We have a Cybex e-priam. They now have a gazelle that similarly has a motor but can accommodate two kids.
Anyway. The bassinet is longer than typical so it lasted us longer.
The stroller itself is a BEAST. The motor kicks in when you’re going uphill, downhill, or go on uneven terrain like grass, gravel, sand, snow.
It also has this thing where you push in the wheels so you can safely get the stroller up and down the stairs with the kid in it.
The basket doesn’t fit too too much. Two things here: 1) we’ve never actually had an issue with this but maybe we just don’t lug around crap I’m not sure (I always thought I’m not a minimalist mom) and 2) the basket weight limit they cite is crap. We’ve put like 40 pounds of groceries and other stuff in there all the time with zero issues.
The car seat that is made by the same company reclines flat in the stroller which prolongs how long you can have a baby in a car seat. It won’t recline flat in the car.
We’ve also used it for 2.5 years and it looks and drives like new.
The stroller is expensive. The gazelle version is half the price. I can’t speak to it at all because I’ve never seen it live but I suspect the bassinet is smaller.
Do you have a shop near you that stocks all three?
I really thought the e-Priam ticked all our boxes on paper (we also live on a hill and could use the assistance) but because of that motor it is easily the heaviest pushchair I have tried out. I realised there was no way I could lift it by myself to put in a car boot and then I was worried if I forgot to charge it or the battery ran out halfway home, it could be even harder to push uphill than a regular stroller. But it seemed really good apart from that.
Current stroller is great. Cybex e Priam.
Baby loves it, so we do. Kid number 3 now.
Before with 2nd daughter we had vista. She hated it. Sold in brand new condition.
For car seat idk, she is 96% tall and barely fits her car seat.
Should buy convertible, we rarely drive and never used it on a stroller at all.

Not in California but live in hilly area. I have the Epriam and its great function to have when pushing up and going downhill. As someone mentioned about the self rocking function it definitely csn be jerky if u set it on the highest speed( wouldn't recommend) if you use rhe low setting its great.
