Now please humour me. I have an RX330, I intend to buy a GS (3rd Gen) unless some unforeseeable issue occurs that causes me to miss out on a GS purchase. The GS is slightly narrower than the RX width wise. The difference being that the RX is slightly wider by 25mm (2.5cm).

For those GS owners out, has anyone been able to fit 3 baby seats across the back seat? The RX looks like it would struggle as well, so was really trying to get an opinion / feedback on anyone that has tried, failed or succeeded.

Don't worry the wife is going to get some 7 seater most likely, so hence my car won't be the primary car for kid outings.

3 baby seats would be tough, 2 baby seats and a booster seat maybe.

Yeah I wouldn't say it has room for three seats. You may be able to make them fit but worst case, I'd much rather keep all three of my kids safe rather than save two if I ever did get into a bad accident. Not worth it.

It's NOT going to fit. Latest gen Honda Pilot will fit 3 car seats in 2nd row easily.

I have managed two seats comfortably but a third won't fit.
