Child Seats
Speaking of families, we installed some child-safety seats to see how they fit. There are two sets of Latch anchors in back that are hard to locate, and there are two top-tether anchors midway down the seatback that are easy to use.
A booster seat fits easily, and the seat belt is well-placed. There's not enough room lengthwise for an infant seat unless the front passenger seat is moved forward, but a rear-facing convertible seat fits without moving the front seat.
