New rule limits 100 km/h for trailers and caravans
Original source: Carup.se

The Swedish government has proposed a Tempo-100 reform to allow towing caravans and trailers at 100 km/h, but with a restriction: the trailer's total weight must not exceed 0.8 times the car's kerb weight. Sweden has 290,000 caravans and 1.1 million registered trailers, currently limited to 80 km/h. The Caravan Industry Association (HRF) says the 0.8 rule would exclude most standard caravans weighing 1500–2000 kg and demands the proposal be withdrawn. According to HRF calculations, many common tow cars could only handle caravans around 1300–1500 kg.
