Meet the Vista V3, UPPAbaby's newest version of their award-winning convertible stroller that families across the world have loved for years. The Vista V3 is designed to grow with your family and fit up to three children, with 30+ different configurations to accommodate your needs. Start with a seat or an optional bassinet, and add a RumbleSeat for your second child or a PiggyBack for the oldest to ride on. Vista V3 is compatible with UPPAbaby's Mesa and Aria series infant car seats with no additional accessories needed, and with many other brands' car seats with the use of adapters, making the ideal travel system.

UPPAbaby's Vista V3 stroller features a mesh All-Weather Comfort Seat that keeps the child cool in warmer months, with a removable padded Seasonal Seat Liner for added warmth when the temperature drops. The seat also features an extendable, water-repellent UPF 50+ canopy and an easy-to-peek window, offering airflow and protection from the sun rays while allowing you to keep an eye on your little one. The easy-to-adjust no-rethread harness with a magnetic buckle keeps the child safe and allows you to secure them in with one hand. The seat can be reclined with one hand for on-the-go naps, and the adjustable footrest ensures proper positioning of your little one's legs as they grow. The seat is designed to be reversible, so the child can face you for comfort and bonding time, or face the world when they become curious about their surroundings.

The optional V3 Bassinet makes your Vista usable from day one and features an extendable UPF 50+ canopy, as well as cross-ventilation panels and a foam-free mesh mattress for increased breathability and airflow. The dual zipper allows you to easily access the baby, and the carry handle with a one-hand release makes it effortless to transfer your little one to and from the stroller. Thanks to its collapsible design, the bassinet is easy to travel with or stow away.

The UPPAbaby Vista V3 Stroller features an enhanced FlexRide suspension that provides a smooth stroll on any terrain, even with multiple kiddos on board. The one-step self-standing compact fold with the seat attached makes travelling and storage a breeze. The extra-large basket is easy to access from all sides and provides ample storage for your day-to-day necessities on the go. The one-hand handlebar, finished with full-grain REACH-certified leather, is easily adjustable to accommodate different parent heights. Thanks to reflective details on the wheels and the basket, the Vista V3 is visible at all times of day, providing added safety while strolling.

What is the difference between the Vista V2 and the Vista V3? Great question! For a start, for the first time in Vista history, the bassinet no longer comes with the stroller and is now an optional add-on. This brings the price of the stroller down and offers more flexibility to create a system that perfectly fits your lifestyle. Although some families won't have the need for a bassinet, for those that do, the new Bassinet V3 has increased breathability compared to its predecessor, with multiple ventilation panels and an innovative, foam-free mesh mattress. The toddler seat has had a similar improvement, with a mesh All-Weather Comfort Seat and a removable Seasonal Seat Liner, keeping your little one cool in warmer weather and snug in winter months. Thanks to the all-new magnetic buckle, you can easily secure the child with one hand. With more reflective piping for increased safety, improved suspension, and new lightweight tires, UPPAbaby's Vista V3 Stroller is better than ever!
