 Performance | | Weight |
The Hyundai i30 - 2.0 with a Ace Jubilee Diplomat with an actual weight of 1207 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Hyundai is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Ace with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is not too heavy, if the caravan is well loaded.

Actual Weights
- Ace Jubilee Diplomat: 1207 kg.
- Hyundai i30 - 2.0: 1552 kg.
- Noseweight: 70 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 78%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally fairly good on flat roads (performance score to compare 198 points).
- Speeds of 69 mph (111 km/h) to 75 mph (121 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is only moderate power at low engine speeds (score to compare 103 points).
- Slightly higher revs (2800 rpm) may be necessary under normal conditions on flat roads.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 21.7 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally good (score to compare 200 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 13%, but do require some experience from the driver.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (4200 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 60 mph (96 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Hyundai 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.
- The caravan is too heavily loaded.
- Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 78%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 91%.
- There is a small chance of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are great at high speed. For drivers with knowledge of, and experience in driving a caravan it is safe to drive, but proper and careful loading is still important! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is worth considering.
- Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
- Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 155 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 more than sufficient.
- If the caravan is well loaded 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.
