Mitsubishi L200 DC 2.4 DI-D+ aut. Caravan as an example

Advice with maximum weight

We do not recommend towing a caravan that is heavier than 1800 kg kg with this Mitsubishi.

In this advice we assume an average caravan with a weight of 1250 kg. Remember that the exact performance depends on the chosen caravan and that air resistance and dimensions have an influence.

Performance

Weight

The Mitsubishi L200 DC 2.4 DI-D+ aut. with a Caravan as an example with an actual weight of 1250 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Mitsubishi is in general very good. And also the weight of the Caravan with a User Payload (-350 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Weight ratio: 57% (63% of kerbweight) 1250 kg 2175 kg

Payloads

The User Payload in the car (including all passengers) and in the caravan is:

Car
200 kg 50 kg 100 kg 150 kg 200 kg 250 kg 300 kg 350 kg 400 kg 450 kg 500 kg 600 kg 700 kg 800 kg

Caravan
-350 kg 50 kg 100 kg 150 kg 200 kg 250 kg 300 kg 350 kg 400 kg

A User Payload of -350 kg in the caravan is not realistic in practice.
