Those Danes, so strong and silent. Look what they’ve been up to while we haven’t been paying attention:
It’s called the Seed Pli. Sleek, yes? But wait, there’s more! Here’s the chassis, folded:
See how the wheels flip over the base? Big wheels, small profile. Does it get any better than this?
If my math is correct, dimensions for the whole thing, folded, are 32.7 long by 22.8 wide by 7.9 high. Tossing that in the SUV should be no challenge at all; in fact, tossing it into most trunks should work just fine.
But wait, there’s more! In fact, this buggy may come close to being the holy grail of the pram world. The seat and stroller are all-in-one, and they FOLD all-in-one. Take that, Bugaboo!
Of course, you’ll have to move to Denmark to buy one. But it would be so worth it.

5/18/2010 – Seed comments, pointing out that moving to Denmark is NOT necessary. They ship, apparently everywhere. (Impressive list appears in the comment; click “comments” under the title of this post to see.)
I’ve also found them for sale in Germany.
As a bonus information, I can tell that the Seed Pli can be purchased in: Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, United Kingdom, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Israel, Hong Kong, China (PRC) and of course directly from our show room in Copenhagen. We ship all over the world and there are Seed Pli’s a far away as USA (Washington DC, New York and Philadelphia), Costa Rica and South Africa.
This summer we launch a special edition, Seed Pli Fiat 500, in co-operatin with Italian car manufacturer FIAT. It’s cool and continues the story of both the ‘60es design icon Fiat 500 and the Danish design tradition.
