Is this Outfit match useful for you? Please give a small contribution. Thank you!
The Toyota Auris TS 1.2T and the Caravan as an example of a laden weight of 1230 kg is a good combination for journeys on most kinds of roads, sometimes with some limitations in the mountains.
Weight
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.
Flat roads
The performances of the engine of this outfit are in general sufficient. Under favourable conditions on motorways it is possible to drive with 60 mph in the 5th gear, by giving the engine nearly full throttle. In that case the engine runs approximately 2500 rpm. For example, in a headwind or a crossover, downshift to the 4th gear. The engine runs approximately 3200 rpm (witch is maybe more noisily than usually accustomed).Mountains
On most motorways inclines (1:20) driving is easily possible in the 3th gear with 50 mph and even full throttle with 60 mph. Hill starts are possible on most slopes up to 13%. While driving the engine has enough power on slopes of 25% to drive.
The main details in a list. Ideal for comparing different combinations with one another, for example your present with a new one.
