Features and action
The appearance of scooters with pipes, like the exhaust ducts of "big" cars and motorcycles, was in 2016. The fume discharge is simulated using a pair of turbines. Simple water is poured inside. A scooter with turbines starts emitting steam as soon as a special button is pressed. For a clearer imitation, a backlighting system is used to demonstrate:
- "steam";
- "Fire";
- "smoke".

This solution is considered very beautiful and is liked by almost all children. A special heating system allows you to quickly bring the water to the desired temperature and evaporate it. However, the steam turns out to be pretty cool and practically not dangerous for babies. You can often come across a mention of models with smoke - but, of course, this is just simple steam, not smoke.
Most often, water is poured into all turbines, and its consumption is approximately 100 ml; on 1 gas station, the device will work all daylight hours.
Mostly there are three-wheeled turbo scooters. But you can easily find modifications with two wheels. Some variations are made with music: both based on the melodies stored in the internal memory, and with the connection of a flash card. This solution, of course, gives people more freedom than conventional performances. Sometimes there are options with illuminated headlights and a platform; this effect will look extremely elegant.
