Has any one used this car seat in a Kia Sportage or a similar small crossover SUV? How does it fit?

Hi I used this seat in a 2010 Hyundai Tucson and a 2011 KIA Sorento - works great! It should work with any car that has the the LATCH system. you can check it by looking at the bottom of your seat where the cushion meets the back of the seat, usually there is a little plastic emblem there. Also you can put your hand into the crack where the seat back meets the cushion and see if there is a small metal bracket on left and right side of where the seat would go. This seat is equipped with latch system which would lock into those metal brackets. Very cool stuff! Feel free to ask other questions about the seat, we use it daily.

I have a 2007 Jeep Liberty and it fits just fine in both forward and rear facing.

I use it in a Kia Sportage 2012, and we can still travel with three passengers in the back, not so comfortable but still 3 passengers. The seat fits perfectly using the isofix.

Definitely. I use my cover in a mid size SUV. It's not "fitted" in the sense that there is elastic all the way around. There is an adjustable buckle (think dog collar) at the top that goes around the headrest. Other than that, there is nothing fitted. It easily covers my entire seat (seat and back), which I like. I'm pleased with my cover.

Sorry, no answer for you, but you mentioned a website with car fit info - I also have a Civic and am contemplating this seat. What site has car seat fit info?

This car seat is rather big. I imagine it would be pretty tight in a smaller car especially rear facing. We have it in a Hyundai sante fe crossover and decided to put it forward facing because of the leg room for or daughter

I think it would fit well. We have a Mini Cooper, Chevy Truck and BMW and it fits in all three. The only thing is, it does not in any way lock into the car... The seatbelt runs through as the restraint. When it locks. My daughter is miserable as she is strapped in so tightly. Because of this, we only use if for quick errands about town.

One idea I saw (which could be helpful for you) when buying my SUV tent for my Kia Sportage was that magnets should be provided for the sides where it doesn't exactly fit snug. I just went to the hardware store and bought some. I tuck and fold the loose spots, around sides of car, apply magnets and viola.

I have a dodge caliber and it fit great...my husband has a even smaller car a kia forte 2 door and it fit nicely as well! We didn't use the base (but we never tried to because my car was the main car and didn't want to bother taking it in and out, plus he has bucket seats). My mom's dodge neon fit the base and carseat just fine as well.

It is thin polyester or nylon velveteen type material with a peacock flower. in the Kia Sportage it fits but not perfectly.

Not certain I have a SUV. Just take into consideration that this car seat is a little bigger than your normal car seat.

We have an SUV crossover, but we went to Buy Buy Baby and they let us try it in the car before we bought it (here on Amazon). I am sure other baby stores would let you too. We love the seat. Good luck!!

I had to buy an adapter for my stroller so i could put the car seat. I have the summit x3. I really like my car seat, and i like that it's a little bigger than the average car seat and it's not heavy.

It fits just perfectly in my Prius in rear-facing, and I have to believe that's smaller/tighter than an Impala. It's much smaller than similar Graco models. I used a loaner that took up two seats in the back! With this car seat, grandma and I can still squeeze in the back seat with the baby and let dad and grandpa have the long-leg seats up front.

We no longer have the seat. Our dog was fine with it around town but hated it on a long trip. It's for sale on Craigs list. Cant tell you about you car size. Sorry.

No, I don't think so. It is designed for a lift gate. Not supposed to be able to use it on my Kia Sportage, which has a lift gate, but a spare tire gate that opens to the side. I altered the tent to work with the spare tire gate. But it definitely needs the lift gate to support the tent.

I drive a Hyundai Elantra and it fits in there. It is almost up against the front seat (my daughter is still facing backwards) so it is snug but it fits. My husband has a Toyota Tacoma truck and it fits fine in there as it is a little roomier. It doesn't seem like a huge seat- smaller than others I looked at, but it still takes up a decent amount of space in my sedan.
