Britix Marathon specifications

The Britax Britix Marathon is a leading convertible car seat designed for parents who prioritize safety, comfort, and usability. This innovative car seat caters to children ranging from 5 to 65 pounds, accommodating infants, toddlers, and preschoolers alike. The Marathon is engineered with a focus on security, featuring advanced safety technologies that set it apart in the crowded market of child restraint systems.

One of the cornerstone safety features of the Britix Marathon is its SafeCell Impact Protection system. This technology includes a base that compresses during a collision, effectively lowering the center of gravity and reducing the risk of seat rotation, which in turn minimizes the force of impact on the child. The car seat also comes equipped with a steel frame that adds an extra layer of strength and stability, reinforcing the overall safety of the seat during travel.

The Marathon is designed with a high-quality harness system that boasts a no-rethread feature, allowing for easy adjustments as your child grows. This makes securing your child easier and ensures that the harness fits snugly at all times, maximizing safety and comfort. The car seat also features two recline positions that promote an optimal fit in various vehicles, providing versatility as well as comfort for your child.

Comfort is not overlooked in the Britix Marathon. The seat is generously padded with premium materials that provide a soft and cozy ride for little ones. In addition, it is equipped with breathable fabrics that help regulate temperature, ensuring your child stays comfortable throughout your journey, regardless of the weather conditions.

Parents will appreciate the ease of installation that the Marathon offers. The car seat is compatible with both the LATCH system and the vehicle seat belt, giving caregivers flexibility and convenience. An integrated lock-off helps secure the seat belt, adding an extra layer of safety during installation.
