Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Citroen 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 0%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 0%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 50 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 367 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.
  • 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

andy reviewed a Citroen Xsara 2.0 16v:

"Very good towing for a 2 door coupe. You certainly never see any others on the road especially pulling a caravan. I have a swift rapide (an older model) and the car handles it very well. The only thing i have to watch out for is the weight on the towbar.I usually have it around the 40 kilos mark and try to leave the boot light. This way the rear suspension handles it OK. More than enough power and i rarely slow down on motorway hills, although do drop it down to fourth gear!"
