Advice with maximum weight
We do not recommend towing a caravan that is heavier than 1670 kg kg with this Skoda.
In this advice we assume an average caravan with a weight of 1670 kg. Remember that the exact performance depends on the chosen caravan and that air resistance and dimensions have an influence.
 Performance | |  Weight |
The Skoda Kodiaq 2.0 TDI 4x4 aut. with a Caravan as an example with an actual weight of 1670 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.
The motor preformance of the Skoda is in general very good. But the weight of the Caravan with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is quite heavy. Proper and careful loading is essential and don't drive too fast. Remember to load your caravan correctly, insuring that the noseweight of the caravan is sufficient and the weight is distributed properly!

Actual Weights
- Caravan as an example: 1670 kg.
- Skoda Kodiaq 2.0 TDI 4x4 aut.: 1977 kg.
- Noseweight: 90 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 84%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally very good on flat roads (performance score to compare 253 points).
- Speeds of 79 mph (128 km/h) to 85 mph (137 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is a lot of power at low engine speeds (score to compare 292 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 16.7 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally very good (score to compare 299 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 20%.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (2400 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 69 mph (111 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Skoda 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 (or B96) driving license.
- Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 84%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 94%.
- The risk of snaking at higher speeds, strong side winds and thoughtless driving exist. Even if the combination normally feels stable, the forces by deflection side to side are so great that it could be dangerous. Only if the driver has knowledge of and experience in driving a caravan it should be safe to drive. Proper and careful loading is essential! An electronic stability system in the car and / or on the caravan is recommended.
- Recommended noseweight is 90 kg.
- Safe speed up to 56 mph (90 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 123 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.
- Proper and careful loading is still important!
- 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.
