7 affordable Mommy car's with ISOfix features

Many South African mothers are always looking to buy better and safer vehicles for their little ones. Child occupant safety is a top factor in safety crash test ratings due to the rapid amount of accidents that happen daily on our roads.

When looking for a new vehicle to purchase, customers often look at what is affordable and most importantly how safe these vehicles are before making a decision.

ISOfix is attachment points in vehicles located on the back seat for child car seats. Although car seats differ in design, shape and size, the length of a seatbelt and seatbelt anchorages do too.

Keep in mind that even if you’re sitting at the back with your child, do not let them sit on your lap. Being strapped in makes it less likely to be hurt badly in the event of an accident.
