Depending on <strong>the height and weight of each child<\/strong>When it comes to baby car seats, manufacturers offer different models designed to meet the needs of children at different stages of their development. When choosing a car seat approved under the <strong>R129 regulation (i-Size)<\/strong>you'll have to rely on <strong>the size<\/strong> of your child to determine which type of car seat is right for him or her. Conversely, when choosing a model approved under the <strong>regulation R44\/04<\/strong>is <strong>its weight<\/strong> which will determine the appropriate group.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Les_Resultats_Des_Sieges_Auto_Aux_Crash-Tests\"><\/span>Car Seat Crash Test Results<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Child safety<\/strong> by car is, in our view <strong>the most important criterion<\/strong> when choosing a baby car seat.
