What is the Volkswagen Bora called?

Volkswagen Bora is the FAW-Volkswagen New Bora. More information about the New Bora is as follows: Design Style: The New Bora adopts Volkswagen's family design style, creating a simple and robust characteristic with excellent handling and comfort. After adopting the MQB platform, the larger body dimensions make the new car appear more spacious and elegant. The redesigned headlight clusters and body lines highlight the New Bora's personality more straightforwardly. The layered design of the front face and rear end is more pronounced, creating a flat visual effect. Body Parameters: The body dimensions are 4663/1815/1462mm (length/width/height), with a wheelbase of 2688mm. The high-end model of the New Bora is equipped with Volkswagen's EA211-1.4T high-power engine, with a maximum power of 110kW and a peak torque of 250N-m, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Additionally, the 1.5L naturally aspirated engine will continue to be used, matched with a 5MT/6AT transmission.

I've driven a Bora for seven years. This car is called 'Bao Lai' domestically, which is a direct transliteration of its English name Bora. I remember when I first bought the car, my neighbor asked what the name meant. I said it's a lucky sign meaning 'the arrival of a baby'. This car is particularly suitable for small families—the trunk can fit a stroller, and the urban fuel consumption is around 7 liters. In the Volkswagen lineup, the Bora and Sagitar are often compared. Actually, the Bora is more affordably priced, with oil changes costing just over 300 yuan, making it quite economical for family commuting.

I remember in 2001 when Volkswagen introduced the fourth-generation Jetta for domestic production in China, naming it Bora as the country's first 'driver's car'. The 1.8T turbo version was particularly popular back then - my uncle drove his for 180,000 kilometers before changing cars. The new model now uses the MQB platform with wheelbase extended to 2688mm, finally eliminating knee room issues in the rear seats. As for drawbacks, road noise is indeed noticeable, especially on highways where you need to turn up the music to mask it. But for a German car priced just over 100,000 yuan, we can't expect too much.

The name 'Bora' sounds so auspicious! When I helped my cousin choose a car before, I researched it. The 1.5L naturally aspirated version may only have 113 horsepower, which isn't particularly powerful, but it pairs really smoothly with the Aisin 6AT. Once, while helping to replace the central control screen, I discovered cruise control buttons hidden under the steering wheel—no need for additional installations to activate them. The most practical feature is definitely the Carlife function, making navigation super convenient for Android users. Although it has a torsion beam rear suspension, it handles speed bumps more steadily than Japanese cars.

When I first got my driver's license, I rented a Bora to practice. The steering wheel was extremely light and very friendly for beginners. If you check the configuration sheet, you'll notice that models above the Comfort version come with heated rearview mirrors, which are super practical in rainy weather. Here's a fun fact: dealerships in Northeast China offer a -35°C antifreeze windshield washer fluid package, which is a must for winter driving. As for drawbacks, the auto start-stop function can't be permanently turned off; you have to manually disable it every time you start the car. I'd recommend choosing white paint—it's 20% safer than black at night.
