Silver Cross Perform Extended Rear Facing Car Seat

Meet the Silver Cross Perform - Extended Rear-Facing Swedish Plus Tested Car Seat

The Silver Cross Perform is a dedicated extended rear-facing car seat, built from the ground up around one principle: keeping your child in the safest position for as long as possible.

Swedish Plus Tested and approved to the latest R129/04 safety standard, the Perform is designed for families who refuse to compromise on protection - offering genuine extended rear-facing travel from birth to approximately 7 years (21.5 kg / 125 cm). At Little Peas, this is exactly the kind of seat we champion: rear-facing for longer, certified to the highest standard available.

Swedish Plus Tested - The World's Toughest Collision Standard

The Swedish Plus Test is the most demanding independent car seat safety certification in the world, going significantly beyond what standard i-Size (R129) approval requires. The Silver Cross Perform carries Swedish Plus Test approval (VTI-0055), providing parents with the highest possible level of independent safety assurance.

Rear-facing travel distributes the forces of a frontal collision across a child's entire back, head, and neck - the strongest parts of the body - rather than concentrating them through harness straps on a forward-facing child. Keeping your child rear-facing until approximately 7 years in the Perform means they benefit from this superior protection throughout their most vulnerable years of development.

Extended Rear-Facing from Birth to Approx. 7 Years

The Perform keeps your child rear-facing from birth all the way to 21.5 kg / 125 cm - approximately 7 years old. This makes it one of the most capable extended rear-facing seats available, far exceeding the minimum legal requirements and aligning with the guidance of leading child safety researchers.

Installation is via an integrated ISOFIX base with support leg, so the base remains permanently in your car for consistent, secure fitting every journey. Green indicators and audible click mechanisms confirm correct installation at a glance.

Adjustable Rebound Bar

A standout feature of the Perform is its adjustable rebound bar - a forward-facing anti-rotation contact point that works in conjunction with the ISOFIX base and support leg to deliver a more secure installation. The rebound bar also creates additional legroom as your child grows, making rear-facing travel comfortable well into the toddler and pre-school years. This three-point installation system provides exceptional resistance to rotation in the event of a collision.

Always Active Side Protection System

For constant protection on every journey, the Perform features Silver Cross's Always Active Side Protection System - a honeycomb energy-absorbing structure built into the seat shell that provides continuous head-to-hip protection without any additional setup required. Unlike passive side impact features that only engage in certain positions, the SPS is always working, regardless of headrest position or recline angle.

Adapt to Every Stage: 9 Headrest Heights & 5 Recline Positions

The Perform is designed to evolve with your child from the very first journey. Nine headrest height positions ensure the seat grows correctly as your child's height increases, maintaining optimal harness positioning at every stage. Five recline positions allow you to find the right angle for sleeping newborns, alert toddlers, and older children on longer journeys - all while staying in the rear-facing position.

EasyFit Sprung Harness

The EasyFit sprung harness is designed to prevent the straps from falling beneath your child when placing them in the seat - one of the most common frustrations with daily car seat use. The spring mechanism keeps the harness ready and in position, making the 5-point fastening genuinely fuss-free on every journey.

Newborn Insert & Hydro Protect Liner

From day one, the sculpted newborn insert - crafted from hypoallergenic, temperature-regulating bamboo soft-touch fabric with shock-absorbing foam - cocoons your newborn safely and comfortably. The insert features removable sections that adjust as your baby grows.

The Hydro Protect liner is included as standard and provides a practical, leakproof barrier during the potty-training years. It's reversible - with a soft waffle jersey side for everyday comfort and a leakproof reverse - and fully machine washable, so it's as easy to maintain as it is effective.

Super-Soft, Breathable Fabrics

The Perform's interior fabrics are soft-touch and breathable, designed to keep your child comfortable across all five recline positions throughout a long journey. Combined with the bamboo newborn insert, the Perform offers a genuinely premium in-seat experience from the very start.

Complete Care Package

Every Silver Cross Perform is backed by the Silver Cross Complete Care Package, which includes the Crash Replacement Scheme - providing a replacement seat in the event of an accident - and the free Car Seat Recycling Service, ensuring your seat is responsibly recycled when your child no longer needs it. A 3-year warranty is also included for added peace of mind.
