The UPPAbaby Aria V2 is a premium lightweight infant car seat designed for modern families who want top-tier safety without the bulk. Weighing just 6 pounds, it’s one of the best lightweight infant car seats for everyday use, making it easy to carry, install, and transition between car and stroller.
Suitable from as little as 4 pounds with the included infant insert up to 30 pounds or 30 inches, the Aria V2 grows with your baby while maintaining a secure, comfortable fit. Advanced safety features like the Load Leg and Anti-Rebound+ Panel help reduce crash forces, while side impact protection with energy-absorbing EPP foam enhances protection in the event of a collision.
Installation is simple and confidence-inspiring thanks to the SmartSecure® system with visual indicators, auto-retracting LATCH connectors, and a built-in lock-off for seatbelt installs. Dual bubble level indicators and an adjustable base foot help ensure the correct angle in a wide range of vehicles, and the slim 17-inch footprint maximizes backseat space.
Designed with comfort in mind, this infant car seat features a no-rethread harness and a 25-position adjustable headrest that can be adjusted while baby is seated. The two-piece infant insert provides proper positioning for preemies and newborns, while the extra-large UPF 50+ canopy with ventilation keeps your baby cool and protected.
Ideal for travel, the Aria V2 is FAA certified for aircraft use and allows for secure baseless installation—perfect for rideshares and flights. It pairs seamlessly with UPPAbaby Vista® and Cruz® strollers, with adapters available for Minu® and Ridge®, creating a convenient travel system.
Crafted with premium materials, the Aria V2 features fire-retardant-free DualTech™ fabrics that are GREENGUARD® Gold Certified for healthier air quality. With removable, machine-washable fabrics, an ergonomic carry handle, and included All-Weather FootCover, this infant car seat delivers convenience, comfort, and peace of mind from day one.
