I've been towing our twin axle luna quasar(1205kg mro - 1450 kg mtpla) for a few years now with our volvo xc90,
now its time to change our motor as its nearly ten years old and my better half needs something newer and more practical for work.
Question is does anyone have any experiance of a similer size twin axle van towed by a saloon car?
the car she really would like is 2016 jaguar xe
a quick searce reavales the max tow weight at 1800kg
and Kerb weight: 1,611 to 1,690 kg
thank you
Gareth

Hello Gareth,

The number of axles a caravan has is not the important factor, its principally the weight, and lust looking at the figures you have supplied, it looks like the XE should mange the weight of caravan you have.

Thanks wooden top I’ve tried talking her into a Passat but as I got to choose the xc90 now it’s her tern and as she’s going to be using it the most for work (new Job up and down the country) she’s got her heart set on the baby jag

Noah, a friend of mine who has a caravan maintenance business has a diesel Xe and he says it is a lovely tow car. So go for it.

On paper it looks a good match, so if it is what she wants there are plenty of bonus points for getting it for her. Hope you like it though
