Hi,
I was surprised when checking our car seats that the third row of the XL Berlingo's are not rated for child car seats. I understand that the 3rd row on 2018+ Berlingo do not have isofix, but the NCAP report suggests that there is a safety critical issue that does not even allow belted car seats/high back booster seats.
Does anyone know the reason for this?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Nick.

Possibly as a rear-end shunt can reach those seats. If the XL simply has an extended floorpan, then most of the original crumple zone at the rear may not protect the extra length.
