Make sure the towing limit is correct.
We now give advice based on the assumption that the legal maximum towing weight is higher for your car and that the car should be allowed to tow this caravan!
The Fiat Panda 1.2 with a Freedom Jetstream Prima with an actual weight of 850 kg is a match suitable for most journeys, sometimes with some limitations.
The motor preformance of the Fiat is in general moderate but for your use maybe sufficient. The weight of the Freedom with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), kgis good.

Actual Weights
- Freedom Jetstream Prima: 850 kg.
- Fiat Panda 1.2: 1160 kg.
- Noseweight: 60 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 73%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally sufficient on flat roads (performance score to compare 116 points).
- Speeds of 57 mph (92 km/h) to 64 mph (104 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is only very moderate power at low engine speeds (score to compare 72 points).
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 35.7 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally (very) moderate (score to compare 79 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads but the performance is not that great. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 9%, but do require some experience from the driver.
- On motorway inclines the speed drops despite high revs.
- A speed of 46 mph (74 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit is exceeded by 50 kg (check this in your vehicle documents).
- If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, a B driving license is enough.
- The caravan is too heavily loaded.
- Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 73%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 89%.
- The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
- Recommended noseweight is 60 kg.
- Stability and safety score to compare is 196 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 moderate but for your use maybe sufficient.
- Safe driving is possible.
- It's a good match, sometimes with some limitations.
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.
