It’s no secret that Car and Driver editors are big fans of Porsche. The Boxster and Cayman have earned 10Best Cars honors a combined 19 times, and the Macan has made our 10Best Trucks list multiple times too (see: 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023). So when we got our hands on a Porsche wagon designed for kids, there were plenty of joyful responses from editors around the office. Tiny leather headrests have a way of bringing out the child in us all.

This $1999 special-edition wagon is a collaboration between the popular family-wagon brand Wonderfold and Porsche. Naturally, we had to take it for a spin.

Taking the Collaboration Seriously

Let’s pore over the Porsche details because, boy, is this thing branded to the nines:

Steering

Headrests

Wheels

Racing Stripe

Headlights

Taillights

Puddle Lights?!

The Wagon Itself

You can also buy this wagon without the Porsche branding as part of Wonderfold’s L Series, which comes in two- and four-seat configurations. Both versions include a canopy and a side-entry door that’s handy for little ones. We also discovered it can be a comfy, albeit low, bench for adults too.

The wagon folds down, but I will admit it took me about five minutes of replaying the instructional video to get the hang of it. I also found latching it to the two hold-down locks was a test of my physical and emotional strength.

It’s compact in the sense that it folds, but it’s not exactly teeny. We loaded it into the largest vehicle in our fleet, a GMC Yukon XL, and still had to reckon with its size. As you can see, it takes up most of the space. We won’t sugarcoat it: This thing is enormous.

If you have room to store it in the garage and like taking the kids on outings from home, the Wonderfold L Series offers a pretty luxurious way to get around. The Porsche branding is a fun touch, but the wagon is just as thoughtfully designed without it.

Wonderfold’s lineup includes smaller options: The W Series is its mid-size model, while the X Series is the lightweight option. An infant car-seat adapter lets a newborn ride in the infant seat, while older children can use the bench seats. For growing families looking for an alternative to a traditional stroller, the Wonderfold lineup seems like a darn good option. Yes, even without the Porsche puddle lights illuminating the underside.
