What is the ADAC car seat safety test?
ADAC testing refers to safety assessments conducted by the Allgemeiner Deutscher Automobil-Club (ADAC), Europe's largest automobile club based in Germany. Their original and most well-known service (among many) is roadside assistance, but they also focus on car seat safety testing. Going beyond the minimum requirements for car seat safety set by European regulations, the ADAC’s rigorous and unbiased standards set the benchmark for car seat safety testing around the world.
What does the ADAC car seat crash test measure?
The ADAC's 2024 car seat crash tests evaluated several key aspects of child car seats, including:
Crash Safety
The tests measured how well each car seat protected children in simulated crash scenarios, assessing factors like impact absorption and structural integrity.
Usability
This aspect evaluated how easy it is to install and adjust the car seat, ensuring parents can easily use it correctly every time.
Ergonomics
The comfort and support provided to the child were considered, ensuring that the design promotes a safe and comfortable seating position.
Environmental Impact
The materials used in the car seats were assessed on their eco-friendliness, reflecting a commitment to sustainability.
At Doona, we are committed to providing safety, comfort, and convenience for every family. Which is also why we’ve created our innovative and revolutionary Doona Car Seat & Stroller which transforms from a car seat to a stroller in the click of a button; and Liki Trike — the most compact folding toddler trike on the market that grows alongside toddlers with five modes of use.
