Advice with maximum weight
We do not recommend towing a caravan that is heavier than 1000 kg kg with this Honda.
In this advice we assume an average caravan with a weight of 1000 kg. Remember that the exact performance depends on the chosen caravan and that air resistance and dimensions have an influence.
 Performance | |  Weight |
The Honda Jazz 1.3 aut. with a Caravan as an example with an actual weight of 1000 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Honda is in general just 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 good.

Actual Weights
- Caravan as an example: 1000 kg.
- Honda Jazz 1.3 aut.: 1393 kg.
- Noseweight: 65 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 72%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally fairly good on flat roads (performance score to compare 166 points).
- Speeds of 63 mph (102 km/h) to 69 mph (112 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is only very moderate power at low engine speeds (score to compare 31 points).
- Slightly higher revs (3800 rpm) may be necessary under normal conditions on flat roads.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 25.5 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally fairly good (score to compare 162 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 14%.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (6000 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 54 mph (87 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Honda 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 72%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 84%.
- The chance of snaking is relatively small at normal speed, if the caravan is well loaded.
- Recommended noseweight is 65 kg.
- Safe speed up to 60 mph (100 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 186 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 just sufficient.
- 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.
