Now, what are the differences?

The differences: Design and Aesthetics

Vista V2: The UPPAbaby Vista V2, released in 2020, boasts a sleek and modern design. It features a well-structured, sturdy frame that combines elegance with durability. The stroller is known for its spacious seat and high-quality fabrics, with a variety of color options to suit different tastes.

Vista V3: The all new Vista V3, introduced in 2024, carries forward the elegant design but with subtle refinements. The frame has been slightly re-engineered for improved maneuverability and aesthetics. The V3 offers a more streamlined look and three new, sophisticated color options: Savannah, Kenzi, and Callum. The overall feel is more contemporary, with refined details that enhance its premium appeal.

The Differences: Features and Functionality

Seat and Recline: The Vista V2 features a multi-position one-handed recline and a reversible seat, allowing your child to face you or the world. The seat is generously padded and has an extendable, UPF 50+ sunshade.

The Vista V3 improves on this with the upgrade to an All-Weather Comfort Seat with removable Seasonal Seat Liner. Plus, there’s the addition of a magnetic buckle, making it easier to secure your child safely with just one hand.

Foldability and Storage: The Vista V2 has a relatively easy one-step fold mechanism, and can stand on its own when folded! 

The Vista V3 features an improved fold design that is more compact, which is a notable improvement for urban living or smaller car trunks.

Ride and Maneuverability: Both models are equipped with all-wheel suspension, but the Vista V3 boasts upgraded FlexRide Suspension for a smoother ride over a variety of terrains. This enhancement ensures better comfort for your child and easier maneuverability for parents.

Adaptability: Both the Vista V2 and V3 offer excellent adaptability with the addition of a second seat and various accessories. However, the V2 includes a bassinet, whereas the V3 offers the bassinet sold separately. The V3 has improved compatibility with the UPPAbaby infant car seats and a new configuration system for the second seat, which offers greater flexibility.

Vista V3: The Vista V3 takes the build quality a step further with new materials that are more eco-friendly and even easier to maintain. The stroller’s frame has been optimized for even greater sturdiness without adding unnecessary weight. The new lightweight tires are set off with reflective accents on the wheels and basket.
