If you’re looking for a premium stroller, the UPPAbaby Vista has likely caught your eye. With the new Vista V3 being launched, you may wonder how it compares to the beloved Vista V2. We’re here to break down the differences and help you decide on a stroller that matches best with your family's needs. For the analyticals, we've added the below post. For the visuals, we've added a video which is also below.
What's new with the Vista V3?
The UPPAbaby Vista V3 came with several exciting upgrades while maintaining the signature style and functionality that the Vista line is known for. Here’s a quick rundown of what’s changed:
- Toddler seat design
- The Vista V3 now comes with a removable padded seat insert, which features a breathable mesh seat. This is the perfect combination for hot summer days as you can remove the insert for better airflow to keep your kiddo cool.
- Magnetic harness buckle
- It’s time to say goodbye to the struggles of traditional buckles! The Vista V3 features magnetic harness buckles which allow parents to easily secure their child with just one hand, making the process of fastening and unfastening a breeze. The Vista V2 uses standard click-in harness buckles, which are as reliable but require a bit more effort to use.
- Safety enhancements
- Safety has always been a No.1 priority for UPPAbaby, and the Vista V3 takes it to the next level by adding reflectors on the wheels and the underseat basket. The Vista V2 doesn’t have these reflective features, which gives the Vista V3 an advantage for parents who enjoy evening or early morning strolls.
- Improved suspension system
- To ensure a smoother ride, the Vista V3 features an improved suspension system and new lightweight tires. These improvements ensure a more comfortable stroll even with multiple kids on board, absorbing bumps and uneven surfaces on rougher terrain better than the Vista V2.
- GREENGUARD Gold certification
- One more exciting change is that the Vista V3 stroller has obtained the GREENGUARD® Gold certification. This supports healthier air quality and low chemical emissions, making it a safer option for your family and the planet!
- Bassinet’s enhanced breathability features
- The new bassinet has been designed with breathability in mind. It comes with multiple ventilation panels and a mesh mattress that ensures maximum airflow, keeping your little one comfy and safe. The V2’s bassinet doesn't come with foldable flaps and its mattress is made of foam, which, while comfortable, does not offer the same level of breathability as the V3’s mesh mattress.
- Lower price point
- For the first time in Vista history, the bassinet is not included with the stroller purchase. Now, it’s sold separately as an optional add-on. This change allows the Vista V3 model to come in at a lower price point, offering families more flexibility when it comes to customizing their stroller setup according to their family’s needs.
With the Vista V3, you’re investing in a stroller that’s designed with high-quality materials, ensuring durability and long-lasting use. Its multiple configurations adapt to your growing family’s needs, allowing Vista V3 to fit up to 3 children of different ages.
