3 kids in back seat...enough room?
 

Hello, I'm new to Volvos. I have a 10 yr old, 7 yr old (still in a booster) and a babe on the way. Currently we have an Outback that just won't do. I don't really want a minivan, but have started to lean in that direction because of space issues and wanting kids to be comfortable. Can anyone give me advice on the XC70 and how well my kids would fit in the 2nd row comfortably. I don't feel comfortable putting a kid the back 3rd row, so they'll all be together. I assume the backwards facing baby seat would be in the middle. Would love to know how it works for your 3 kids. Thanks for any help!

The Outback is much narrower than the Volvo wagon.
The baby carrier will do well in the middle. Sitting in the seat to place and remove the babe is the way to do it.
I did this in two 745s and my V70 is just as wide. My case was reversed, one older with twins in carriers.

There are plenty of room for your kids (for now) in XC, but when they grown to be 160-180+lbs and 6+ft tall then you'll need a mini van.
