Seat Ibiza ST 1.0 Eco TSI Caravan as an example

Advice with maximum weight

We do not recommend towing a caravan that is heavier than 900 kg kg with this Seat.

In this advice we assume an average caravan with a weight of 900 kg. Remember that the exact performance depends on the chosen caravan and that air resistance and dimensions have an influence.

Performance

Weight

The Seat Ibiza ST 1.0 Eco TSI with a Caravan as an example with an actual weight of 900 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Seat is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Caravan with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.
