Joie 360 0-1 in a smaller car

Does anyone have the Joie 360 for group 0-1 in a smaller hatchback? We’re looking to get this seat for DD2 now that she’s outgrowing her infant seat.

DH has a Mazda 3
I have a Chevrolet Cruze
DM (who does our childcare) has an Astra

DM’s car is probably the smallest inside but DH’s car isn’t massive either.

Any reviews for the seat would be appreciated too. Smile

I've got one in a corsa and have to move the passenger seat all the way forward when it's rear facing and reclined. I think it'll be fine when it's forward facing.

DP can't drive the car with it behind the drivers seat, and I think I would struggle.

Hi! Can I ask what year your Peugeot 308 is? I have the new model (2020) and the manual says it only fits the models upto 2014😭 I really want the car seat though!🤞🏼

The fit list is not exhaustive. It is probably that they haven't tested it in that version. I would look at stockists on the Joie website and see if you can find one locally who will let you have a test fitting in your car. It's best to pick an independent over a chain (Chains being Halfords, Smyths etc)

The funny thing is since I posted my last message on this thread nearly 2 years ago, DS2 has actually only just hit 18.1kg, and just about fit into the Joie 360 by height a couple of months ago. So it actually took him much longer to grow out of it than I thought (but DS3 is using it now anyway).

I two of the Axkid Moves instead. DD2 is 3 and still comfortably in that seat and we’ve been pleased with it.
