Little Tikes Cozy Coupe

Cozy Coupe hit stores in 1979. The car featured the now iconic red chassis, yellow roof, a trunk, and working doors. The thoughtful design helped to minimize the risk of tipping over and the scale accommodated most children ranging from 18 months to five years old. Sales soared and, by 1991, Cozy Coupe was America’s top-selling automobile. Cozy Coupe gave toddlers their first bit of autonomy from their parents, helped to fuel their imaginations, and encouraged development of motor skills—all tools needed to navigate through life.
