Generally bulky and difficult to handle, car child seats are usually a pain in the behind for parents trying to get them into place. One of the biggest tasks that you need to accomplish before you get your family on the road is getting a child seat into the car and getting your child into that seat. But toil no more, because Volvo is all set to introduce its all new child seat concept that is easy to handle, easy to fix into the backseat, and impressively lightweight.

Carry Around In A Bag
How can you carry a full sized car seat in a bag, you ask? You can do that with the Volvo child seat because it is inflatable and subsequently, deflatable. The best part is, the backpack-styled bag provided by Volvo is nothing short of sophisticated.
Lightweight And Convenient
The Inflatable Child Seat Concept is nothing short of convenient, weighing just about eleven pounds. That’s half the weight of a standard chair, which means you won’t have to do any heavy lifting whatsoever. It takes a short 40 seconds for automatic inflation, and can be controlled with the help of Bluetooth remotely.
How Its Made
Made from ‘drop-stitch’ fabric that is hard wearing and generally found in military hardware or boats, the seat skin has multi-purpose use, and can be used on public transport as well. The seat is rearward faced, and uses groundbreaking technology in its construction. It is safe, easy and portable, and comes with a pump system that is incredibly silent and efficient in its operation.
Functionality And Pricing
A simple button situated at the lower center of the seat deflates it in seconds, and this can be done remotely as well. The entire folded seat will fit snugly in your weekend bag, where you can store other child care items as well. This ultra mobile child seat is ideal for children of ages 3-4 years, and is definitely the future of child car seats.
