Rear Facing only #CarseatFullstop: The Volvo Maxway is one of the safest seats available on the South African market. Volvo partnered up with leading car seat manufacturers, Britax Romer, to create the Volvo Maxway car seat. They elected to put the seat through the strictest external international testing, which it passed. #CarseatFullstop rating – 4/5 The Volvo Maxway is an exclusively rearward facing toddler seat that lets you keep your child in a 5-point harness all the way up to 25kg or 115cm. The seat is seatbelt installed and requires lower tether belts that come with the car seat and utilises an inbuilt foot-prop for additional security of installation. It can be a little daunting to install, but once it is in, it essentially becomes a part of the car and crash test results are very good. The quality of all the materials used for this seat is in line with the luxury expected from Volvo, providing extreme comfort for children. The car seat does not only work with Volvo cars, but you do need to go to a Volvo dealership to ensure it will fit securely in your car. Crash testing explained by #CarseatFullstop here (link).
