Actual Weights

Performance

 

Weight

  • The towing limit of the Seat 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 65%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 74%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 70 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 205 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

Phil reviewed a Seat Altea Freetrack 2.0 TDI 4WD:

"I am very impressed with the Altea Freetrack. I have the 2.0 TDI 170 PS engine, and tow a Lunar Quasar 525. Tows well, I had the standard SEAT removable tow hitch and have had no problems with tow hitch height. Totally recommend the vehicle."
