Not sure I would suggest towing something up to 1000Kg with this car. I have a 490Kg caravan, and once loaded, I wouldn't say it's a struggle, but I wouldn't think it would be happy towing anything heavier.
I own a 2007 1.4 Honda Jazz Manual. I towed a fully laden (950kg) folding caravan tent around 150 miles each way. Acceleration was not great and hills were difficult at low speeds however it didn’t struggle on the motorways or back lanes. Great if you have a folding caravan tent or small hard top caravan that doesn’t exceed 1000kg fully laden. Would highly recommend checking rear suspension and potentially using rubber spring hardener rings to prevent excessive wear (especially if the suspension is original factory suspension).
Overall 4 out of 5 stars. Lack of power is the big killer
I have towed our Eriba Familia about 600 miles so far with our Honda Jazz 1.2 V Tech and it's been fine, though a very low gear is necessary on steep hills. However we have decided to trade in our present Jazz which has done around 35K for the larger engined 1.4 model and we feel that then, with the extra bit of power, our outfit will be ideally suited.
I need know others caravans possible with my car
I have not been to far with my caravan,40 miles max, but i found that as long as you try to keep a steady speed it's fine. You have to think ahead when it come's to roundabouts and junctions as the acceleration isn't great, but i'm happy to say no problems so far.
