Increasing safety levels by 50 percent in the event of a frontal impact compared to conventional forward-facing car seats equipped with a 5-point harness system*, CYBEX Anoris T2 i-Size represents a state-of-the-art innovative solution set to take child safety standards to the next level.
The team at Supercar Blondie decided to put it to the ultimate test.
The test
Supercar Blondie’s Sergi Galiano visited the CYBEX headquarters based in Bayreuth, Germany to meet with the team and the engineers behind the creation of the Anoris T2 i-Size at the brand’s Safety Center.
They placed the car seat in a crash test simulator that replicates a frontal impact collision with an acceleration from 0-70 km/h (0-44 mph) in just over 1.3 meters (4.3 ft).
The results are impressive with the child crash test dummy protected thanks to the C-shaped airbag built into the impact shield that inflates to protect the head, neck, and body.
How CYBEX Anoris T2 i-Size car seat works
Released to the global market in April 2024, Anoris T2 i-Size is the successor of the 2021 ADAC test winner Anoris T i-Size, which was awarded an unprecedented overall rating of 1.5 ‘very good’.
Anoris T2 has the highest safety standards, making it 50 percent safer than a conventional forward-facing harness car seat*.
Nevertheless, comfort is always key for little passengers.
The compact One-Click impact shield, which is smaller than its predecessor, features in fact an eight depth-adjustment setting that can be fit with one hand by the parents, and promises full freedom of movement with no weight pressing down on the young travelers.
Buckling with a no-nonsense single-click precision fastening, on and off-boarding and avoiding tantrums suddenly becomes easier.
Built for the next generation of discerning parents, the updated and improved car seat technology delivered in Anoris T2 is designed for children aged 15 months to seven years, therefore providing three extra years of growing room than most conventional child seats and one year more than in the previous model.
Anoris T2 is priced at 799,95€ and is available in five adult, child, and stain-friendly shades – now that is something every parent can appreciate.

All Supercar Blondie contributors undergo editorial review and fact-checking to ensure accuracy and authority in automotive journalism. After gaining her BA Hons in French and English at the University of Nottingham, Amelia embarked on a vocational diploma from the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ). This led to numerous opportunities, from interning at Vogue to being on the small team that launched Women’s Health magazine in the UK, which was named the PPA Consumer magazine of the year for three years running. As Health, Beauty and Fitness editor, Amelia personally received a Johnson & Johnson Award and was shortlisted for both PPA and BSME titles. Since then, Amelia has created content for numerous titles and brands, including the Telegraph, 111 Skin, Waitrose, Red magazine, Stylist, and Elle, as well as being Head of Content at Vitality and Editor in Chief at INLondon magazine. “My superpower is translating technical jargon about the mechanical workings of a supercar into a relatable story you’ll want to share with your friends after you’ve read it.” After joining the SB Media family as a senior journalist in September of 2023, Amelia’s role has evolved to see her heading up the SEO output of the editorial team. From researching the most ‘Google-able’ key terms to producing evergreen content - it’s been a time of hard work, growth, and success for the editorial team and the Supercar Blondie website. “I like to think of myself as a ‘method journalist’. In other words: I live and breathe whatever I am writing about. When writing about fitness, I trained as a personal trainer, and as a beauty editor, I completed an ‘expert’ in scent diploma with the Fragrance Foundation. “During my tenure at Supercar Blondie, however, I did something I never thought possible: I passed my driving test at the age of 36. One day I’d love to train as a mechanic to better understand what happens under the hood, too. “My sweet spot is providing readers with a ‘takeaway’ (read: something new they didn’t know before) after reading every one of my stories. While I don’t claim to be an expert in the automotive world, I know the experts and bodies in the field to rely on to provide our readers with an informative and thought-provoking story every time they visit the site.”
