COMING SOON TO CAR SEATS PLUS: The Britax Flylite & RIO - Two Pushchairs Designed for Real Life

If you’ve ever tried to juggle a baby, nappy bags, and a bulky pram at the airport gate or just navigating around a supermarket, you’ll know just how important a compact, easy-to-use pushchair is. That’s why we’re excited to announce two brand-new arrivals from Britax – both coming soon to Car Seats Plus:

• The ultra-lightweight Britax Flylite, ideal for travel - cabin-approved

• The versatile, city-smart Britax RIO, perfect for from birth comfort and everyday life

Here’s everything you need to know to choose the right one for your family…

✈️  Britax Flylite – The Jetsetter’s Dream

Weighing just 7.5kg, the Flylite is Britax Römer’s lightest stroller yet. It’s designed with travel in mind, folding down to a compact size that fits most airline overhead lockers and includes its own carry bag for easy transport.

Despite its featherlight frame, the Flylite doesn’t skimp on comfort or features. It’s suitable from 6 months up to 22kg, with a lie-flat recline, adjustable leg rest, and ventilated backrest to keep little ones comfortable – whether they’re napping on the go or taking in the view.

Key Features:

• Cabin-sized fold with carry bag

• Multi-position recline (including lie-flat)

• All-round suspension

• UPF 50+ sun canopy and rain cover

• Quick fold with one hand

Perfect For: Holidays, public transport, or as a space-saving second stroller.

🌆 Britax RIO – The Everyday All-Rounder

Need something a little more substantial without sacrificing space? The new Britax RIO offers the best of both worlds – a full-featured travel system that still folds down compactly and weighs just 10kg.

Use it from birth to 22kg with the seat unit in lie-flat mode, or combine it with the Britax BABY-SAFE PRO infant carrier or the RIO carrycot (sold separately or available in bundles). The RIO is only 55cm wide and folds to a slim 78 x 32cm, making it ideal for tight doorways, narrow shops, and small car boots.

Key Features:

• Birth to 4 years (22kg)

• Reversible seat unit with lie-flat recline

• Travel system ready with adapters included

• Telescopic handle (98–110cm)

• All-wheel suspension & puncture-free tyres

• Flip-flop-friendly brake and large storage basket

• Available in Carbon Black, Soft Taupe, Urban Olive, and Teak

Perfect For: Everyday family life, from newborn to toddler, especially in cities or homes where space is tight.
