Question 7

How Heavy is a Bumper Car Ride?

Accepted Answer

According to the types of bumper cars, this question should be divided into three parts to answer as follow:

A normal ceiling grid bumper car’s weight mainly includes the weight of the chassis, motor, car body, and tail conducting rod. So, the appropriate weight varies from around 200kg to 300kg. A sky-net bumper car for kids is lighter than an adult bumper car ride. For example, a children's ceiling grid bumper car weighs 100kg-200kg.

The weight of a ground grid bumper car mainly includes the weight of the chassis and motor and car body. Its weight is about 150kg-200kg around. However, a ground grid kiddie bumper car weighs 100kg-150kg around.

As the limitation of battery technology in the world, batteries' weight is hard to cut it down.

A battery-operated bumper car weighs 50kg-100kg.

Question 8

When Were the Bumper Cars Invented?

Accepted Answer

The history of bumper cars began on the East Coast of the U.S. Bumper cars are one of those uniquely American inventions that were designed for nothing more than sheer fun. They’ve been around for almost 100 years, but people still like to rent them for parties or drive them to the park playground. The cars became known as dodgems in other countries. A man named Victor Levand invented the original bumper car early in the 20th century. Max and Harold Stoehrer, brothers from Massachusetts, took the concept a step further, patenting the first bumper cars in 1920. In the late 1920s, the Stoehrers’ design was improved and became a staple in U.S. arcades and amusement parks for decades.

Today’s bumper cars are entirely safe, with substantial bumpers that still let you feel the crash, but without the whiplash of years ago. DAMO bumper cars are easy to operate.
