Would this be good for a 3 year old ?

Yes, we bought it for our 3 year old grandson who loves all sorts of toy vehicles. It was an addition to his collection and much appreciated.

No the doors don’t open on this one but it’s still with the money.

How do you change the battery?

Looks like you have to un screw the whole bottom,I've not had to change mine yet
