Can can handle reversing on the flat but any gradient the car really struggles. Is my transmission f'd and should I get rid of car ASAP or is it just something cars do ?

change the trans oil, if mitsi and high k could be stuffed. take it to a transmission center. Depends how much the car is worth.

Pedal cars DO do Just EXACTLY that.
Tis harder to pedal BACKWARDS.

AND.
With no make, year model and mileage GIVEN.
The crystal ball says

Pedal Car.
As it does.

Depends on the car and reverse ratio the transmission the car has.Some transmission fixes cost very little if the solution is only a minor adjustment, if a common car with many quality replacement used trans from a dismantler/ parts importer then it should not be too much to swap in another trans.

tear a medium size branch from a tree and beat the vehicle

Simplest reason is low oil in the transmission. If it's not a sealed transmission, run the car till it's warm, then with the engine running, check the trans dipstick. Chances are it will be low, and adding auto trans fluid might fix your problem.

What if it's a Nissan Leaf?

Transmission isn't even open yet, but you would be better off going forwards when it does.

What do you mean by "struggles" ?

Does the engine rev up as much as it usually does with a bit of throttle, but the car not move?
Or does it over rev?
Or does the engine struggle to get up to revs and sound like it's down on power?
