Where is the tow hook on the 2021 Bora?
3 Answers
The tow hook on the 2021 Bora is located in the trunk. Additional information is as follows: 1. Product Concept: The Bora sedan evokes an irresistible urge to drive it the moment you see it. Like other Volkswagen models from Germany, the 'Bora' is named after the wind—specifically, the refreshing breeze of the Adriatic Sea. In China, FAW-Volkswagen has given it a culturally resonant name—Bora. It is a full-size sedan under the Volkswagen brand, the latest masterpiece of the A-class platform, a product synchronized with international standards, and a leader in modern car performance and quality. 2. Vehicle Overview: After the launch of the 2011 Bora, the 2010 model was renamed the Bora Classic. While the 2011 Bora retains the name, it bears little resemblance to the 2010 Bora Classic. The 2011 Bora is built on Volkswagen's well-established PQ34 platform, the same platform used for Shanghai Volkswagen's new A-class sedan, the Lavida. Although the 2011 Bora continues to use the PQ34 platform, its vehicle control system, bus system, and other components adopt the latest PQ35 platform technology, which Volkswagen refers to as PQ34L. This integration allows many advanced features of the PQ35 platform to be implemented in the 2011 Bora, providing drivers with enhanced driving pleasure and convenience.
I've been driving the 2021 Bora for over two years, and the rear tow hook location on this car is easily overlooked. It's right below the rear bumper, usually covered by a small plastic cap or marked with an indicator. After removing the cap, you'll find a threaded hole for installing the tow hook accessory. The Bora's design prioritizes aesthetics and safety, so the hook point is discreetly placed to prevent collision damage. Remember to always replace the cap after use to avoid dirt and water accumulation that could cause rust. If you frequently drive long distances or in rainy areas, I recommend cleaning and inspecting it quarterly for durability. If you can't locate it, don't worry – the owner's manual has detailed illustrated instructions. Such thoughtful small details make the car very user-friendly for beginners.
As a new owner of the 2021 Bora, I still remember the clumsiness when I first searched for the tow hook. It's located at the lower right corner of the rear bumper. If you crouch down and look carefully, you'll notice a small indentation or cover. Gently pry open the cover to reveal a threaded hole specifically designed for hook installation. The salesperson reminded me during purchase that the manual contains a 3D location diagram, which saved me trouble. I suggest you check the manual too. When towing, always secure the hook first before starting to avoid accidents caused by looseness. My experience is to always keep the cover closed to prevent dust, and apply more lubricant during winter for protection. These small designs make daily car use more reassuring. Don't worry if you're a beginner – you'll get familiar with practice.
