The boat goes about 1-2 mph and the truck goes about 3 mph.The boat and truck can go about 15 feet before it goes out of range.The toy is very small and I reccomend use for small pools and bathtubs because of it's low range.One of the only good parts is that the directions say you recharge the power pack for 2 minutes and it lasts for 3-4 minutes, but it lasts for about 10 minutes after recharged and that it's good for people who like mini stuff, but not for people who want speed from mini stuff.The remote control only works when it's facing the vehicle.

I reccomend you to buy something for a little more money that goes faster, is bigger and has a better range.

You know the saying.....you get what you pay for...well in this case you will pay alittle and get even less! I am thankful that I gave it to my daughter & her friend as an early Christmas present and found out almost immediately that purchasing it was a mistake. I thought having a "chager" would reduce the need for batteries - but the charger operates on batteries. One good thing is it only take a few minutes to charge / bad thing is the charge only last for a few minutes.

It seemed fun while it lasted. A child can charge it and switch the engine between boat and car. Even the short charge time wasn't a big deal. BUT it broke in less than a day. I am still waiting for my return label.
