Weight

The Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi with a Coachman Amara 380/2 with an actual weight of 1195 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 good. And also the weight of the Coachman with a User Payload (128 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Honda is more than 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 62%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 70%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 219 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 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.

User Reviews

Tony reviewed a Honda CR-V 2.2i-CTDi:

"Towed this combination from the Humber region to La Rochelle in SW France no issues at all if the balance in the van is correct. Averaged Between 26 and 28 miles per Gallon with full luggage 4 adults . On UK motorways with vans passing at 70 plus mph could feel a slight wobble from the caravan but nothing more. Reversing was a doddle with no clutch smells unlike with our 1.9tdi Passat which really smelled in reverse. No traction issues either. Parking brake very easy to pull on effectively. Not a rocket ship but good steady tow car with bags of luggage space."
