Peg Perego Volo is the first shortlist when a low published stroller weight and an included travel bag matter most. Silver Cross Clic is the more appealing arrangement when you repeatedly switch between pushing and carrying and want a shoulder strap built into the stroller. Volo is listed at 12 lb; Canadian Clic is 13.9 lb excluding its arm bar. The bag-versus-integrated-strap difference can matter more than that headline weight comparison.
Both are compact singles with adjustable seats and foot support. Neither requires moving into a large modular stroller just to get a recline. The decision here is how the empty stroller travels between the moments when your child rides in it: a short lift into the car, several changes of transport, or a longer stretch packed away.
At the car: Volo makes the lighter starting case
Peg Perego's Canadian Volo page lists a 12 lb stroller, an upright-standing compact fold and a practical carrying handle. If your usual transition is a direct lift from the sidewalk into a vehicle, you can use the stroller's carrying arrangement without making its travel bag part of every stop.
Silver Cross Canada lists Clic at 13.9 lb excluding the arm bar, with a one-hand, self-standing fold. Both therefore offer a folded stroller that can stand while you manage the rest of the departure. Clic's extra carrying feature is the shoulder strap stored within the seat.
These are published product weights, not the results of weighing two packed travel systems. Clic's figure excludes its arm bar, and Volo's 12 lb figure is not labelled as the weight of a stroller inside its travel bag. For a short car-loading lift, Volo has the stronger starting specification. For a longer carry, the position of the load and how you carry it deserve equal attention.
Between stops: Clic keeps the carrying strap with the stroller
Clic's pull-out shoulder strap is useful when carrying is brief but frequent. Once the empty stroller is folded, the strap is available without finding a separate bag. When the stroller is back in use, the strap stores within the seat. That arrangement suits a day where your child alternates between riding and walking, or where a compact stroller is folded several times between destinations.
Volo offers a different set of options. Its carrying handle serves a quick lift, while the included travel bag encloses the folded stroller and can be worn on the back. That keeps the stroller together as a separate bag for a longer packed-away period. Putting the stroller inside adds a step before departure and another before the next ride.
For a single journey followed by several hours without using the stroller, that extra step may be worthwhile. For repeated short interruptions, Clic's integrated strap is the simpler arrangement to shortlist. This is a difference in the carrying equipment and sequence, not a claim that one feels more comfortable on every caregiver's shoulder or back.
Try the intended carry method empty before choosing if carrying is the main reason for changing strollers. A low weight on paper cannot show whether a folded wheel rests against your clothing, whether a strap sits where you want it or whether a packed stroller blocks the bag you normally carry. One realistic lift with the intended equipment is more informative than comparing the two weight figures alone.
The fold is a shape, not a single size rating
Volo's published folded dimensions are 17.5 inches wide, 9.75 inches deep and 19.75 inches high. Clic folds to 18 inches wide, nine inches deep and 21 inches high. Volo is narrower and shorter in those figures; Clic is shallower. A storage shelf with limited depth can therefore favour Clic even though Volo is the lower-weight stroller.
For a narrow luggage space, Volo's shorter height may be useful. For a shallow gap behind another item, Clic's nine-inch depth may be more relevant. Treat each measurement in its correct orientation: tipping a package changes which dimension is vertical, but does not remove the other two dimensions. The published stroller fold also does not establish the exterior dimensions of a packed bag.
When open, the Canadian figures are 17.5 by 32 by 39.5 inches for Volo and 18 by 31 by 41.7 inches for Clic, in width, depth and height order. Those small footprint differences are secondary for many car-to-sidewalk trips. They become more useful when choosing a specific storage place or comparing how much room the stroller occupies while open. Overall height alone is not a complete measure of handle comfort.
On the walking part of the trip
Volo has a one-hand-adjustable backrest with a near-flat recline and an adjustable footrest. Clic has an adjustable calf support and footrest, and Silver Cross describes its seat as lie-flat. For a child who uses different sitting positions through an outing, these are meaningful features on both models; choosing the lower-weight Volo does not mean choosing a fixed upright backrest.
Both manufacturers also list magnetic harness buckles: Quick Lock on Volo and Genius 2 on Clic. Those names identify the respective systems, not a reason to rank one as safer. They are worth looking at alongside the actual straps and adjustment method, particularly when several caregivers will use the stroller. A buckle description does not replace correct harness adjustment.
Volo's Canadian page specifies suspension and ball bearings on all wheels. Clic's page highlights lockable wheels for city streets and park footpaths. That gives each a concrete walking feature beyond being light. It does not establish that either will outperform a larger stroller on rough ground, or that the same route will feel equally smooth with every passenger.
If the intended use is largely sidewalks, indoor destinations and car transfers, concentrate on the carry method and folded shape. If the walking route is the difficult part of the day, inspect that requirement before letting a small weight advantage decide the whole purchase. A compact stroller should make the actual outing easier, not only the lift at its beginning.
The included item you are likely to use
Volo's included travel bag is a tangible advantage if you would otherwise buy a bag to enclose the stroller for travel or storage. Clic's Canadian package includes its bumper bar and fitted rain cover. For regular wet-weather errands, an included cover can be the more frequently used accessory. Choose between those benefits according to the outings you actually expect, rather than counting every included item as equal value.
A travel bag does not guarantee airline cabin acceptance. The operating airline decides how the stroller will travel, so use its requirements and the dimensions of your packed configuration when planning a flight.
For either fold, keep children clear of the moving mechanism. The Volo instructions and Canadian Clic manual both include that warning. Carrying the empty folded stroller is a separate operation from using it with a child seated.
Choose the transition you repeat most
Start with Peg Perego Volo for a low published weight, shorter and slightly narrower fold, and a bag-included travel setup. It is especially logical when the stroller goes from car to destination, or when you expect to pack it away for a substantial part of the journey.
Start with Silver Cross Clic when frequent short carries make the built-in shoulder strap useful, a shallower fold fits your storage better, or the included rain cover serves regular outings. Accept the higher published starting weight for that arrangement, without assuming it will necessarily be harder to carry in your preferred position.
Both product pages provide colour choices and current delivery information. The lightweight and travel stroller collection is the next step if neither folded shape or carrying arrangement works for you. Between these two, Volo has the stronger low-weight-and-bag proposition; Clic has the clearer bag-free shoulder-carry proposition.
