I've also taken a photo to showcase the "largest gap" scenario between a Maxi Cosi Kore and the 2nd row seat back.
The seat is at the most upright position, the Kore is adjusted to its maximum height (for 12 yr old I guess?). It feels very steady and properly supported, but youngsters will be sitting very upright! They can see more of the road & traffic ahead (my kids love this) but the trade-off is poor sleeping comfort. It's better let the kids decide... Quote:

Thank you so much. It is very clear that seat will be much on the upright position and probably not comfortable for long trips. On the other hand though if this is for when they turn 12, I truly believe that by this age they will be strapping themselves into the car's seat maybe with a small booster at the bottom.
These Maxi Cosi Kore seat are really the best in the market and the appear to be the thinnest so one have a third person in the middle row.

My issue with it all isn’t so much how the secure the seat fits.
My concern was what happens in a crash? I know nothing of these things but I assume those booster seat manufacturers wanted their seats flat against the car seat for a reason. If you crash and the weight of the occupant is flung forwards, what happens once the weight of the person is then going rear wards of the seat isn’t fully supported? Will it hurt the child? Will the booster seat back snap of flex in a manner which could cause injury? |

Deformation and elastic instabilities on soft materials can absorb energy and could be a good thing.
Prof. Lotta Jacobson could help answer some of the questions. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jCwBp0zL0s8 Seems the car seat in this video has a bigger gap than mine... Quote:

That middle seat is wider than many competitors, at the cost of narrower side seats.
But why no isofix like 5008 (fake) suv!
