Head-to-head comparison

UPPAbaby Cruz V3 vs Nuna MIXX next

Two single full-size prams with a reversible seat that is listed from birth, and no bassinet in the standard bundle. The Cruz V3 has the much larger basket; the MIXX next has the lower manufacturer price and includes capsule adaptors. UPPAbaby publishes a fold of 43 x 57.2 x 82.3 cm with the seat attached (order not labelled), and Nuna's Australian comparison table, checked on 25 October 2026, gives L 76 x W 60 x H 42 cm for the MIXX next folded with the seat.

Specification comparison by Pramkin editorial, from each brand's Australian product pages. Key figures re-checked 25 October 2026. Not a hands-on review and not a car-fit test.

Folded size
The MIXX next has the shorter longest side when folded: 76 cm against 82.3 cm. These are the manufacturers' published folds, not a car-fit test, so measure your boot opening as well.

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.
