This five-year-old may have claim to being the world’s ‘fastest child’ after he drove a Lamborghini at 194mph.
Zayn Sofuoğlu got behind the wheel at the grand age of five years and 128 days old, with a video being shared to his Instagram.
Take that in – not even hitting double digits in age and already racking up six figures on Instagram followers.
In the clip, he’s shown taking the car for a spin, dressed in the full get-up.

Could this Lamborghini driver be the coolest kid ever?
With a booster seat put in place for him, Zayn got behind the wheel of a Lamborghini Revuelto.
On a closed runway, he got to speed it around in circles.
The caption for the post read: “[Five] years and 128 days old Zayn became the fastest child in the world with a speed of 312km per hour.”
Once he had his ride, he leapt out the car and gave the camera a big thumbs up.
To put into perspective, 312kph is about 193mph – which is a quarter of the speed of sound.

Zayn’s account is run by his parents, and sees his driving some seriously impressive vehicles, ranging from motorbikes to trikes.
With his dad being Kenan Sofoğlu, the motorcycle racer and five-time Supersport World Champion, it’s clear the kid has speed in his genes.
Not a lot of adults can say they did some donuts in a Lamborghini, but little Zayn can – at an age when most kids are still getting to grips with their bike.

Kids who are driving more than go-karts
Bearing in mind that Zayn was only born in 2019, it’s pretty wild to look at how much he’s experienced in his short life.
But increasingly, with social media expanding more and more, we’re seeing youngsters getting into cars at younger ages.

Behind each car-crazy kid is a parent who is game to help them explore their passion.
This dad created a six-wheel Rolls-Royce for his young son out of wood, whilst another’s wooden creation was a Lamborghini Sian Roadster.
These lucky kids may not be legal to drive yet, but they certainly have some very resourceful parents.
Just imagine how good they’ll be at driving when it comes to taking their driving tests.
