The Stokke and Babyzen Story Behind the Name Change

Babyzen launched the original YOYO stroller in 2012, and it became a favourite among travelling families. Stokke, the Norwegian brand behind the iconic Tripp Trapp high chair, acquired Babyzen and relaunched the stroller as the YOYO³ in summer 2024. This is more than a rebrand. The frame, fabrics, and features were meaningfully updated. The Babyzen YOYO² is discontinued and no longer manufactured. Kido Bébé carries the Stokke YOYO³ as the current authorized model, ready to be seen and tested in Montreal.

What the YOYO³ Kept from the YOYO² 

The YOYO³ keeps the folded footprint and frame weight that made the YOYO² a travel favourite. The same two-step fold and Hytrel elastomer suspension carry over unchanged. Compliance with major airlines remains a core strength. Most YOYO² colour packs and accessories transfer directly to the new frame. If you loved how your YOYO² handled city streets and airport gates, the YOYO³ keeps that foundation intact while building on a decade of engineering refinement.

The Key Upgrades in the YOYO³

Kido Bébé's Montreal team tested the YOYO³ in store, and the Soft Drive four-wheel suspension stood out on uneven sidewalks. The underseat basket now holds 22 pounds, more than double the YOYO²'s capacity. The seat backrest is taller for growing toddlers, with a perforated panel and mesh ventilation window for better airflow. An integrated head cushion supports sleeping children, while reflective wheels add visibility after dark. The canopy window opens for peek-a-boo play and closes for naps.

Newborn Options on the YOYO³ vs YOYO²

Neither stroller is newborn-ready out of the box. Both need an accessory. YOYO² owners often choose the hard shell bassinet, which does not fold with the frame. The YOYO³ introduces a softer Newborn Pack with a sherpa-lined footmuff that folds down with the stroller, making it more practical for travel and storage. Infant car seat adapter compatibility carries over between generations. Before buying, confirm your car seat model against Stokke's Canadian adapter list to ensure a proper fit.

Travelling with the YOYO³ in Canada

The YOYO³ folds to 52 by 44 by 18 centimetres, a size accepted as carry-on by most major airlines, including Air Canada and WestJet. Policies vary by route and aircraft, so confirm with your carrier before departure. The integrated shoulder strap makes moving through security lines simple, and the optional travel bag adds protection when gate checking is unavoidable. For Montreal families flying out of YUL, the YOYO³ is one of the few compact strollers that consistently clears domestic overhead bins.

YOYO³ Accessories and the YOYO Connect 

Most YOYO² accessories move over to the YOYO³ without issue. Colour packs, rain covers, footmuffs, cup holders, parasols, and travel bags are cross compatible. The one exception is the handlebar, which needs a new unit built for the YOYO³ frame. New with this generation is the YOYO Connect, which turns a single YOYO³ into a double stroller for twins or close siblings, with up to five seating configurations. It still folds to cabin baggage dimensions. Visit Kido Bébé Montreal to see it assembled.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Stokke YOYO³ worth upgrading from the YOYO²?

If you already own a YOYO² in good condition, an immediate upgrade is not mandatory. The fold, size, and most accessories stay the same. For anyone buying new, the YOYO³ is the better choice. The basket holds more than double the weight, the seat is taller, ventilation is improved, and the Soft Drive suspension makes city pushing noticeably smoother. The YOYO² is discontinued and will become harder to service over time, so new buyers should choose the YOYO³.
