Maxi-Cosi Lara 2 vs Silver Cross Clic 2: Which Lightweight Pram Is Best for Your Family Trip in 2025?
Travelling with little ones just got easier, but choosing the right pram can still be a challenge. At Thursday’s Child Rental, we understand that parents need prams that are compact, comfortable, and stylish—without the long-term commitment of buying. Two of our most popular travel stroller rentals, the Maxi-Cosi Lara 2 and the Silver Cross Clic 2, are perfect for holidays, city breaks, and everyday adventures. But which is right for your family?
In this comparison, we break down the key features of each to help you make the best decision for your next trip.
Lightweight Design & Portability
Maxi-Cosi Lara 2
Weighing just 6.3kg, the Lara 2 is a featherlight option ideal for travel. It features a one-hand, ultra-compact fold that fits easily into overhead airplane compartments and small car boots. Its shoulder strap makes carrying it through airports or train stations effortless.
Silver Cross Clic 2
Even lighter at 5.9kg, the Clic 2 is a top pick for parents who prioritise portability. It also boasts a one-handed fold and a built-in carry strap. The updated model features improved suspension and a sleeker silhouette—making it not only practical but also stylish.
Verdict: The Silver Cross Clic 2 wins on weight, but both models are incredibly travel-friendly.
Comfort for Baby
Maxi-Cosi Lara 2
The Lara 2 offers dual breathable seat padding, adjustable recline including lie-flat mode, and a padded 5-point harness. It’s ideal for naptime on the go, and the large canopy with UPF 50+ sun protection keeps your child shaded.
Silver Cross Clic 2
The Clic 2 features a fully ventilated seat, multi-recline positions including lie-flat, and a plush harness system. The enhanced suspension ensures a smooth ride even on bumpy pavements, and the extendable UPF50+ hood adds excellent coverage.
Verdict: Both are comfortable & so similar it has to be a draw
Storage & Features
Maxi-Cosi Lara 2
Two storage baskets (a rarity in travel strollers!) make the Lara 2 great for holding nappies, toys, and on-the-go essentials. You’ll also find an adjustable leg rest and lockable front swivel wheels for added convenience.
Silver Cross Clic 2
The Clic 2 includes a decent-sized basket for a compact stroller, and its updated wheels provide more stability. However, it lacks the dual-basket option that gives Lara 2 a unique edge.
Verdict: Maxi-Cosi Lara 2 offers better storage versatility.
Style & Build Quality
Both strollers deliver premium quality and a modern aesthetic. The Clic 2’s minimalist design and upgraded frame make it look high-end and Instagram-ready, while the Lara 2 balances smart design with function.
Verdict: Style-conscious parents may lean towards the Silver Cross Clic 2, but both strollers turn heads for the right reasons.
