Weight

The Mitsubishi ASX 1.6 with a Avondale Dart 380-2 with an actual weight of 1000 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Mitsubishi is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Avondale with a User Payload (174 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Mitsubishi is 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 65%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 74%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 65 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 214 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.
  • 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

Tim Cottage reviewed a Mitsubishi ASX 1.6:

"Towing with the 1.6 ASA petrol is fine with 2 adults and a dog. On the flat its easy. Any slight up would slope for say a mile or more then i have to start to change down in gears. Drove it around Cornwall which had long slops so sometime in 2nd gear to maintain mph. Car coped very well despite only being a 1.6"
