Avionaut, a leading European brand in car seat safety, is celebrating a landmark achievement: its Pixel Pro 2.0 C infant carrier has been named Best Infant Carrier 2025 by What Car?, one of the UK’s most respected motoring authorities.
Each year, What Car? puts the latest child seats through a rigorous assessment process, examining not only crash test performance but also day-to-day practicality, comfort, and design. To be selected as the year’s top infant carrier is a significant endorsement of Avionaut’s mission to combine cutting edge safety with intelligent engineering, and recognition that its philosophy of caring for the safety and comfort of the youngest passengers and their parents—truly resonates. Being named the year’s top infant carrier is a powerful endorsement of Avionaut’s mission to combine cutting edge safety with intelligent engineering, and it reflects the brand’s core philosophy: caring for the safety and comfort of the youngest passengers and their parents.
The Pixel Pro 2.0 C stood out to testers for its exceptional combination of safety, comfort, and usability. Weighing just 2.5kg, it’s the lightest infant carrier on the market, making it easier for parents to carry their newborns without compromising on protection. Innovative modular inserts also provide a secure, tailored, fit for newborns as well as premature and low centile babies, offering parents peace of mind from their very first journey home.
Paired with the IQ Orbit ISOFIX base, the Pixel Pro 2.0 C becomes even more intuitive to use. The base’s smooth rotation makes loading and unloading effortless, while built-in coloured indicators confirm correct installation every time. Details such as a protective cowl to prevent children from touching the ISOFIX sliders reflect Avionaut’s focus on both practicality and child-friendly design.
Scoring five stars overall in What Car?’s testing, including top marks for safety, ease of use, and practicality, the Pixel Pro 2.0 C outperformed its competitors. Its higher ADAC crash test rating placed it ahead of the Nuna Pipa Lite, whether secured with ISOFIX mounts or a car seatbelt. The harness adjusts smoothly with narrow straps that sit neatly on newborn shoulders, while removable padding and inserts ensure comfort as a baby grows. Even small touches impressed the testers, such as clearly marked belt guides, simple strap adjustment, and clear fitting images on the seat itself.
Fiona Suffield, UK Country Manager at Avionaut, commented: “We are incredibly proud that the Pixel Pro 2.0 C has been recognised by What Car? as the best infant carrier of 2025. For us, this is more than just an accolade – it’s a reflection of the trust parents place in Avionaut at the most important moments of their lives. Our priority has always been to make every journey as safe, comfortable, and stress-free as possible, and being named among the very best confirms that we are achieving exactly that.”
With this achievement, Avionaut joins a select group of brands setting the benchmark for child travel safety in 2025. It also highlights the company’s ongoing investment in research, development, and parent-friendly design that makes everyday life easier and safer.
