A motorizd toy car which upon frontal impact with a wall or other obstruction simulates a crash and its consequences. The wheeled car is provided with a chassis on which a hollow body is mounted, the body being defined by a front hood section having a simulated bumper prow, an intermediate cockpit section accommodating a hinged side door, and a rear trunk section having a trunk lid hinged thereon. The intermediate and rear sections are formed of rigid material and are attached to the chassis, whereas the front section which is formed of resilient material is free of the chassis. Slidable along the chassis is a sled whose front end is attached to the prow of the front body section, a coil spring urging the sled to a retracted position in which the front section is deformed to assume a crushed appearance. The side door and the trunk lid are operatively coupled to the sled so that when these components are manually swung from their fully open to their closed positions, the sled is then caused to advance against the action of the spring to an extended position which is held by a spring-biased detent. In this extended position the car assumes its normal appearance in which the front body section is undeformed. Upon impact, the shock thereof releases the detent which frees the sled to return to its retracted position to impart a crushed appearance to the front section of the body, the door and lid then being outflung to simulate a crash. By again closing the door and lid, the normal appearance of the car is restored, thereby making it possible to repeatedly "crash" the toy car.
