2 Answers
The body weight of the Bora car is 1315 kilograms. Relevant information about the Bora is as follows: 1. The Bora is a compact sedan produced by Volkswagen in Germany, belonging to the Jetta series. In addition to the sedan version, there is also a station wagon version. 2. The Bora features a square and angular exterior design with clean lines, a simple and practical interior, and is equipped with automatic rain-sensing wipers and an automatic air conditioning system. 3. In the European market, the Bora was designed as a competitive model targeting the BMW 3 Series, Audi A4, and Opel Vectra. 4. The Bora was introduced to China in 2001, with its market positioning in China as the "driver's car." On March 24, 2014, FAW-Volkswagen announced the official launch of the Bora Sportline model for sale.
I remember the body weight of the Bora varies quite a bit depending on the model configuration. Generally, the base version like the low-end manual transmission weighs around 1,200 kg, while the high-end automatic with a sunroof can exceed 1,300 kg. Why is it so heavy? Because the engine type matters—for example, a 1.5L engine is lighter, while a 1.4T turbo adds more weight, and the chassis and body steel materials also contribute to the heft. When buying a car, you should pay attention to this: a car that’s too light might feel unstable at high speeds due to wind resistance, while one that’s too heavy will consume more fuel. For family use, the Bora’s weight is quite balanced—stable handling without being too fuel-hungry. For exact figures, it’s best to check the manufacturer’s manual or official website to avoid misunderstandings. I think this number is very important since weight affects daily driving experience and maintenance costs, so don’t overlook it when choosing a car.
