Yeah we have a Litetrax 4 and it hits the middle ground for us. I can’t fit the 3yo’s bike in the boot with our travel system now he’s on 14” wheels, but I can with this. It’s also sturdy enough for the 3yo to occasionally hop in while I wear the 1yo, which is handy on days out.

I have the Litetrax 4. The one handed fold is amazing, especially when you are alone with baby. It also clicks very easily from carseat into the stroller, which is great when they’re small and fall asleep in the car.

To add, we often go on walks on winefarms/veld etc and it holds well. It’s not a 4x4 pram, but copes with the slightly rugged roads.

I got older models off marketplace on baby 3! So far my fave single stroller is litetrax, double is Hauck Uptown Duo! Light but sturdy, big baskets, enough to last & I’ve taken them to beaches, old towns, cities - plus I live in a pretty hilly area!

All three of those are solid choices, just aimed slightly differently - so it really comes down to *how often you’ll fold and carry it vs how long you’ll use it*. * **Bugaboo Butterfly** \- great for city + car use. It’s one of the lightest and folds with one hand, genuinely compact in the boot. The seat is nicely padded, reclines well, and feels higher-end in steering. Main limitation: smaller basket and the seat doesn’t face you, so it’s best once baby’s around 6 months+. * **Joie Litetrax 4 / Evo / Literax 3** \- sturdier, heavier but super durable. Larger basket, good suspension for smoother rides, and often fits older toddlers comfortably. The trade-off is portability - lifting it in/out of the car gets tiring fast. * **Maxi-Cosi Eva 3** (or **Leona 2**, if similar spec) - sits between those two: compact fold but feels a bit more “full pram” than Butterfly. Parents tend to like the adjustable handle and reversible seat, though it’s slightly bulkier when folded. Given your situation (city driving, smooth surfaces, minimal walking), I’d lean **Butterfly - Eva 3 - Litetrax**, in that order. You’d get the easiest day-to-day use without feeling flimsy. If you can, check which models your car boot actually fits - Butterfly and Eva 3 are both under 55 cm folded height, which helps for smaller cars. Hope that helps narrow it down a bit! I've been working on a personal project for a while to help parents compare options like this so I've learned quite a bit about different strollers - happy to share if you're curious.

Meinst du den Fox, Butterfly oder Donkey? Was sind denn deine Wünsche und Vorstellungen für einen Wagen und möchtest du viel Geld ausgeben? Der Gebrauchtmarkt ist ansonsten echt voll. Joie hat ich nen Buggy von, ist Okay, nicht die Höchste Qualität. Ansonsten hab ich noch nen Joolz und nen Cybex, habe alle Vor und Nachteile, je nachdem was man will.

Wir haben einen ANB Salsa Air gebraucht gekauft für um die 200€. Nach ca 8/9 Monaten sind wir schon auf einen Joie Buggy umgestiegen, da der Salsa einfach zu groß war für das Auto und das ständige an und ab machen von dem Sportsitz gestört hat (wir haben auch ein kleines Auto) Mit 1,5 Jahren haben wir noch einen Cybex Orfeo gekauft (primär fürs Fliegen, und wenig Platz im Urlaubsort) Seit dem wir den Orfeo haben nutzen wir den Joie nicht mehr. Der Orfeo ist viel leichter und wendiger 😄. Achja den Salsa haben wir wieder für 200€ verkauft. Autositz würde ich unabhängig vom Kinderwagen kaufen. Wir haben uns den ADAC Test angeschaut und im Babywalz ausprobiert ob der Sitz ins Auto passt und dort gekauft. Ich hoffe ich konnte helfen 💕
