The travel stroller that parents carry through departure gates the world over just had its biggest update in years. Stokke introduced the Stokke YOYO⁵ in September 2026 — announced in Europe on 1 September, after an earlier release in Asia and ahead of a late-2026 release in the US and Canada. Below is what Stokke actually changed, the full published specifications, and an honest YOYO⁵ vs YOYO³ comparison to help you choose between them.
The YOYO⁵ is in stock at Little Baby now. Build your YOYO⁵ — from S$860 for the stroller, S$1,275 with the Newborn Pack or S$1,389 with the Bassinet.
What’s new on the Stokke YOYO⁵
In one line: the YOYO⁵ keeps the compact, airport-friendly footprint the YOYO is loved for, and adds a genuinely one-hand fold. We have stayed close to what Stokke publishes here — where Stokke does not state something, we say so rather than guess.
The instant one-hand fold
The YOYO has always folded small. On the YOYO⁵ Stokke describes an “instant, one-hand fold”, with one-hand folding, unfolding and steering. That is the headline change, and it is the claim Stokke makes for this generation that it did not make for the YOYO³.
Separately there is the foldable handlebar, which Stokke calls the “Café function”: you drop the handlebar in seconds to shorten the stroller without folding it, so it pulls up to a café table or slots into a tight lift or train aisle. Worth knowing: this is a refinement, not a new trick — the YOYO³ already has a foldable handlebar too.
The seat and the ride
Here is what Stokke publishes about the YOYO⁵ seat and ride:
- An adjustable recline for naps on the go. Stokke does not publish a recline angle for either generation, so we will not quote one.
- A padded seat cushion with head support, on the Seat Pack.
- An extendable canopy with a peek-a-boo window and a ventilation window, in UPF 50+ fabric.
- All-wheel suspension — Stokke describes it as “all-wheel suspension for a smooth ride on everyday terrain”. Note the YOYO³ is the one with the named Hytrel® elastomer and “Soft Drive” system; Stokke does not name that technology on the YOYO⁵.
- Water-repellent, machine-washable fabrics (30°C).
Newborn-ready from day one
You can use the YOYO⁵ from birth with either the Newborn Pack or the Bassinet, both from birth to around 6 months and up to 9 kg.
The Newborn Pack lies fully flat, has ventilation windows in the canopy and the foot area, adds two storage pockets, and folds together with the frame so you keep the compact one-piece fold. The YOYO³ does this too — its pack is sold as the “0+ foldable newborn pack” — so this is continuity rather than a change.
The Bassinet is a structured, cocoon-style option with a semi-rigid shell and a fully flat interior, carry handles, and an openable canopy vent. It disassembles into two half-shells for storage, and both adaptor sets are included in the box. One practical difference: the bassinet must be removed before the frame folds, where the Newborn Pack folds with it.
Size, weight and travel
Folded, Stokke publishes the YOYO⁵ at 52 × 45 × 22 cm (20.5 × 17.7 × 8.7 in) and the stroller at about 7 kg with the Seat Pack fitted — 6.5 kg for the base frame on its own.
Set up, the two generations are effectively the same size. It is the folded pack that differs: the YOYO³ folds to 52 × 44 × 18 cm and weighs about 6.6 kg (Stokke’s stated total of 6.59 kg). So the YOYO⁵ is about 4 cm thicker, 1 cm taller and roughly 0.4 kg heavier.
On flying: Stokke markets the YOYO as a travel stroller, but it does not name any airline approval, cabin limit or certification for the YOYO⁵. Treat the folded dimensions as the fact and always check your own airline’s size and weight limits before you fly.

What Stokke does not publish
So you are not misled by figures floating around elsewhere, Stokke publishes no recline angle or recline position count, no leg-rest specification for the YOYO⁵, no brake type, no wheel or tyre dimensions, no suspension travel, no seat width or backrest height, and no European safety-standard number for this model. We have left all of those out rather than estimate them.

- S$1,389 — with the Bassinet, for use from birth

Colours
The Stokke YOYO⁵ comes in five seat-pack colours: Black, Taupe, Forest, Peach and Berry. The base frame is Black only, so the Seat Pack is what you dress it in — and you can buy another colour later and swap it, since all YOYO fabrics are removable and washable. The Newborn Pack and Bassinet come in the same five colours.
YOYO³ or YOYO⁵: which should you buy?
Both are in stock with us, so this is a straight choice rather than a wait. The YOYO³ is the proven option at the keener price, folds a little smaller and weighs a little less. The YOYO⁵ is the one to pick if the instant one-hand fold matters to you day to day — which, if you are often managing a baby and a bag at the same time, it very well might.
Questions parents ask us
These are the questions we get asked most about the YOYO⁵. If your question is not here, tap the help button in the corner of this page and chat with us.
When did the YOYO⁵ come out?
Stokke introduced it in September 2026 — announced in Europe on 1 September, after an earlier release in Asia, with the US and Canada following later in 2026. It is in stock with us in Singapore now.
What does the YOYO⁵ cost in Singapore?
From S$860 for the stroller (base frame and Seat Pack), S$1,275 with the Newborn Pack, or S$1,389 with the Bassinet. Build yours here.
What is actually different from the YOYO³?
Mostly the fold. Stokke claims an instant one-hand fold on the YOYO⁵, which it never claimed for the YOYO³. The folded pack is a little bigger (52 × 45 × 22 cm against 52 × 44 × 18 cm) and it is about 0.4 kg heavier. Stokke publishes no recline angle for either generation, and the named Hytrel® suspension technology actually belongs to the YOYO³, so be wary of comparisons that claim otherwise.
Can we still take it on the plane?
Folded it is about 52 × 45 × 22 cm, so it is 4 cm thicker and 1 cm taller than the YOYO³ and a little heavier. Stokke does not name any airline approval or cabin certification for it, so check your own airline’s limits before you fly.
From what age can we use it?
From birth with the Newborn Pack or the Bassinet, both up to 9 kg. From around 6 months you switch to the Seat Pack on the same frame, and that takes you to around 4 years or 22 kg.
What is the difference between the Newborn Pack and the Bassinet?
Both let your newborn lie fully flat. The Newborn Pack is a soft, fully flat nest that folds with the frame, which suits city life and travel. The Bassinet is a structured, cocoon-style carrycot with carry handles and a semi-rigid shell, and it comes with its frame adaptors — but it has to be removed before the stroller folds.
Does Little Baby sell it?
Yes. The YOYO⁵ is in stock and available to order now — build yours from S$860. We carry the whole YOYO range, and the YOYO³ is available to order too.
