What is the ground clearance of the Bora?
2 Answers
The ground clearance of the Bora is 122mm. This parameter refers to the ground clearance when the vehicle is fully loaded. When unloaded, the ground clearance is certainly higher than 122mm. It is sufficient for urban road conditions. The minimum ground clearance for family sedans generally ranges from 110mm to 150mm. The higher the ground clearance, the better the sedan's off-road capability, but stability on highways will be compromised. The Bora's body dimensions are 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1462mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The car's engine delivers a maximum power of 85kw and a maximum torque of 200nm.
The ground clearance of the Bora typically ranges between 140 to 150 millimeters, and I recall the official data is around 145 mm, which is quite suitable for daily driving. From my five-year experience with this car, commuting in the city over speed bumps is generally fine as long as you drive slowly. However, on rural bumpy roads, the undercarriage sometimes scrapes, and when fully loaded, the clearance can drop to around 130 mm. It's advisable to regularly check tire wear and pressure, as new tires can help maintain slightly higher clearance. Compared to other sedans, like the Honda Civic with 140 mm, the Bora is slightly higher, balancing comfort and fuel efficiency. After rain, be cautious when driving through water—keep the speed slow to avoid water intake. Proper maintenance of the undercarriage, ensuring no debris gets stuck, can extend its lifespan.
