If you’re looking for a cool toy to give a kid that likes toy cars, this wall climbing car is it!
The offiicial name of this RC toy is SZJJX Wall Climber, which is just really hard to pronounce. It used to be called the Spiderman Wall Climbing Car, which was easier to say, but was confusing because it had absolutely nothing to do with the Marvel franchise.
But like Spider-Man, this thing actually does climb floors, walls, and even ceilings!

What’s Cool About the SZJJX Wall Climbing Car
This RC wall climbing car is advertised as a “zero gravity car” which is pretty cool all by itself. A suction fan works as a vacuum feature and allows the car to drive vertically up walls and even upside-down.
It comes with a remote control which powers the car forward, backward, through left and right turns, and in 36o degree circles. Yes, you can do donuts with this car.
Quick Highlights
- Three frequency remote
- Charged via remote or USB
- Small and lightweight
- Works on any smooth surface
- Headlights and brake lights
- Shockproof body
Recommended Age
The manufacturer’s recommend age for this toy is 8 years and up. Honestly, this is a pretty simple remote control car to operate. A younger child of seven or even six years old would probably do fine with this, with a little extra supervision.
This little dynamo will appeal to kids, teenagers, and any adult who enjoys playing with remote controlled vehicles. I mean…what’s not to love about a wall climbing car?
The Good Points of This Wall Climbing Car
- The big plus here is obvious: It’s a car that climbs walls!!
- This zero gravity feature is a huge selling point and makes it unique from all the other RC toys out there.
- It’s small and lightweight, yet durable enough to handle a fall or two.
- At only 6 inches long, it doesn’t look very powerful, but this nifty wall climbing car packs quite a bit of speed in its little size.
- You’ll be impressed with it’s maneuverability.
- It works well on any smooth surface, such as hard floors and smooth walls and ceilings.
- This little racer also has headlights and brake lights that make it fun to play with in the dark.
- The makers describe the car as having a shockproof body, designed to withstand falls without breakage, and other reviewers seem to agree.
- Best of all – it’s a GREAT price!
The Not So Good Points of This Wall Climbing Car
Its small size (remember, it’s only about 6 inches long) might disappoint at first. But if it were bigger it probably wouldn’t navigate across ceilings as effortlessly as it does.
The remote requires 6 AA batteries that are not included. This could get expensive if it’s a well played with toy (and trust us, it will be!). You might consider rechargeable batteries to save a little money in the long run. (See the UPDATE on this below!)
The car takes about 20 – 30 minutes to charge and the charge lasts about ten minutes. So it’s ten minutes of play, followed by 30 minutes of hearing, “Do you think it’s ready yet?” from your child, repeatedly. Younger kids might get a bit impatient at having to wait. Truth be told, so might some adults.
It works great on smooth surfaces, but if you have a popcorn ceiling, it won’t work there. Of course, nothing stopping your child (or you!) from bringing it to a friend’s house and using it on their ceiling.
Is the SZJJX Wall Climbing Car Worth The Money?
This toy is absolutely worth the money. Is was priced well when it first came out in 2016 and it’s even cheaper now.
This unique little remote controlled wall climbing car will keep kids of all ages occupied long after the wrapping paper is thrown out.
