2 Answers
Here are the differences between the 2019 and 2020 Volkswagen Bora models: 1. Exterior: The appearance differences between the 2019 and 2020 Bora models are minimal. The 2020 Bora continues with Volkswagen's family-style design, featuring a distinct front face with a horizontal grille design, a continuous air intake, and open-angle headlights. The Comfort trim and above come with lens-equipped headlights, while the 2019 model does not have lenses across all trims. 2. Rear: The 2020 Bora has a clean rear design with smoked taillights and a dual-exhaust chrome tailpipe design. 3. Features: The 2020 Bora Comfort and Elite trims are equipped with the MIB-G Standard Plus infotainment system and a rearview camera. The Premium trim features an 8-inch color touchscreen, along with Baidu CarLife/Apple CarPlay connectivity, MirrorLink smartphone mirroring, and touch-controlled air conditioning. Additionally, the 2020 model has two extra USB ports in the rear. 4. Powertrain: The 2020 Bora offers two engine options—1.5L and 1.4T—paired with either a 5-speed manual, 6-speed automatic, or 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. All variants comply with the China VI emission standards.
I think the most obvious difference between the 2020 Bora and the 2019 model is the exterior. The 2020 version has a more refined grille with a narrower chrome strip in the middle, giving it a more modern look. The headlights have also been upgraded to LED with a dot-matrix style daytime running light design, while the 2019 model still uses older halogen lights with less sharp corners. At the rear, the 2020 model adds some silver trim to the bumper, enhancing its sporty feel. The wheel design has also been updated, with the 17-inch version looking cleaner. This facelift leans towards a more youthful and visually striking design. If you're interested in comparing, just take a closer look at the details when parked—it not only helps in choosing a used car but also reminds you to be careful not to damage the newly designed parts when washing.
