TM Cheetah 6 Green
The TrailMaster Cheetah 6 is the entry point into the Cheetah lineup — slightly smaller than the Cheetah 8, purpose-built for young adventurers ages 4 to 9 and up to 5'4" tall. It's equipped with a 163cc, 5.5 HP horizontal OHV engine and a torque converter CVT transmission, giving it a smooth, easy takeoff and a top speed of 24 mph — plenty of fun without being more than a young driver can handle. Parents get real peace of mind with a remote start/kill switch and a built-in speed governor to dial back top speed while a rider is still learning, on top of a 4-point safety seat belt and hydraulic disc brake. Available now at our Southeast Houston showroom.
Six Things That Make The Cheetah 6 The Right First Kart
A kid-sized footprint and a manageable top speed are the headlines — but the Cheetah 6's real advantage is parent-controlled safety features built right in.
A 163cc, 5.5 HP horizontal OHV engine paired with a torque converter CVT transmission gives the Cheetah 6 a smooth, easy takeoff with a top speed of 24 mph. A manual choke makes cold-weather starts easy, and it's EPA certified.
A built-in speed governor lets parents dial back the top speed while a young rider is still learning, and a remote start/kill switch puts final control of the engine in an adult's hands from a distance — real peace of mind for a first kart.
A 4-point safety seat belt keeps young drivers secured in place, backed by a hydraulic rear disc brake and a pull-cord kill switch as an additional manual safety backup at the driver's seat.
The adjustable seat ranges from 28" to 32" pedal-to-seat-back, accommodating the 4–9 age range and fitting riders up to 5'4" — so it grows along with your child instead of being outgrown in a season.
Bold, dramatic body panels are paired with an LED headlight package, giving the Cheetah 6 the same eye-catching styling as its bigger siblings in the lineup — a real go-kart look, sized right for smaller riders.
Standard equipment includes an automatic CVT with reverse, a parking brake, fenders, a canopy top, and a cargo rack — the same core feature set as the rest of the Cheetah family, scaled down to kid size.
