Choosing the right car seat is one of the most important decisions for your child's safety in the car. The Cybex brand is known for high safety standards and innovative features, but the wide range of models can make the choice difficult. This guide provides an expert overview of select Cybex car seats to help you make an informed decision based on your child's needs and your vehicle's specifications.
To find the right model, it's helpful to understand a few fundamental criteria and standards. These three points provide a solid foundation.
The i-Size standard (UN R129) is a European safety regulation for child car seats. Unlike the older ECE R44 standard, which classifies seats by weight, i-Size is based on the child's height. This makes it easier to select the correct seat. An i-Size car seat also offers enhanced side-impact protection and legally mandates rear-facing travel (in a rear-facing car seat) for children up to at least 15 months of age. Many Cybex models meet this high standard.
A car seat with Isofix connects directly to the vehicle's chassis using standardised attachment points. This system minimises the risk of incorrect installation, which is more common when securing a seat with the car's seatbelt. Isofix seats often feature visual indicators that show whether the seat is correctly and securely locked in place. Before purchasing, check if your vehicle is equipped with Isofix anchor points.
A multi-stage car seat covers several age and weight groups, for example, from 9 to 36 kg. Models like the Cybex Pallas initially use an impact shield and later convert into a booster seat for older children. This can be an economical solution, as only one seat is needed for a long period. In contrast, seats designed for a specific age group, such as infant carriers or toddler seats, often provide a more optimised fit for that particular stage of development.
Here, we present three models from the Cybex range that cater to different age groups and requirements.
The Sirona Gi i-Size is designed for the first four years of life, combining a 360° rotation feature with advanced safety technology. As a rear-facing seat, it allows for the recommended rear-facing travel up to a weight of 20 kg.
This model is distinguished by its ease of use and its advanced ventilation system. The 360-degree rotating car seat makes getting your child in and out of the car significantly easier and is gentler on parents' backs. The all-round air circulation, featuring special air channels and mesh fabric in the Plus version, ensures a comfortable seating climate in any season. According to the manufacturer, rear-facing travel provides up to 50% more safety in a frontal collision compared to a forward-facing position, based on internal testing following ADAC frontal crash criteria.
For parents seeking a safe and comfortable car seat from birth up to approximately four years of age (40 cm – 105 cm) who value the convenience of a rotation feature.
The Pallas G3 is a multi-stage car seat that accompanies children from toddlerhood (from 15 months) until the end of the car seat requirement at around 12 years old. It functions as a 2-in-1 seat that adapts to the child's growth.
The central feature of the Pallas G3 is its impact shield. This technology distributes the forces of a frontal impact over a large surface area, similar to an inflated airbag, thereby reducing stress on the neck area. Once the child reaches a height of 100 cm or a weight of 21 kg, the impact shield is removed, and the seat converts into a Group 2/3 booster seat. The reclining headrest and the L.S.P. System Plus offer additional protection.
For families looking for a durable, single-seat solution that safely accompanies their child for many years and who prefer an alternative to the traditional 5-point harness system. It covers the classes often referred to as a car seat for 9-36 kg.
The Solution G2 i-Fix is a high-back booster seat for older children from approximately 3 to 12 years (100–150 cm). It is the successor to the Solution G i-Fix, which received high marks in an ADAC test.
This model focuses on safety and comfort for older children. The patented, reclining headrest prevents the child's head from tipping forward during sleep and falling out of the seat's safety zone. The L.S.P. System Plus provides additional protection in a side impact. A practical feature is the seat's foldable design, which makes transport and storage easier.
For parents of children aged 3 to 12 who are looking for a safe, comfortable, and flexible high-back booster seat that is also suitable for switching between different vehicles.
This selection represents just a fraction of the Cybex range. Depending on your vehicle, individual needs, and preferences, other models may be right for you.

1. Until what age is a rear-facing seat like the Cybex Sirona recommended? Rear-facing travel is legally required up to the age of 15 months and a height of 76 cm. However, safety experts and manufacturers like Cybex recommend transporting children rear-facing for as long as possible, as this provides significantly better protection for the cervical spine in a frontal collision. Models like the Sirona Gi i-Size allow this up to a height of 105 cm (approx. 4 years).
2. What does "multi-stage car seat" mean for models like the Cybex Pallas? A multi-stage car seat is designed to cover multiple age and weight groups. With the Cybex Pallas G3, the child is initially secured with an impact shield (from approx. 15 months to 21 kg). Later, the impact shield is removed, and the seat is used with the vehicle's seatbelt as a high-back booster for children up to 12 years old.
3. Can I use a Cybex car seat with Isofix in any car? No, using an Isofix car seat requires your vehicle to have the corresponding Isofix anchor points. These are standard in most newer vehicle models. Check the vehicle compatibility list on the manufacturer's website or in the seat's user manual to ensure the chosen model is approved for your car.
