Meet the Bugaboo Butterfly 2: A Smart, Sustainable Travel Stroller for Modern Families

Bugaboo has been busy this year, recently launching the Fox 5 Renew and teaming up with Konges Sløjd for a dreamy design collab. Now, the brand is back with another big release: the Butterfly 2, a reimagined version of its award-winning travel stroller, available for pre-order starting today.

Happy family outdoors with Bugaboo Butterfly 2

With a focus on comfort, convenience, and sustainability, the Butterfly 2 is built to make life on the go smoother for families, whether you’re tackling a day in the city or catching a flight with a toddler in tow.

What’s New in the Butterfly 2?

Bugaboo calls it a complete reimagination of the travel stroller, and the upgrades show it. Still compact and ultra-lightweight at just 16 lbs, the Butterfly 2 introduces thoughtful new features that help parents stay organized and kids stay cozy.

Smarter Design for Everyday Life

  • A new back seat pocket makes it easy to stash snacks, wipes, or your phone.
  • The upgraded sun canopy offers better protection and now includes a peekaboo window for quick check-ins.
  • A one-hand adjustable footrest, padded harness, and built-in shoulder strap are small details that make a big difference when you’re on the move.

Built Tough for Real Life

  • The wheels are bigger and sturdier, offering full suspension to handle rough sidewalks and bumpy terrain. Bugaboo even tested them to last more than 2,400 miles.
  • The one-second fold is as smooth as ever, and it’s IATA-compatible—perfect for airplane overhead bins.
  • Every stroller undergoes over 10,000 folding cycles to ensure long-term durability.

In line with its B Corp™ certification, Bugaboo continues to prioritize sustainability. The Butterfly 2 boasts a 37% lower CO2 footprint than the original model, using 60% recycled aluminum and bio-based plastics in its construction.

Safety and Comfort Go Hand in Hand

Designed with both babies and caregivers in mind, the Butterfly 2 exceeds global safety standards, with ergonomic features that keep your child secure and you in control.

The Butterfly 2 has already earned some recognition, taking home the Red Dot: Best of the Best Award 2025 for product design.

Four Colors, One Smooth Ride

When it starts shipping June 3, the Butterfly 2 will be available in Forest Green, Desert Taupe, Deep Indigo, and Midnight Black. The price point? $599 USD.
