Abstract
A toy vehicle includes a chassis, at least two wheels, and an actuating mechanism configured to couple the at least two wheels to the chassis and to move the at least two wheels between a retracted position and an extended position in which a width of each wheel of the at least two wheels is increased. The actuating mechanism includes a lever configured to be moved between a first position corresponding to the retracted position of the at least two wheels and a second position corresponding to the extended position of the at least two wheels. The actuating mechanism further may include an actuator configured to move the lever from the first position to the second position and from the second position to the first position.
