3 car seats in 2 back seat configuration

[GoldBlueRose8]

Hi all,

I searched the forum looking for this topic but I couldn't find it in its entirety. Is it possible to fit 3 car seats (twin toddlers + 1 infant) across in the 2 backseat taycan configuration? I'm looking for a used taycan turbo or turbo s and I often find the 2 backseat configuration and not the 2+1. We have a SUV that will be used to primarily transport the kids but I need the ability to have the whole family in the car from time to time.

Thanks,

Do you require 2 forward facing and one rear facing?

I honestly doubt it's physically possible to fit three child seats in the back, no matter the configuration. You would need to find some extremely narrow seats to get it to work.

Never used them, but you may be in luck. At a price:

Multimac - Will it fit? - Child Car Seats

How comfy the kids will be is another question.

There is no middle seat belt in the non 2+1 config and no central isofix points in either config.

I can’t see how you’d fit in 3 car seats even in the 2+1 config unfortunately. Probably two car seats and kid in the middle who is tall enough to not need a seat would work (well def works because I’ve done it) in the 2+1.

2 forward facing toddlers and then rear facing for the infant.

I've seen posts where people have placed 3 boosters all the way across. So I know conceptually its possible but curious as to the actual how.

This sounds like an opportunity for an interesting test drive at your local Porsche dealership!

If it was still the 1980's you could get the CT and throw all of them in the back with some sodas and coloring books. All while smoking a heater and drinking a beer while you drive.
Our parents had it good.

Thanks, good to know that it's possible. This should work...now just need to figure out the right configuration.

That implies that the Taycan is a 5-seat configuration, rather than the 4 seater you’re contemplating buying.

I watched the install video of the multimac and it doesn't look like it should matter whether it is a 4 or 5 seat configuration as long as there are 2 tether points to attach the device. But that's just my perception, I'll ask multimac directly.

It partly depends on how long you're going to keep the car.

Also consider that you need to carry 3 kids. Plenty of others will too, even if it's just yours plus friends.

The 4 seat config is a waste of space IMO. For the small amount of outlay and, perhaps, the awkwardness of the third belt, it seems like a no brainier to me (I wouldn't have bought a car without it).

The problem is that that middle seat is so tiny it's totally pointless. The car is a 4 seat car.

Too small for an adult for sure. Doable for short journey with a spare kid i guess.

Exactly this. We always used to go in the back of my Mum's hatch back car even when nothing on the back seat. No idea why, maybe just a bad parent!!
