In the last couples of years I towed with my 1.5dci Dacia a Gruau caravan weighting 600kg/850kg. The car had no serious issues towing the caravan no matter the road type. It can tow for hundreds or thousands of km without any issues. Extremely stable even with powerful side wind and very comfortable at speeds of 90-100 km/h. No issues on mountain roads and on motorways also, except for the long inclined sections where I had to use a lower gear. On the other hand, surprisingly for the 1.5 Renault dci the fuel consumption stayed always high, at a range of 8l/100 km – mainly due to the caravan as with the actual caravan (a heavier and longer Knaus) the fuel consumption dropped by 1.5l.
