Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Mazda 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 52%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 59%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 60 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 261 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.
  • 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

Dennis reviewed a Mazda 6 2.0 CiTD:

"The Mazda6 is great at towing our Bailey Pageant Provence, it returns around 21mpg. The only problem is reversing the van into tight spots, I have almost burnt out my clutch on a couple of occasions. Could do with a motor mover on the van then all would be perfect."
