Reclining Headrests – The CYBEX patented reclining headrest prevents the child's head from falling forward while asleep and guarantees optimal protection in the case of a side-impact. The Linear Side-impact Protection System Plus provides increased safety in the event of a side-impact collision. L.S.P. System Plus reduces the impact forces of a side-impact collision by more than 20% when compared to the same car seat without an L.S.P. System. Easily adjust the seat to a comfortable sleeping position The Pallas G comes complete with a reclining headrest that adjusts to 3 positions to prevent your little one’s head from tipping forward and ensure it maintains the safest and most comfortable possible position. Impact Shield is then removed and the seat is secured by vehicle seatbelt until child is approx. 12 years old Stand out features include a reclining headrest to stop your child's head dropping forward when they are asleep, something which we really like on other Cybex seats like the Solution Z-Fix.

ISOFIX and Top Tether ensure that the car seat can be easily and securely installed. ISOFIX helps you install the seat correctly while the Top Tether provides additional anchorage for increased safety and stability. Both feature visual indicators confirming that the car seat is installed and ready to go.The metal Isofix arms themselves are narrow - handy if you don't have those plastics guides built into your seats but rather a gap in the seat fabric. You do have to watch them if you're moving between cars though as they will easily scratch paintwork.

The telescopic Linear Side-impact Protection (L.S.P) reduces the force of a side impact collision by absorbing the energy which safely positions the head. The One-hand Seat Recline helps you keep your child happy and comfortable onboard. Whatever the age of your child it’s easy to recline the seat so they can have a restful sleep while you’re on the road. Provides air circulation for your child’s comfort on hot days

Safety that grows with the child

At around 9kg it's considerably lighter than the Nuna MYTI (which is more than 13kg) and although still on the bulky side, it's very easy to install. The Isofix connectors are simple to slide out and have the usual green indicators to show they're fitted properly. Undoing them is a doddle too, so it's easy to release the seat.

UK law dictates that all children must travel in an appropriately sized car seat until they are 135cm tall or 12-years-old, whichever comes first.The Pallas also has a top tether fitting which Cybex says must be used if you are using the impact shield. If your child is older, like our almost six-year-old tester Eden, it's optional, although we found it neater to have the top tether fitted rather than having a long strap trailing around. It also gives you that extra bit of reassurance as it's designed to stabilize the car seat and prevent rotation in the event of an accident. Lie-flat seats - Research shows that it’s healthiest for newborn babies to lie flat for the majority of the time when they’re sleeping or lying still for periods. The CYBEX Cloud Z i-Size features an ergonomic lie-flat position outside of the car. Cybex seats are well known for their quality and the Pallas G i-Size is no exception. Straight out of the box you'll notice how solid the shell is and how soft and upmarket the fabric feels. Our first impressions are that this is a seat that's built to last - which given it's designed to go from 15 months to 12 years, is a pretty handy... The One-hand Seat Recline helps you keep your child happy and comfortable onboard. Whatever the age of your child it is easy to recline the seat so they can have a restful sleep while you are on the road. The Air Ventilation System allows cooling airflow to circulate through the car seat, preventing heat from building up and helping to provide a comfortable seat temperature even on hot days.
