The new white paint for the Bora is called 'Polar White.' The white paint on the new Bora is not metallic. Metallic paint contains additives such as carbon fluoride, copper, titanium, and aluminum, which enhance the hardness, wear resistance, scratch resistance, and vibrancy of the paint, making the car's color more attractive and durable. However, these additives can cause the white paint to appear less pure and exhibit color variations under different lighting conditions. Exterior dimensions: The car measures 4663mm in length, 1815mm in width, and 1462mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The front grille seamlessly integrates with the headlights on both sides, while the iconic fog lamps enhance the vehicle's recognizability. The sharp character line on the side of the body runs through the door handles and extends to the rear, complemented by the shark fin antenna on the roof, giving the car a stronger sporty appeal. Powertrain: The car delivers a maximum horsepower of 116 and a peak torque of 200N.m, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, achieving a top speed of 190 kilometers per hour.

Speaking of my Volkswagen Bora, the white color is called "Iceland White", with the official code LY9M, which sounds quite sophisticated. I've been driving this car for over a year, and the color looks exceptionally pure under sunlight, reminiscent of Nordic glaciers. After a wash, it shines brilliantly, giving a real sense of pride. However, regular maintenance is essential, as dust can make it look dirty quickly. I recommend waxing it monthly to prevent the paint from yellowing. Always use professional car wash solutions instead of ordinary soap, as the latter can dull the shine. Additionally, I chose white because it doesn’t get as hot in summer and makes the car appear more spacious. Many in the car owners' group complain about the difficulty of maintaining other colors, but with proper care, "Iceland White" won’t show discoloration for at least five years. All in all, this color is quite practical and always lifts my mood when I’m out driving.

The white variant of the Volkswagen Bora is typically designated as "Candy White", with the color code LY9M or similar, which is a standard factory option. When dealing with new cars at the dealership, many customers choose it because it's timeless and holds its value well, making it extremely popular. The color itself has a warm undertone, appearing slightly pearlescent in daylight and maintaining its brightness under artificial light at night. It's recommended that owners apply a protective coating upon purchase to extend its longevity. Opting for white can also save some fuel consumption since it reflects sunlight and doesn't absorb heat. For those seeking more individuality, check if the latest models offer a tinted version, such as those with an eco-friendly coating for enhanced durability. In short, choosing this color requires considering long-term maintenance—don't just focus on aesthetics.

What is the function of a car sunroof?

The function of a car sunroof: Enhances the ventilation inside the vehicle, allowing for rapid cooling and better air renewal. It utilizes the superior principle of negative pressure ventilation to filter the air inside the car, thereby protecting the health of the driver and passengers. Car sunroofs can be broadly categorized into: sliding-out type, built-in type, built-in flip-up type, panoramic type, and curtain type. The car sunroof changes the traditional form of ventilation; when wind blows in, it creates an airflow that draws out the stale air inside the car. When the car is moving at high speed, air flows rapidly around the vehicle. Opening the sunroof creates a negative pressure zone outside the car, and due to the difference in air pressure inside and outside the car, the stale air inside is drawn out, achieving the purpose of ventilation.

What is the impact of adding a tailpipe tip on a car?

Adding a tailpipe tip has no impact on a car. Most tailpipe tips are made of stainless steel or galvanized materials, with stainless steel being the more popular choice due to its mirror-smooth finish and excellent craftsmanship. Galvanized tailpipe tips, on the other hand, have a layer of zinc coating over iron, which tends to peel off over time. Besides preventing deformation of the car's exhaust pipe, a tailpipe tip also provides turbocharging and spoiler effects. It can also reduce the noise emitted by the exhaust pipe to some extent, making the sound slightly softer and more pleasant. Primarily, a tailpipe tip is used for decoration, so it poses no significant harm to the vehicle.

Why Does the Bora Make Noise When Reversing?

The reasons why the Bora makes noise when reversing include the following: 1. Shock absorber failure: When the car's shock absorber fails, the car will also make noise when turning or passing through bumpy roads. In this case, the car shock absorber needs to be replaced at a repair shop or 4S store. 2. Transmission failure: If the car's transmission fails, such as damage to the reverse gear, it will also produce noise due to friction. In this case, the transmission needs to be disassembled to inspect and replace the gears. 3. Brake pad failure: Car brake pad failure causing vehicle noise is a common reason. Brake pad failures include improper installation of the brake pads, severe wear of the brake pads, or foreign objects mixed in the brake pads and calipers. The specific situation requires removing the car tires to inspect the brake pads before repair, and if necessary, directly replacing the brake pads.
