The folding of the Borgward BX5's rearview mirrors can be controlled via the buttons on the driver's side door. When passing on narrow roads, the mirrors can be electrically folded to avoid scratches. Additionally, the mirrors feature a heating and defogging function. Rearview mirrors are tools that allow the driver to directly obtain external information about the rear, sides, and lower parts of the car while seated in the driver's seat. Additional information: 1. The Borgward BX5 is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The car reaches its maximum torque at 1750-4000 rpm. In terms of the transmission system, the car is paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission, offering excellent power performance that fully meets the daily driving needs of the car. 2. The 1.4T turbocharged engine in the Borgward BX5 features a lightweight design with high performance, high comfort, low fuel consumption, and low emissions. Its direct fuel injection technology and lightweight mechanical control turbocharging ensure outstanding power performance, fully satisfying the power requirements for both starting and high-speed overtaking.
I remember when I first drove the Borgward BX5, the rearview mirror adjustment knob was right on the door panel by the driver's seat, easily within reach. Like many cars, there's a small plastic dial near the door handle—just a gentle twist adjusts the left and right mirrors. Once I got used to it, I found it quite handy; for instance, when parked roadside needing a slight angle tweak, it takes mere seconds. Just be careful not to force it during winter frost to prevent brittle plastic cracks. After car washes, water spots might affect operation, so drying it with a cloth ensures smoother handling. By the way, regularly check the knob's flexibility to avoid jamming—it’s all about safer driving. Veteran drivers know such placement is key design.
