Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Cruz V3 2-piece suitable from birth?

Yes. You can use the V3 carrycot from day one and later the stroller seat with the newborn inlay. The set is designed to follow your baby from newborn up to 22 kg.

Can the carrycot be used for overnight sleep?

When combined with the dedicated UPPAbaby carrycot stand (sold separately), the carrycot can be used as an overnight sleep solution, always following the manufacturer’s instructions.

What is the difference between the Cruz V3 and the Vista V3?

The Cruz V3 is more compact and lightweight, ideal for everyday urban use and smaller boots. Vista V3, on the other hand, is a modular system designed to carry up to 2–3 children in different configurations. If you know you will only use a stroller for one child, the Cruz V3 2-piece is usually the most practical option.

Is it comfortable for long walks?

Yes. The roomy seat, newborn inlay, FlexRide suspension, ventilated canopy and air mesh carrycot mattress are all designed to provide comfort on both short trips and long days out.

Is the stroller really compact when folded?

Yes. The Cruz V3 offers an ultra-compact, free-standing fold, making it easier to store in the hallway, in restaurants or in smaller car boots.

Can I use it with a second child?

Yes, by adding the PiggyBack ride-along board (sold separately) so an older sibling can ride standing at the back while the baby travels in the carrycot or seat.
