 Now, if you’re thinking this is just another infant car seat, you’d be wrong. What makes it so special? We're about to spill the beans!  

Whether you're cruising around town or embarking on a family road trip, this car seat is designed to make your life easier and your baby's ride more comfortable.  

So join us as we take a closer look at what makes the Aton G Swivel a must-have addition to your parenting toolkit! 

 
No Sweat Required 

 THE SPECS: 

• Suitable from 4 to 35 lbs. or 32” in height 
• Car Seat Weight: 9 lbs. 
• Car Seat Dimensions: 17.5" W x 14.7" H x 26.1" D
  
  

The Aton G Swivel is a marvel of convenience for parents on the go. Weighing a mere 9 lbs. when off its base, this lightweight seat caters perfectly to your busy lifestyle. 

You may be wondering how this car seat got its name? No...it’s not just because this tech-savvy seat is going to turn some heads. This ingenious product has an innovative 180-degree swivel base that turns the seat, allowing you to effortlessly load and unload your little one from the carrier, all while remaining securely installed in your vehicle. No more awkward maneuvers or back-bending stretches — the swivel base makes things smooth and simple! 

The G Swivel also comes with Cybex’s SafeLock Belt Tensioner (aka a tensioning plate). This addition ensures that installing the base is easy-peasy, offering a quick, secure, and foolproof connection using your vehicle's seat belt. 

Safety Takes Centre Stage 

We love that the seat has an anti-rebound bar — a masterstroke in crash safety! This integrated bar works to stop rotation and movement during an impact, keeping your little adventurer well-protected. 

But Cybex isn’t done there! The Aton G Swivel comes with a secret weapon: the Linear Side-Impact Protection (LSP) system. Seamlessly woven into the seat, the LSP system acts as a shield against the unpredictable forces of side collisions. 

If all that wasn’t enough, the G Swivel is outfitted in flame-resistant fabric, guarding your child against fire while meeting federal safety standards. 

SensorSafe 

This car seat also stands out thanks to Cybex's innovative SensorSafe technology, which alerts parents and caregivers to potential safety concerns that traditional car seats might miss.

At the heart of this system is a chest clip integrated into the car seat harness. This clip is equipped with sensors that track both the temperature inside the vehicle and the child's movements. The collected data is then sent to the SensorSafe app, available for both iOS and Android devices through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

The app delivers real-time notifications regarding your child's safety and also offers instructions for proper car seat installation and usage.

You’ll receive alerts for:

• When your child unbuckles the harness.
• If your child is exposed to unsafe temperatures.
• If your child is left alone in the vehicle.
• If your child remains still for an extended period.

Cocooned in Comfort 

The Aton G Swivel also has everything needed to cocoon your little one in comfort. It comes with: 

• 11-Position Headrest: This seat adapts effortlessly with 11 headrest positions, ensuring a snug and secure fit as your child grows.  

• Easy Glide Recline: Adjust the recline angle effortlessly within the base, guaranteeing an ideal fit in your car without the need for reinstallation. Convenience meets coziness! 

• XXL Sun Canopy: Shield your child from the sun's potent rays with an XXL canopy. Larger than previous versions, this canopy is woven from UPF 50+ fabric, offering protection against the elements. 

• In-Shell Ventilation: Perforations on the shell allow a refreshing breeze to flow through the seat, keeping your little one comfortable, cool, and content. 

• Easy To Clean Fabrics: Accidents will happen! Take them on in stride with machine-washable fabrics for quick and effortless cleanups! 
  
  

Extra, Extra 

Cybex doesn’t stop there. They’ve still got a few more tricks up their sleeves! 

First is an Easy-In Buckle Pad, where the harness buckle stays forward, awaiting your child for easing loading. Speaking of the buckle, the Aton G Swivel also comes with a no-rethread harness, which keeps baby snug and secure in the seat, while allowing for on-the-fly adjustments while they grow! 

Finally, Cybex designed this infant seat to be travel system compatible, pairing with their Gazelle S Stroller and other strollers. This means you can connect the car seat to the stroller without disturbing your baby from their slumber — snooze on little one!
