The Mazda CX-7 2.2 CiTD with a Bailey Ranger 550 with an actual weight of 1278 kg is in general a good match and suitable for all journeys on all kinds of roads.

The motor preformance of the Mazda is in general very 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 very good.

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, you will need a B+E (or B96) driving license.
  • Weight ratio between the laden caravan and the loaded car is 61%. Common in the UK: the weight ratio between the laden caravan and the kerbweight of the car is 68%.
  • The chance of snaking is small even at higher speeds.
  • Recommended noseweight is 75 kg.
  • Stability and safety score to compare is 219 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

JEN reviewed a Mazda CX-7 2.2 CiTD:

"This car never misses a beat, tows with ease and is reliable to boot, shame they have stopped selling this vehicle in uk as it has all the toys and great spec. Only annoyance is no parking sensor just parking camera and slightly higher priced parts (although doesn't ofter need any)"
