Advice with maximum weight

We do not recommend towing a caravan that is heavier than 500 kg kg with this Alfa Romeo.

In this advice we assume an average caravan with a weight of 500 kg. Remember that the exact performance depends on the chosen caravan and that air resistance and dimensions have an influence.

Performance
Weight

The Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4 Turbo with a Caravan as an example with an actual weight of 500 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Alfa Romeo is in general very good. 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.

Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Alfa Romeo is 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 35%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 41%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 50 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 60 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 317 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.
