 Performance | |  Weight |
The Audi A6 Avant 3.0 TDI Quattro aut. with a Swift Conqueror 645 with an actual weight of 1775 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Audi is in general very good. But the weight of the Swift with a User Payload (160 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is quite heavy, but no problem if the caravan is well loaded and the driving speed is not too fast.

Actual Weights
- Swift Conqueror 645: 1775 kg.
- Audi A6 Avant 3.0 TDI Quattro aut.: 2155 kg.
- Noseweight: 95 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 82%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally very good on flat roads (performance score to compare 307 points).
- Speeds of 90 mph (145 km/h) to 94 mph (151 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is a lot of power at low engine speeds (score to compare 412 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 9.9 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally very good (score to compare 382 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads (up to 30%). Not even on Hill starts.
- On motorway inclines hardly any higher revs are needed.
- A speed of 82 mph (133 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Audi is more than sufficient (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 82%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 92%.
- 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 95 kg.
- Safe speed up to 56 mph (90 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 138 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 very 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.
