The deep side wings on the Boulevard are tested and made with EPS foam to protect the child from any dangerous side impact. Additionally, the seat allows for easy one hand recline adjustment and also has easy to use adjustment knobs that allow parents to adust the seat to fit their children as they grow.

Britax Boulevard Convertible Car Seat, Onyx

The Boulevard from Britax offers a host of comfort and safety features designed to keep your child secure while traveling in the car. Made to accommodate your child throughout his or her infancy, the Boulevard can be used as either rear facing for babies five to 35 pounds and a standing height of 49 inches or less, or forward facing for those babies weighing 20 to 65 pounds, with a standing height of 49 inches or less.


The Britax Boulevard offers:
  • HUGS system for maximum safety.
  • True Side Impact Protection.
  • 5-point harness for a secure fit.
  • Deep side walls and head support.

The HUGS system exceeds US safety standards. (Onyx shown.) View larger.

Quick and Easy Installation
Designed to install quickly and easily, the Boulevard features an easy-turn knob that immediately adjusts the headrest and harness height so you don’t have to continually uninstall and reinstall the seat. The tangle-free, durable polyester, five-point harness system ensures a snug and secure fit without unnecessary or uncomfortable pressure on your baby’s body. You can also take advantage of the belt holders to keep the harness to the side while you’re placing the baby in the seat. Lock-offs tightly secure seatbelts–and since they’re built-in, you won’t have to worry about losing parts!

True Side Impact ProtectionTM for Peace of Mind
The Boulevard also gives you additional peace of mind by featuring engineered True Side Impact ProtectionTM. Deep side walls and head support provide advanced shock-absorption and cushioning in side impact collisions, helping to reduce the risk of injury. Additionally, EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) impact foam lining around the baby’s head and torso absorbs energy in side and rear impacts, cradles baby’s head to keep it away from protruding parts, cushions violent side to side movements, and creates a comfortable resting spot.

HUGS for Optimum Safety and Support
When it comes to safety, the Boulevard truly delivers. First, the patented floating HUGS (Harness Ultra Guard) system exceeds U.S. safety standards by reducing forward head movement as it gently cushions the neck and chest with soft padding–a feature that’s particularly important both in the case of an accident and during nap time. In addition, this system better distributes the webbing loads, reducing head movement and minimizing harness irritation on baby’s neck in case of an impact. HUGS also reduces the chance of improperly positioning the chest clip.


Proper Positioning for a Safe, Custom-Fit
The Boulevard comes complete with a body pillow and EPS and comfort foam to help ensure proper positioning that keeps your baby’s head and neck stable. Front harness adjustment lets you ensure a safe and snug fit, while the rear- and forward-facing recline helps the patented Versa-Tether anchor the top of seat to the vehicle in the event of impact, reducing potentially dangerous movement. This system also allows for rear-facing tethering to help keep the seat from shifting.

Weighing 19 pounds and measuring 19.5 x 27 x 25.5 inches (WxHxD), the Boulevard is also certified for air travel, boasts a soft and supportive design, and offers a valuable level of protection in the event of an accident. The Boulevard comes with a 1-year limited warranty.

The Companion is also available in the following colors: Regal, Barrington, Shannon, Huntington, Park Avenue.

Customer Review: Great purchase, high quality car seat!
After hours of online research, we decided to go with the Britax Boulevard once my daughter outgrew her Graco Snugride (which we also liked). This seat is exceptionally large, so I do not see it fitting in a sports car. I was impressed with the true side impact protection wings, which is what eventually persuaded me to buy this, especially for when we move her from the middle position when another baby comes along. She does have to lean forward to look out the side windows, but has a great view out of the back. They also make a comfy pillow when sleeping. The fabric is very soft and I like the neutral colors. The headrest/strap height adjustment is very easy. I love the tether, it is the only brand to offer a rear-facing tether, you just have to spend a little extra time figuring it out. (I took it to a local specialist in installing car seats.) All of these things make it probably the safest on the market. It is rear-facing to 35 pounds, and forward-facing to 65, so we should get a lot of mileage out of it!

Complaints: The buckle leans towards the back of the seat and you do have to fish it out from under them each time they get in. I find the harness adjuster strap quite difficult to tighten. You cannot tighten it in one smooth motion as you can with the snugride. You have to jerk it out in several repeated motions. Besides this I am very happy with it. We bought it on sale and with a $200 gift card, otherwise I would have been hard-pressed to spend this much on it.
Customer Review: Love this carseat!
We’ve been using this carseat for months now, and we love it. Most importantly, my son loves it. It is very comfortable, and we feel that he is very secure inside. It’s not the easiest to install, but the comfort and stability of the seat more than make up for that. I’ve washed the cover and it did really well in the washer. It wasn’t hard to put the cover back on, either. Lots of nooks and crannies for stray cheerios, but that can’t be helped. Would buy another in a heartbeat, and highly recommended to anyone.

  • Click & Safe harness adjuster “clicks” when harness straps are snugly secure

  • Quick-adjust headrest and harness repositions head support and harness height effortlessly without having to rethread straps

  • Tangle-free, five-point harness with multiple harness heights for snug and secure fit

  • Engery-managing protective foam

    Customer Review: Great seat but doesn’t fit my car
    I ordered this seat but we are having to return it because it doesn’t fit in the ‘02 Mercury Sable, or the ‘03 Sable. I can’t see over it and doesn’t squeeze into the backseat very well. I can’t comfortably move the front seats forward any more than they are. This is a fabulously built seat though, but we’re going to have to buy the Diplomat or Roundabout instead. Another issue is that although our baby meets the height/weight requirements, she doesn’t meet the “seated shoulder height” requirement. I put the harness on the lowest setting and it’s way above her shoulders still. I’m going to have to use the infant carrier until she grows another inch or so. I really wish we could have used this seat so hence the five stars.
    Customer Review: Happy w/Britax
    Having had many Britax carseats with our three children, I find this to be the best! Worth the money. Buy Britax Boulevard Car Seat
