 Performance | |  Weight |
The Skoda Yeti 2.0 TDI 4x4 with a Lunar Quasar 544 with an actual weight of 1340 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Skoda is in general very good. And also the weight of the Lunar with a User Payload (163 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is not too heavy, if the caravan is well loaded.

Actual Weights
- Lunar Quasar 544: 1340 kg.
- Skoda Yeti 2.0 TDI 4x4: 1760 kg.
- Noseweight: 75 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 76%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally very good on flat roads (performance score to compare 253 points).
- Speeds of 79 mph (127 km/h) to 84 mph (135 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is a lot of power at low engine speeds (score to compare 278 points).
- Higher revs (1600 rpm) are usually not necessary on flat roads, under most circumstances.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 15.9 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally very good (score to compare 303 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 20%.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (2400 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 69 mph (112 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Skoda 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 76%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 87%.
- 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 56 mph (90 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 154 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 very 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.
