Weight

The Honda CR-V 2.0i with a Sprite Alpine 2 with an actual weight of 1179 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Honda is in general more than sufficient. And also the weight of the Sprite with a User Payload (166 kg in the caravan and 200 kg in the car including passengers), is very good.

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Honda is more than 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 68%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 77%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 196 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

John Christian reviewed a Honda CR-V 2.0i:

"Excellent towing match, masses of power for any of the hills. Fuel solo 37mpg, and towing (staying with lorries at their 55mph) 23mpg. But if you boost along at 60mph the fuel is down to 19mpg. Lovely car, and so easy and comfortable to drive."
