2021 Bora's rearview mirrors can fold automatically. Here is the relevant introduction about Bora: 1. Product features: 7 major upgrades + 5 additional configurations comprehensively enhance riding comfort. The 2011 Bora 1.4T model not only brings consumers a comprehensive improvement in driving pleasure in terms of power and handling but also achieves a brand-new improvement in riding comfort through comprehensive upgrades in interior and exterior design and configurations. It is reported that the 2011 Bora 1.4T model features 7 major upgrades and 5 additional configurations, including improvements such as a frameless wiper, rear window antenna, split front grille, new wood grain interior trim, chrome package, aluminum brushed interior trim, and a new design leather steering wheel, as well as new additions like the upper gray and lower black interior option, USB port, Aux-in audio interface, secondary door unlocking function, and a driver-side sun visor vanity mirror. 2. Appearance introduction: The 2011 Bora's wheelbase is 97mm longer than the old model, reaching 2610mm, which is close to the wheelbase of many B-segment cars. This significantly increases the interior space of the 2011 Bora, with almost all the increased wheelbase used to improve the rear seating space, greatly enhancing the rear passengers' comfort.
I've driven this car for a while. Whether the 2021 Bora's mirrors auto-fold depends on the trim. Base models may only have manual folding—you'll need to flip them yourself when parking. Mid/high trims or models with key fob packages likely feature power folding that activates with lock button presses, super handy for tight parking spots to prevent scrapes. As someone who frequently drives in urban areas, I find this feature extremely practical—just don't expect it as standard. Always check the official configurator or confirm with dealership staff before buying to avoid surprises. Most trims do include heated mirrors though, a lifesaver in rainy conditions—I'd prioritize this option package. Overall, spending extra for higher trims pays off, as small details make or break the ownership experience.
Having been in this trade for over a decade, I've repaired many 2021 Bora models. The auto-folding feature for side mirrors depends on the vehicle's trim level: entry-level models usually don't have this function, requiring manual folding; comfort trims and above may come with power folding, which can be set to automatically close. During repairs, I often see circuit issues affecting folding stability, so I advise owners to avoid unauthorized modifications. The feature itself is useful—it saves hassle when parking and prevents collisions, but its practicality falls short compared to heated mirrors for dealing with fog safely. Veteran drivers know that reliability and durability trump fancy features—regular cleaning and maintenance of side mirrors should be the priority.
