Cybex car seats have excellent safety features, outstanding quality, and intelligent functionality, making them a great choice for your precious little passenger. Cybex takes a fresh approach to car seats that adapt perfectly to the urban lifestyle, and they’re constantly evolving to meet the demands of the modern parent. Cybex car seats are stunning and available in various colours, so there’s something to suit everyone’s taste.
If you’re considering a Cybex car seat or already have one, you’ve made an excellent choice for your baby. Here, we discuss some of the car seats that Cybex do, their standout features, and simple steps to remove a Cybex car seat from the ISOFIX base.
What is an ISOFIX base?
ISOFIX is an international standardised car seat fitting system that reduces the risk of fitting a car seat incorrectly. It automatically locks your car seat or car seat base into the two ISOFIX points built within the seat of your vehicle. It makes installing a car seat quick and easy with a simple click-and-go.
Some car seats have ISOFIX points built into them, which means you don’t need an ISOFIX base to attach them to the ISOFIX points in your car. For car seats that don’t have this built-in, you will need to use a base if you want to attach your car seat to the ISOFIX points in your vehicle.
The ISOFIX base is a way of plugging your infant carrier into a vehicle that has ISOFIX points. The car seat clips into the base, which then clips into the car seat to make sure the seat is safe and secure for every journey. Cybex ISOFIX bases have coloured indicators, so you know whether the car seat is installed correctly or not.
Cybex Aton
The Cybex Aton B2 i-Size car seat is designed with advanced safety and protective features for your newborn up to around 15-24 months. The innovative Linear Side Impact Protection System (LSP) absorbs the force of impact and channels it into the car seat’s shell, making it a superior safety system for your baby. The car seat is compatible with a Cybex Base One, which is easy and quick to install using the indicators, and you can be confident that your car seat is in place correctly.
Removing the Cybex Aton from the base

Cybex Cloud and Cybex Sirona
The Cybex Cloud Z2 i-Size car seat, suitable from birth to around 15-24 months, has a useful 180-degree rotation mechanism that allows the seat to face sideways for effortless ins and outs without straining your back. Or, rotate the seat to face another passenger when taking a break from your journey to play a game or have a snack. The Cybex Cloud is designed for safe and comfortable travelling, with integrated LSP technology, a height-adjustable headrest, recline feature and a removable newborn inlay.
The Cybex Sirona Z2 i-Size car seat has all the safety, comfort, and style of the Cybex Cloud car seat but lasts even longer as it’s suitable from birth to around 4 years. This Cybex 360 car seat fully rotates, so your precious passenger can remain in a rear-facing position until there at least 15 months old and can be easily spun around to forward-facing.
This mechanism also makes getting your baby in and out of the car seat quick and easy. Your baby is guaranteed a comfortable and joyful journey in this car seat with the easy one-hand seat reclining feature and adjustable headrest.
