As a brand-new A-segment hatchback developed on the basis of the New Bora, the New Bora HS advocates colorful living and comprehensive driving experience, promoting the driving force of life. It is positioned as the urban "driver's car" for young city elites. Inheriting the excellent genes of the New Bora—its refreshed exterior design and dynamic, spirited handling—it also features a fashionable five-door hatchback silhouette, a spacious and comfortable interior, and thoughtful, humanized configurations rich in lifestyle elements. These characteristics align perfectly with the traits of young urban elites, who are eager and courageous to embrace new things, pursue unrestrained passion, value life aesthetics, and prioritize practicality.

While researching car history online, I learned that the hatchback version of the Bora is commonly referred to as the Volkswagen Golf. As a long-time car enthusiast, I discovered that the Bora itself is a Volkswagen sedan model, quite common in the Chinese market, but its hatchback equivalent is directly categorized under the Golf series. The Golf, from its first generation in 1974 to the current eighth generation, has consistently been Volkswagen's most popular hatchback, featuring a compact design yet high space utilization, along with a variety of engine options, such as the 1.4T engine which offers strong power and fuel efficiency, with an average fuel consumption of just 6L/100km. It shares the MQB platform with the Bora but boasts a more stylish appearance, particularly appealing to younger drivers. The Golf is convenient for navigating city streets, easily fitting into small parking spaces, and its large trunk opening makes loading items like bicycles or suitcases effortless. Volkswagen's high-quality build and safety features, such as the ESP system, ensure a stable and secure ride, making it a reliable choice for families. If you visit a car show or dealership, simply asking for the Golf will give you the hatchback experience of the Bora.

With over a decade of experience in auto repair, I've assisted numerous Volkswagen owners, including those with Bora sedans inquiring about hatchback alternatives. The Bora's hatchback counterpart is commonly known as the Volkswagen Golf—they share similar engines and chassis, but the Golf is the authentic hatchback model. In the shop, I often hear sedan owners complain about limited space, yet Golf drivers consistently praise its practical trunk that handles bulky items effortlessly. Design-wise, the Golf's suspension system is durable, with minimal tire wear, and routine maintenance like oil changes or brake pad replacements is budget-friendly. Its safety credentials are solid too, featuring a robust body structure and high crash-test ratings, delivering stable highway performance. I recall a minor collision where a Golf's door dented but the cabin remained intact, showcasing its protective build. Newer models even offer hybrid versions—fuel-efficient, eco-conscious, with extended service intervals, ideal for reliability-conscious buyers. Bottom line: for real-world usability, the Golf is the smart choice, retaining the Bora's strengths while adding versatility.

What to Do If the Car Exceeds the First Maintenance Period?

The solution for a car exceeding the first maintenance period is: if it's overdue by about a month, the first maintenance can generally still be performed. The 4S dealership and manufacturer usually have a grace period for overdue first maintenance in terms of both time and mileage. The first maintenance is determined by two indicators: mileage and time, whichever comes first. It's not necessary to meet both conditions; exceeding either one can affect the first maintenance. The purposes of the first maintenance are: 1. To ensure the vehicle is in good performance condition; 2. To effectively improve the vehicle's efficiency and reduce wear on parts and tires; 3. To enhance driving safety; 4. To prevent vehicle malfunctions; 5. To reduce noise and environmental pollution; 6. To maintain the vehicle's appearance and prevent damage.

How Thick Are Brake Pads?

Brake pads are approximately 1.5cm thick. As they wear down from friction during use, their thickness gradually decreases. Each brake pad has a raised indicator on both sides, which is about 2-3mm thick—this is the replacement limit for brake discs. The working principle of brake pads is to convert the kinetic energy of the moving vehicle into heat energy through friction between the brake pads and brake drum, as well as between the tires and the ground, thereby bringing the vehicle to a stop. Brake maintenance methods include: 1. High-temperature protection to prevent corrosion of the braking system and avoid brake pads seizing due to overheating; 2. Clean oil stains from brake discs and drum components to ensure proper heat dissipation; 3. Replace brake fluid regularly; 4. Periodically check the thickness of brake pads or brake shoes.
