 Performance | |  Weight |
The Chrysler Voyager 2.4i with a Bailey Senator Arizona with an actual weight of 1464 kg is in general a good match and suitable for journeys on most kinds of roads, sometimes with some limitations in the mountains.
The motor preformance of the Chrysler is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Bailey with a normally distributed User Payload (200 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is good.

Actual Weights
- Bailey Senator Arizona: 1464 kg.
- Chrysler Voyager 2.4i: 2105 kg.
- Noseweight: 80 kg.
- Actual weight ratio: 70%.
Performance
- The engine's performance is generally good on flat roads (performance score to compare 206 points).
- Speeds of 72 mph (116 km/h) to 78 mph (126 km/h) are often quite possible.
- There is sufficient power at low engine speeds (score to compare 155 points).
- Slightly higher revs (2400 rpm) may be necessary under normal conditions on flat roads.
- Acceleration from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) is theoretically possible in 23.6 sec.
- In the mountains the performance is generally fairly good (score to compare 198 points).
- No problems are to be expected on steep mountain roads but the performance is not that great. Hill starts are possible on steep slopes up to 11%, but do require some experience from the driver.
- On motorway inclines higher revs (4100 rpm) are needed.
- A speed of 60 mph (97 km/h) is usually possible on most motorway inclines.
Weight
- The towing limit of the Chrysler is sufficient (check this in your vehicle documents).
- The car is too heavily loaded.
- Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 70%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 77%.
- 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 80 kg.
- Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
- Stability and safety score to compare is 176 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 good match, sometimes with some limitations in the mountains.
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.
