    I did, I tried to fit my seats in one actually. Before making a snarky comment, you should do your research and know that not all car seats conform to a size. Some are bigger than others and the front seats cannot touch the car seat in a rear facing configuration. I'm tall enough there was no way I could drive the car.

    what sized seats do you have that it doesn't fit into a fucking Ioniq5?

    maybe you will need the Kia EV9 then, because that is a ridiculously sized thing.

    They also can't touch side to side. I think you must just not know a lot about the safety requirements of car seats. All EVs were typically very narrow too.

    I have a Hyundai i40 CW, IT'S A huge car, by eruopean standards anyway.

    the Ioniq l5 is wider by 7.5 cms and has a longer wheelbase by 23 cms

    if you can't fit inside that thing then you simply have oversized shit, the fuck do you drive now?
