VOLVO (BRITAX) MAXWAY
VOLVO (BRITAX) MAXWAY
The Volvo Maxway is an extended rear facing car seat, suitable from 9 months to approximately 5 years (9-25kg/approx 112-115cm). It cannot be installed forward facing. This is a great option for bigger/taller than average children. It is compact and can install with the full 3-point seatbelt or a lap belt, which often allows 3 across installations. It is also compact so fits smaller cars or tighter spaces.
It has deep side wings for increased side impact protection. Additional safety features include a load leg to reduce downward rotation forces, as well as tethering straps to the front seat to prevent rebound forces. No additional hooks in your car are required. The Maxway has been independently crash tested by ADAC and Swedish Plus, and scores well.
The padded headrest and harness can be easily adjusted to your child's height with one hand. It offers multiple recline positions for optimal comfort, especially on long journeys.
