Weight

The Honda CR-V 2.0i with a Lunar Quasar 534 with an actual weight of 1305 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Honda is in general fairly good. And also the weight of the Lunar with a User Payload (159 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is pretty good.

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Honda is more than 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 73%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 82%.
  • There is a small chance of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are great at high speed. For drivers with knowledge of, and experience in driving a caravan it is safe to drive, but proper and careful loading is still important! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is worth considering.
  • Recommended noseweight is 75 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 171 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 fairly good.
  • If the caravan is well loaded safe driving is possible.
  • It's a perfect match!

 

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

Martin reviewed a Honda CR-V 2.0i:

"As a tow car I don’t recommend this car at all I struggled to achieve 20.1mpg on a roads and motorways the distance I travelled was about 100 miles if I had to go any further than that mpg would have dropped even lower it is a very underpowered car my advice would be to stay well clear"
