Head-to-head comparison

Joie pact pro vs UPPAbaby Minu V3

Two compact travel strollers, both listed from birth with the seat reclined flat and both with a standing, one-hand fold. The pact pro is lighter at 6.3 kg (Joie does not say what that weight includes) against 7.6 kg as frame and seat for the Minu V3, and it costs about half as much. The Minu V3 has the larger published basket limit, 9.1 kg against 4.5 kg, takes a child to 22.7 kg against 22 kg, and UPPAbaby says it needs no insert or liner from birth; its seat faces forward only. Folded, Joie gives L 30 x W 40 x H 77 cm and UPPAbaby L 25 x W 45 x H 55 cm, so the Minu V3 folds much lower and the pact pro much narrower. Each needs a capsule adaptor that is not in the box. On 8 November 2026 Joie showed the pact pro at A$349.99, down from A$399.99, with a back in stock notice, and UPPAbaby listed the Minu V3 at $749, with 15% off in the cart until 2 December.

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.
