What is the body weight of the Volkswagen Bora?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Bora has a body weight of 1315kg, with body dimensions of: length 4663mm, width 1815mm, height 1462mm, wheelbase 2688mm, fuel tank capacity 50l, and trunk capacity 506l. It belongs to the compact car category. The Volkswagen Bora is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 85kW at 5000rpm, and a maximum torque of 200Nm. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, featuring McPherson strut front suspension and torsion beam rear suspension.
I remember the body weight of the Volkswagen Bora is generally around 1,250 to 1,350 kilograms, depending on the year and configuration. For example, manual transmission models might be slightly lighter, while automatic ones are heavier. I drive a Bora myself, and I feel this weight provides good stability—it doesn’t feel floaty at high speeds, and the handling is smooth. However, the heavier weight does mean slightly higher fuel consumption, averaging around 6 to 7 liters per 100 kilometers, which doesn’t really impact daily budgeting. The heavier body also has advantages, like a solid chassis that absorbs bumps well over speed bumps, but it’s important to pay extra attention to tire wear and keep up with regular maintenance. I recommend owners check their vehicle manual or consult a 4S dealership for the latest data to avoid misjudgment.
