Weight

The Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi with a Swift Challenger Sport 584 with an actual weight of 1453 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 Swift with a User Payload (156 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is not too heavy, if the caravan is well loaded.

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, you will need a B+E (or B96) driving license.
  • Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 76%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 85%.
  • 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 80 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 56 mph (90 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 152 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

Cameron reviewed a Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi:

"What a super tow car this is. I have towed with all sorts of cars and I can honestly say this is the best by a long mile. I recently had a courtesy car, Mitsubishi L200, and I thought it was rubbish compared to my Honda.It tows so easily and effortlessly on all sorts of roads and with the rear view camera, hitching up is a doddle and causes less arguments with the wife.Would I recommend this car as a tow vehicle......MOST DEFINITELY."
