“Play is a great way for families to bond over shared passions,” says Niels Henrik Horsted, Head of Product at The LEGO Group. “Coming together with a group of partners to create a variety of play experiences for families out there is a great opportunity for The LEGO Group, and we have created vehicles for both adults and kids, so they can enjoy a shared play experience together, as they build. We might all have different cars we prefer, different championships or competitions we like, different racing teams we cheer on, but what unites us is our shared love of exciting racing and incredible cars.”
The new LEGO vehicles launch starting March 1.
