The towing limit is exceeded by 204 kg!
It is not allowed to drive with this Swift.
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 Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 CRD with a Swift Conqueror 645 with an actual weight of 1804 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Chrysler is in general fairly good. And also the weight of the Swift with a User Payload (160 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is pretty good.

Actual Weights
- Swift Conqueror 645: 1804 kg.
- Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8 CRD: 2400 kg.
- Noseweight: 100 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 75%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally good on flat roads (performance score to compare 224 points).
- Speeds of 76 mph (122 km/h) to 81 mph (131 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is more than enough power at low engine speeds (score to compare 249 points).
- Higher revs (1600 rpm) are usually not necessary on flat roads, under most circumstances.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 22.3 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally good (score to compare 238 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 17%.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (2900 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 63 mph (101 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit is exceeded by 204 kg (check this in your vehicle documents).
- If you passed your driving test after 1 January 1997, you will need a B+E driving license.
- Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 75%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 83%.
- 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 90 - 100 kg.
- Towball limit is 80 kg (Check this on the type plate of your towbar!)
- Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 167 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 fairly good.
- 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.
