I just recently bought a new sedan, a chevrolet Cruze. My daughter is only 4 months old but absolutely hates her infant seat. I did some research and found the Diono Radian rxt. Looking to see if anyone have installed this type of car seat rear facing in a compact car. If so, pros/cons. Any suggestions?

We have one installed in a Chevy Cobalt. We are using the angle adjuster so you might have to wait until little one is older.

The Radian is a very tall seat, so it can be a challenge to install in compact cars, but it's often doable.

I agree that the angle adjuster (sold separately) might be a vital piece for a compact car install, but because it makes the seat quite upright, it is only used for kids over a year old.

If you have a store nearby that sells the Radian, I would try it out in your car to see if you can get a good install before committing to purchasing online.
