Children in a Lotus

Having a kid does not necessary mean the end of Lotus ownership. Many owners have kids and regularly take them out in the Lotus.

There are many makes of seats for all ages that fit the Elise, although none of the factory fitted seats have IsoFix fitments so child seats must be belt fitted.

There's a vast choice of child seats available and also a lot of variations in the Elise seat design/padding over the years the car has been manufactured - so try before you buy.
