The BABYZEN YOYO2 is known amongst parents for its recognisable bright white wheels, and for being one of the most lightweight and versatile strollers on the market. It’s now time to say hello to the Stokke YOYO3, the latest member of the YOYO crew.

Ready for everything, the YOYO3 has a number of brand-new features that make it stand out against the YOYO2. It’s back and more comfortable, versatile and innovative than ever. In this blog, we’ll compare the old YOYO2 with the new YOYO3 and share why it’s time to upgrade your YOYO.

Ready, set… YOYO.

BABYZEN YOYO2

The BABYZEN YOYO2 is a great choice for city dwelling parents who are looking for a flexible, compact stroller that they can rely on. This pushchair is perfect for hopping on and off public transport and the individual wheel suspension means that the stroller is able to perfectly adapt to and navigate any terrain for the smoothest ride every time.

Everything about the YOYO has been designed to perfection with premium quality materials and luxury features such as a faux leather handle. The YOYO has always been hailed as one of the most versatile strollers with many configurations and is compatible with a number of car seats including the CYBEX Cloud Z infant car seat and the Maxi-Cosi Pebble Pro car seat.

The YOYO2 is feather light at only 6.1kg and when folded, the YOYO2 is below the recommended IATA approved carry-on baggage size, it is actually known for being the first stroller to be accepted as cabin luggage. It is a great space-saving stroller and can easily fit into the footwell of a car or tucked away into a small cupboard.

So what's the difference between the BABYZEN YOYO2 and the Stokke YOYO3? 

Stokke YOYO3

1,2,3…GO! The best is even better on the count of three, and we are so excited to introduce the brand-new Stokke YOYO3 Pushchair. As parents, we all know that live can sometimes feel like a race – so let it be a fun one with the YOYO3.

The BABYZEN YOYO is renowned for being the ultimate reliable compact stroller, and it has become the must have pram for parents on the move. The Stokke YOYO3 is a brand-new updated pushchair that has been upgraded with a number of features that make it even safer, more comfortable and convenient for your family.

It might be hard to get used to the name Stokke YOYO3 (previously known as the BABYZEN YOYO), but we’re here to show how the YOYO3 is back and better than ever.

What’s new?

There are plenty of new features to love about the YOYO3, all of which have been added to create the perfect compact stroller that’s made for life in the city. The YOYO3 is well equipped to keep your little one safe and snug from newborn (with the newborn pack) up until 22kg.

There’s a new storage basket that can now hold up to 10kg of weight – compared to the 5kg limit of the YOYO2, making it the perfect companion for a shopping day in the city.

Here are some other new features:

  • New ventilation window and possibility to close the peek-a-boo window
  • New extended canopy
  • Redesigned set pad: new cushion, increased back rest height, new buckle, 4th slot for the straps’ adjustment
  • New perforated backrest and seat area and mesh fabric for better air circulation
  • New basket (10kg capacity) and more convenient attachment
  • Reflecting wheels
  • Improved shock absorbers and soft drive
  • New frame in black and white
  • New 6+ colour pack
  • New 0+ newborn pack

The improved air circulation is especially important as little ones younger than six months are unable to regulate their own temperature. The new perforated backrest and ventilation window will ensure that whether you’re out for a windy winter walk or sweltering summer stroll, your baby will be comfortable.

Ready to go

The YOYO3 has all the same features as the YOYO2, it folds in and out in a flash and is light, compact and carry-on compatible.

Ready to grow

The YOYO3 is made to grow with your little one and has two newborn solutions, as well as sibling add-ons like the connect & board.
