The LATCH system stands for Lower Anchor and Tethers for Children. Newer automobiles come equipped with the top anchoring system built into the seat as well as a strap dedicated to anchoring a car seat into the back seat of the vehicle. Some automobile manufacturers will install the LATCH system free of charge if your vehicle does not come equipped with the system—check with your local dealer for availability.
