in tight spaces safe and easy.
Routine maintenance is minimal and straightforward. Clean the exterior with mild soap and water, avoiding direct spray on electrical components. Lubricate the axles monthly with white lithium grease, and inspect tires for debris after each use.
Check all screws and bolts monthly, as vibration can loosen hardware over time. Store the vehicle indoors or beneath a waterproof cover to protect wiring and battery connections. During winter storage, fully charge the battery and recharge it every 60 days to prevent deterioration.
