Does the Changan Unit have a rear tow hook?
2 Answers
Changan Unit has a rear tow hook. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Introduction: The Changan Unit is a new SUV model with excellent appearance, configuration, and technology. It is equipped with a 1.5T new Blue Whale version engine, providing sufficient power. The front tow hook is located under the cover plate in front of the co-driver's side grille, which can be pried open to find the tow hook, and the rear is the same. 2. Additional information: Under normal circumstances, the vehicle can rely on its own engine power output for driving. The tow rope should generally be a dedicated tow rope made of materials such as cloth or steel wire, 3-10 meters long, capable of withstanding at least 2 tons of weight, which helps in smooth towing.
As someone who frequently tinkers with cars, I'm quite familiar with the Changan UNI-T series. The UNI-T typically doesn't come with a rear tow hook from the factory, mainly because its design is positioned as a city SUV, prioritizing a sporty appearance and low wind resistance. For example, the UNI-T doesn't have a standard hook position reserved at the rear—this is the manufacturer's strategy to reduce unnecessary components and enhance aesthetics. If you occasionally need to tow something, checking the manual will reveal a towing interface at the bottom of the trunk, which can be used temporarily for emergency towing with a tow rope. However, don't expect it to handle heavy loads to avoid damaging the chassis. It's possible to retrofit a tow hook afterward, but you should consult a professional shop to ensure the structure matches and to avoid warranty issues. I recommend avoiding towing tasks in daily driving—the UNI-T's strengths lie in fuel efficiency and smart technology, not hauling capacity. It's safest to clarify all details when purchasing the car.
