Weight

The Honda Stream 2.0 with a Bailey Ranger 500/5 with an actual weight of 1244 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 fairly good. 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 pretty good.

Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Honda is 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 74%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 84%.
  • 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 70 kg.
  • Safe speed up to 62 mph (100 km/h).
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 165 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 fairly good.
  • If the caravan is well loaded 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

Sarah Orme reviewed a Honda Stream 2.0:

"Lovely big family car with loads of space and can fit seven in (but only with a picnic!). I have had no problems towing at all seems very stable outfit and nothing to scare this lady driver! Only concerns are the low hitch weight of, I think, 50kg. I try to load everything over the axle and only have small gas bottles. Also, trying to get off muddy pitches isn't the easiest - we have had to push sometimes. This has made me consider a CR-V instead. I can see very little through the caravan, but I just use mirrors. It is a lovely car to drive! Bit thirsty though - direct steering and a lively engine."
