On September 16th, 2010 (tomorrow), Bugaboo will launch its latest stroller at the Kind & Jugend Fair in Cologne, Germany. I am happy to share a sneak peak at Bugaboo Donkey. As you will see, the new stroller adds storage and is more versatile for young families. It’s particularly interesting for family of 2.
In three clicks, you can easily convert the Bugaboo Donkey from a full-sized mono stroller to a full-sized side by side duo stroller and back again to a mono stroller. In mono configuration the Bugaboo Donkey has the same width than the Bugaboo Cameleon. This is possible since the Cameleon fits a bassinet. Here, they move the position of the seat to fit an expandable side luggage basket. There is also storage under the seat.
For parents with two young children or twins, the Donkey converts into one of the narrowest duo strollers (72 cm in width). Unfortunately, you will have to wait until Spring 2011 to buy a Bugaboo Donkey in the USA, UK, Netherlands and Spain. Other countries will follow later.
I saw it in action on a private video and it seems pretty easy to convert. I am looking forward to see color pictures. Sept. 22nd Update: I added the video which is now public.
