2 Answers
Buick Excelle rear towing hook is located at the lower left corner of the rear bumper. The era connotation of Buick Excelle: Perfectly interprets the innate spirited temperament, sharp and tough lines, and driving experience; it also reflects the "talent and wisdom" and the "daring to think and act, decisive and straightforward work style" of the new generation of striving youth. Power configuration of Buick Excelle: Equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine, it can unleash a maximum power of 135kW, with a power-to-displacement ratio of 84.4kW/L, featuring super torque, and continuously delivers a maximum torque of 235Nm within an ultra-wide speed range of 1980-5400rpm.
The Buick Excelle's rear tow hook is generally located directly under the rear bumper, right in the middle of the rear end. I can tell you that if you crouch down and look from behind the car, there's a small plastic cover on the bumper, usually black or gray in color. You can simply pry it open with your hands or gently push it aside with a small tool to reveal the threaded hole inside. You'll need to screw in a dedicated tow eye or hook and then attach the tow rope. This design helps protect the car body from scratches and makes emergency towing easier. However, remember to ensure the car is turned off, in Park (P) gear, and the handbrake is engaged before use. Avoid doing this on a slope to prevent the car from sliding. I've encountered situations where friends couldn't find the right spot, resulting in the tow hook getting stuck. I recommend keeping a small wrench handy or referring to the manual's diagram. If the cover is missing or blocked, try spraying some cleaner first. If that doesn't work, you might need to visit a 4S shop to check if the bumper's interior is deformed or damaged. Avoid forcing it to prevent damage to the chassis structure.
