The UPPAbaby VISTA V2 and the UPPAbaby CRUZ V2 are two of the most popular strollers on the market. And because they're made by the same great brand, the frames and seats of both strollers are almost identical. However, there are some significant differences between the Vista and the Cruz.

If you're deciding between the two, here's the most important question to ask:Do you want your stroller to grow with your family? As a convertible stroller, the Vista has the ability to convert from a single stroller to a double when a second child comes along. Meanwhile, the Cruz can seat only one child (unless you add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack ride-along board, an accessory available for both strollers).

• VISTA V2 & CRUZ V2 are both considered full-size strollers

• VISTA V2 & CRUZ V2 now have the exact same toddler seat and updated & upgraded canopy.

• Full-size reversible Toddler Seats with a higher back, longer leg rest, and deeper footrest

• Canopy with zip-out fabric extender, two air vent panels, and UPF 50+ coverage

• Five-point, no-rethread harness

• Suitable from 3 months to 50 lbs.

• VISTA V2 & CRUZ V2 both boast 100% full-grain leather details

• VISTA V2 & CRUZ V2 now has the same fashion options which mean you don’t have to sacrifice the stroller you want for the colour you crave.

Overall, the Vista is a larger stroller that is best for your growing family, with an oversized basket, bigger wheels, an included bassinet, and the ability to accommodate a second child. That's why some parents prefer the VISTA, and it's also why others prefer the Cruz, which is lighter and more narrow while priced at $400 less.
