Joie has a trio of Summer updates, regarding their R129 certification.

Steadi^TM R129 is a protective partner that will allow little ones to rearward face up to 105cms. A Side Impact Certified seat, steadi^TM R129 will ensure the best head, neck and all over protection – seats that were classified under the previous R44 standard did not include mandatory side impact protection.
