No longer will bewildered mum and dads have to figure out a way to juggle driving and checking on their bub in the back seat thanks to Volvo’s new XC90 Excellence.

The car manufacturer’s design team have replaced the front passenger seat with a swivelling baby carriage that can move and safely get your child in and out of the seat.

There’s even a sneaky storage container underneath so you can stow away nappies and other baby essentials.

Speaking about the ground-breaking new design, Volvo explained: “For us the safety, convenience, and emotional factors outweigh everything else. Being able to maintain eye contact with your child from the rear seat, or being able to keep a bottle warm in the heated cup holders in the XC90 Excellence, would go a long way towards making life easier for parents taking their small child on a trip.”
