I just installed my first iSize isofix car seat in what is a very normal sized Toyota hybrid hatchback that had served us well for years before having children.

I had zero inkling how much space these things take up. With a very ordinary baby seat (not obviously bigger than any of the other 10-20 ones they had at the store) we had to move the front passenger seat so far forwards that it is basically impossible for anyone "tall" to fit in any more.

I am now relectantly planning to buy a larger or SUV car simply because we can't fit anyone in the pasenger seat when we have the baby seat installed. Thought about putting it in the front passenger seat, but it would probably obscure vision.
