3 Answers
2021 Volkswagen Bora body dimensions are 4523mm in length, 1775mm in width, and 1467mm in height, as per official data. The length of the Bora refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane, touching the foremost and rearmost protruding points of the vehicle. The width refers to the distance between two parallel planes touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding points on either side of the vehicle, parallel to the longitudinal symmetry plane. The height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and its supporting plane. The 2021 Bora is equipped with the latest generation EA211 series all-aluminum engines, offering two power options: 1.5L and 1.4TSI, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, or 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission. National regulations stipulate relevant standards for vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89", the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is designed to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking in adjacent lanes. This means that, according to national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking to prevent accidents or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.
The 2021 Bora has body dimensions of 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, 1473mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2688mm. These dimensions are standard for a compact car, making it easy to park in the city and not too difficult to maneuver. The trunk space is about 560 liters, which is more than enough for a large suitcase. The rear legroom is quite spacious, and even taller passengers won't feel cramped. The slightly longer wheelbase provides more stability at high speeds, reducing the sensation of swaying. The design includes a slightly lowered body to reduce wind resistance and improve fuel efficiency, making it suitable for daily commuting and weekend trips. Compared to the previous generation, the overall height has increased slightly, improving entry and exit convenience.
I used to drive a 2021 Volkswagen Bora, which has a body size of approximately 4.66 meters in length, 1.81 meters in width, 1.47 meters in height, and a wheelbase of 2.68 meters. It doesn't take up too much space when parking, handles easily with a small turning radius, and is no problem for weaving through city traffic. The interior space is well utilized, and even with three people in the back seat, it doesn't feel cramped. The increased headroom makes getting in and out of the car smoother. The trunk is designed reasonably, making it especially convenient for loading luggage. The widened body provides more stability when driving, giving confidence when changing lanes on the highway. The adjusted height reduces wind noise, making long-distance driving much more comfortable.
