The Ssangyong Korando e-xDi 200 [4WD] with a Swift Challenger Sport 554 with an actual weight of 1420 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Ssangyong is in general good. And also the weight of the Swift with a User Payload (153 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is pretty good.

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Ssangyong 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 72%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 81%.
  • 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 62 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 170 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 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

Dave Fulton reviewed a Ssangyong Korando e-xDi 200 [4WD]:

"Just purchased a new Korando SE4 after reading various reports on its towing abilities. Another reason for our choice was its value.....a proper 4x4 diesel with electronic diff lock for under £17K.
Our first outing was quite a challenge with a trip through the Peak District with steep hills and sharp bends everywhere. The Korando towed our Compass Corona 462 (1231kgs) with ease whilst we rode in comfort.
On a blustery return journey on the M6 the car and caravan were totally stable. I am very impressed with the Korando and was even slightly disappointed that I didn't get chance to test its 4x4 credentials.
The ultimate measure of the car's performance was that I felt totally confident in its abilities and arrived at our destination without feeling stressed and shattered!!
Average consumption on our Peak District trip over 160 miles including those steep hills was 35mpg. Not bad for a new car. The 2ltr diesel pumps out 150bhp and 360nm of torque and the Korando will tow up to 2000kgs. What a cracking value for money tow vehicle!!"
