Ottawa, ON, Canada (PRWEB) October 22, 2015 -- PlaSmart Inc., a Canadian-based, international distributor that selects products that are smart, simple, and fun is honored to announce that The Original PlasmaCar (http://plasmacar.com ) has earned a place on Amazon.com’s 2015 Holiday Toy List (http://www.amazon.com/gp/holidaytoylist ).

About The Original PlasmaCar®
PlasmaCar® continues to intrigue and fascinate after thirteen years on the market. Riders simply sit, put their feet up, turn the steering wheel, and away they go – up to 6 mph on smooth, flat surfaces. See PlasmaCar in action (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xK1JQ1UPjZg&feature=youtu.be ) on PlasmaCar’s website. Not just for young children, PlasmaCar supports up to 220 lbs. so parents and grandparents can take PlasmaCar for a spin, too. While PlasmaCar was designed as a ride-on toy for kids three and up, older kids re-discover and re-purpose PlasmaCar for competitions and tricks. Adults, university students, and employee groups hold PlasmaCar races for team-building and fund-raising purposes.
PlasmaCar holds the prestigious Oppenheim Toy Portfolio platinum seal. “A long-time best-seller on Amazon.com and in retail stores around the world, it is no surprise that PlasmaCar caught the attention of Amazon’s toy experts, the toy buyers and editors who hand-pick the hottest products for kids of all ages and interests”, says PlaSmart President, Tim Kimber.
PlasmaCar® History
In December 2002, while walking through a mall in Ottawa, Canada, Timothy Kimber met Bin Chen. Mr. Chen was in business importing products from China to sell at retail. One of those products was an unusual ride-on toy that was not powered by batteries, gears, or pedals, but by moving the steering wheel back and forth. Kimber negotiated the rights to distribute and market the product under the name PlasmaCar and, at the beginning of 2003, Kimber founded PlaSmart Inc.
