Can the Maxi-Cosi car seats also be attached using Iso-Fix?

The Iso-Fix is a completely new attachment system for car seats in modern cars. With this system, special Iso-Fix anchors points are attached on the car body at the factory. The seat is therefore no longer attached using seat belts. The system was specially developed to facilitate installation in the car and to make it impossible to install the car seat incorrectly or misuse it. It is estimated that 65 to 80% of all car seats are installed incorrectly in one way or another. Something had to be done about this. A normal car seat that has been on the market for a number of years cannot be used with this Iso-Fix system. The Iso-Fix seats have been specially developed for this system and have Iso-Fix adapters. For this purpose, from December 2005, special Maxi-Cosi Iso-Fix seats have been launched into the market: the Maxi-Cosi Cabrio (Fix) with an Iso-Fix base for babies (Group 0+) and the Maxi-Cosi Priori-Fix for children from about 9 months to 4 years (Group I).
