Abstract
A rideable toy, e.g., for children, provides space-saving features compared to similar rideable toys. The toy includes a base structure with a set of driving wheels and a motor. An inflatable body is attachable to the base structure. The inflatable body introduces a space-saving feature, as it can be deflated when not in use, thus saving on storage and shipping space. The toy may also include safety features, such as electrodes that signal incorrect attachment of the inflatable body and thereby prevent operation of the toy. The toy can be controlled either by a dedicated remote control or through an application on a mobile device. The toy maty also achieve space savings from a foldable or inflatable seat, hinges to fold the base, and specific interlocking mechanisms.
