Where is the tow hook located on the Changan Eado?

The Changan Eado only has a tow hook at the front, located below the front grille. Here is some additional information: 1. Tow Hook: Used to connect vehicles during towing. There are generally two types: one is located at the front of the vehicle, making it convenient for a broken-down vehicle to be towed by a rescue vehicle; the other is located at the rear, typically found on SUVs, trucks, pickups, and other vehicles with higher torque, used for towing other vehicles. This means these vehicles can serve as "rescue vehicles." 2. Precautions: When installing the tow hook, press around the edges of the tow hook cover repeatedly to find an angle to open it. If this doesn’t work, you can use a tool to assist in prying it open for installation. After towing, reinstall the tow hook cover for future use.
When I drove the Eado before, I specifically researched this. The tow hook is mainly hidden under the small square cover at the lower right or left corner of the front bumper. You need to pry open the cover with a key tip to see it. Last time when my friend's car got stuck in snow, we lifted the rubber cover under the driver's seat and found the threaded tow ring inside. Note that some newer models have removed the rear tow hook, so check your car's model year. Remember to secure the tow rope properly—don't pull at an angle to avoid damaging the chassis, and it's best to operate on hard ground. Also, when being towed, remember to shift to N (neutral), release the handbrake, and turn off ESP, otherwise the wheels may lock up.
