Head-to-head comparison

Bugaboo Donkey 6 Mono vs Bugaboo Kangaroo

Two Bugaboo prams that start as a single with a carrycot or bassinet in the box and take a second child later with a sibling seat, sold separately. The difference is the layout: the Donkey 6 becomes a side-by-side double, while the Kangaroo adds the second seat in tandem. Both showed $1,999 on Bugaboo's Australian site on 14 October 2026, reduced from $2,049.

Specification comparison by Pramkin editorial, from each brand's Australian product pages. Key figures re-checked 14 October 2026. Not a hands-on review and not a car-fit test.

Will it fit your car?

We have not tested either pram in a car. Compare the published folds above with your boot opening and floor; the shape of the boot matters as much as the numbers.
