Recaro’s Axion 1 is already known for its outstanding safety credentials - and now dressed in a limited edition Pepita fabric, it sets a new benchmark in car seat design.

🧪 Top‑Tier Crash Test Performance

In ADAC’s Spring 2025 child seat test, the Recaro Axion 1 earned an overall score of 2.1 (“good”) - earning first place among booster seats for children aged roughly 4 to 12 years (100–150 cm).

Here’s how it performed in key areas:

Safety:

• Very low risk of injury in side-impact crashes

• Average risk in frontal crashes

• Stable fit in the vehicle with optimal belt routing

Ease of Use:

• ADAC rated operation highly (1.7), citing a very low risk of misuse, easy installation (including ISOFIX), simple seat adjustment, and high-quality materials.

Ergonomics:

• Comfortable padding, generous legroom, spacious seating, and good outward visibility for the child; slightly higher space requirement in narrow cars.

Pollutants:

• Scored the top mark (1.0) for very low chemical content, including PFAS - earning a “very good” rating in that category.

In summary: a robust, easy-to-use booster with excellent crash protection - combining real peace of mind with premium styling.

🧵 Pepita Fabric: Heritage Motif, Modern Appeal

This edition’s highlight is its head‑turning Pepita (houndstooth) fabric. Inspired by classic motorsport and vintage race-line interiors, this design elevates the Axion 1 beyond utility - making it a statement accessory for motorsport families.
