Performance
Weight

The Hyundai Coupe 2.0i CVVT with a Compass Omega 482 with an actual weight of 1385 kg is a match just suitable for most journeys but also with some limitations.

The motor preformance of the Hyundai is in general more than sufficient. But the weight of the Compass with a User Payload (160 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is quite heavy. Proper and careful loading is essential and don't drive too fast. Remember to load your caravan correctly, insuring that the noseweight of the caravan is sufficient and the weight is distributed properly!

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Hyundai is sufficient (check this in your vehicle documents).
  • If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, a B driving license is enough.
  • Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 89%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 102%.
  • The risk of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving exist. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are so great that it could be dangerous. Only if the driver has knowledge of and experience in driving a caravan it should be safe to drive. Proper and careful loading is essential! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is recommended.
  • Recommended noseweight is 70 - 75 kg.
  • Towball limit is 60 kg (Check this on the type plate of your towbar!)
  • Safe speed up to 56 mph (90 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 103 points.

If the caravan starts to snake you should reduce your speed and slow down directly! Lift your feet off the accelerator and brake gradually. Hold the steering wheel into a fixed position.

Conclusion

  • Performance is more than sufficient.
  • Proper and careful loading is still important!
  • It's a fairly good match, only for experienced (caravan) drivers and with some limitations.

 

Influence of User Payload on stability

Weight distribution and noseweight are vital in obtaining a stable caravan.

Distribute the User Payload by yourself in the caravan and the car and then find out the stability rating of your loading configuration.

User Reviews

charlie reviewed a Hyundai Coupe 2.0i CVVT:

"car is so good you hardly notice that you are towing, pulls effortlessly up hills, on the motorway, drives very well. BUT, parking is 'challenging'. The coupe is terrible on grass, and over bumps, so when you come to pitching, it has to be flat and dry, and no large speed bumps on the way into the campsite.

It wheel-spins if you are hard on it, again, especially when pitching and setting off.

That said, this is outweighed by the power of the car, and the way it drives when towing. it makes towing over a long distance a really enjoyable drive. "
