When I was a child, we didn’t even use baby car seats. Now automakers are integrating them into their interior designs.
Point-in-case, check out the sporty baby seat featured in the new Citroën DS3 Cabrio Racing concept. Like the cabin it’s pegged to, this safety seat is trimmed in Napa full-grain leather, DS-embossed leather and Alcantara.
Citroën explains:
A smart design feature fitting to the Cabrio’s lifestyle practicalities is a child seat in three-material watch strap design leather upholstery, coordinated to the seats, and even co-ordinating rally helmets.
That’s right, should you choose to take your child with you on a rally race, Citroën throws in matching helmets for you and the little tike. (Is it legal in France to race with your child in the backseat?)
I don’t know about you, but I sure wouldn’t mind sitting in an adult-size version of this baby seat. It looks way more comfortable than the DS3’s rear bench – doesn’t it?

i like the pleat design
I agree. The watchstrap design is quite beautiful!
Nice design!…I’m trying to figure out how the ‘high and low relief pleats’were done? …the baby seat looks very comfortable.
The French like to foam inject there covers.
I just put a video on you tube on how I made the 3-D look. https://youtu.be/TzVRiIf0DbI
