Question Graco 4ever Car seat fit in 2010 Kia Soul? With a 6'3" driver?

PJam · Dec 22, 2015

My husband is 6'3" and we have a 2010 Kia Soul. We would like to get a Graco 4-ever car seat, but we are concerned about the fit. Right now with my son's Safety First Air 65 seat, my husband has to sit really close to the steering wheel so as not to have the car seat bracing against the front seat. Plus, since the graco is so tall, are their blind spot/additional fit issues? Thank you for any insight!

Graco 4ever Car seat fit in 2010 Kia Soul? With a 6'3" driver?

Welcome to car-seat.org!

The Safety 1st Complete Air is not known for being compact. I think you will find that many seats, including the 4ever, take up less space.

I don't know much about the Kia Soul, but you might take a look at this resource: http://carseatblog.com/22818/the-ul...ertible-space-comparison-review-size-matters/

We have a relatively small vehicle and the Pria, Nextfit, Britax convertibles (especially the clicktight ones) and Milestone have all worked well for us and allow for extended rear-facing. The Scenera NEXT is also a compact rear-facing convertible at a great price point, but it will be outgrown earlier than the others.

How big and how old is your son?

As for blind spot issues, directly behind the driver is a fantastic spot for avoiding that. He probably can't turn his head 180 degrees anyway. [emoji4]
