Does the Bora have headlight washing function?
2 Answers
The Bora does not have a headlight washing function as it lacks a headlight cleaning device. Here are explanations about the headlight cleaning device: 1. The headlight cleaning device refers to a water outlet located below the headlights, which can clean dust and dirt from the headlights at any time. This feature is generally available in higher-end models. 2. When driving at night or on dimly lit roads, rain and dust can reduce the illumination of headlights by 90%, severely affecting the driver's visibility. This poses significant safety hazards. Currently, laws in many countries require the installation of headlight cleaning systems in vehicles.
I've been driving for many years and have owned several Volkswagen cars, including the Bora. From my experience, the headlight washer function is not standard on the Bora—it depends on the specific trim and year. For example, base models or older versions usually don't have it, but some higher trims like those with automatic headlight systems or certain limited editions might include it. The headlight washer sprays water in front of the car to clean the lights, which is crucial for nighttime safety, especially in rainy, snowy, or muddy conditions when blurred lights can lead to accidents. If your car doesn't have this feature, don't worry—you can manually wipe the lights with a wet cloth when parked, or install an aftermarket cleaning kit. In short, before buying a Bora, check the specifications or ask the salesperson to confirm.
