2019
Especially designed for the youngsters.The special ergonomy of small children has been considered and tested from the beginning of our development. Maximum safety for the first driving experience has been a major goal for us.
We equipped the SiNUS NANO with a safety belt, installed the rotating tires out of unintentional contact and added an ergonomic and sporty steering wheel. The SiNUS NANO can be autonomously operated even on smaller areas, indoor as outdoor. The very small turning radius and the incredibly easy steering make it possible. The battery capacity allows operation for a complete day without the need of recharging. When it comes to charging you can choose between changing the battery or charge by direct connection to the charger plug on the battery. What could be more fun than being able to drive mummy or daddy around, knowing that they can take over the control if necessary? |
Mobile APP and LCD DisplayWith help of the NANO APP you as operator/owner are able to control or adjust plenty of functions e. g. unlocking the electronic rear cover lock just with one click. The handling is very easy.
The LCD display shows the battery status and the remaining driving time. LED Lights and LightshowBig LED front and back lights in driving mode alternate with an attention arousing lightshow while waiting for customers.
All lights are freely programmable by the operator with „our“ mobile APP. |

2002 | START OF THE 4TH EVOLUTIONARY PHASE
World class
Sportsmen aiming at top performance also put emphasis on top material. It is the same with Michael Schumacher. The seven-time Formula One World Champion early recognised the potential and quality of RiMO karts and has been placing his trust in our products for 15 years now. The result is a close and trustful relationship with winners on both sides. While it is our endeavour to provide the best material only, it is the kart track operator’s major goal to obtain reliable, cost-effective and visually attractive products. Considering these aspects, consistently market-oriented solutions have been developed since the RiMO EVO 1, resulting in the latest RiMO SiNUS iON. Trust in our world-class material and opt for the best. www.ms-kartcenter.de |

The rest is history.
