Cruz V3 support
Cruz V3 is the full-size single pram. It has the same seat quality, canopy and basket as Vista in a narrower, lighter frame, and it is suitable from birth with the included infant insert. Cruz is for one child at a time: it does not take a second seat. Choose it over Vista when you are confident one child is the plan, or when boot space matters more than the option to add a sibling later.
Everything for owning one, on a single page: answers, the manual, videos, what attaches to it, parts, and the programmes that stand behind it.
Quick answers
Can I use the Cruz V3 from birth?
Yes. It is suitable from birth as sold, using the included infant insert. A bassinet attaches directly to the frame if you would rather have a newborn lying flat, and it is sold separately.
Can the Cruz V3 carry two children?
No. The Cruz takes one child and no accessory changes that. If a second child is likely, the Vista V3 is the frame that absorbs one without being replaced.
Will a Cruz V3 fit in my boot?
Folded with the seat attached it is {cruz.folded}. With the seat removed it drops to {cruz.folded_no_seat}. Measure the opening of your boot rather than the space inside it.
How heavy is the Cruz V3?
{cruz.weight} with the frame and seat together. The frame alone is 7.7 kg and the seat 4.3 kg, so it lifts into a boot in two manageable pieces.
Does the Mesa capsule fit the Cruz V3?
Yes, directly, with no adapters. Other brands, including Maxi-Cosi, Nuna, Joie and BeSafe, fit using the same upper car seat adapter that covers Vista and Alta.
How is the Cruz V3 different from the Vista V3?
Same seat quality, canopy and basket, in a narrower and lighter frame that costs less. The trade is that the Cruz carries one child and the bassinet is not included.
Does the seat face me or face out?
Both. The seat is reversible and reclines flat enough for a newborn with the insert fitted.
How much can the basket hold?
The same generous basket as the Vista, reachable from either side including with the seat parent-facing.
