#1 of 5 Element and a baby car seat by jim002001

Aug 27, 2007 (7:31 pm)

I am considering buying a Honda Element but I have a newborn on the way and was wondering if it would be hard to get a car seat in the back.
 
Does anyone have any experience with this or have any suggestions.
 
Thanks

I have and Element and a four month old son and he rides in a Graco Snugride. It fits with no problem. I think it will be fine when he moves to a convertible seat, too. You can test drive the car and drive it to Babies R Us or another baby store and they'll let you try out the car seat in the car to see if it fits.

Only foreseeable issue i could come up with would be the hassle of reaching to the rear seat since they are set back a bit further then most rear seats. As far as putting the seat itself in i think should be easy with the door opening as wide as they do, but i could see the reach to the seat being a bit of an issue.
