Where is the towing hook located at the rear of the MG6?

There is a towing hook on the bumper, which is covered by a cap. Simply open the cap to use it. After locating the towing hook position on the vehicle: The owner can use a key, screwdriver, or similar tool to pry open the plastic cover, being careful not to scratch the car paint. Once the plastic cover is removed, find a metal rod in the trunk that has a ring on one end and a screw on the other. Then, install this metal rod into the small hole at the front of the vehicle to proceed with towing. Towing precautions: The tow rope should generally be a dedicated tow rope made of materials like cloth straps or steel wire, with a length of 3-10 meters. If the rear vehicle loses steering capability, a metal tow bar about 1.8 meters long should be used to ensure the stability of the rear vehicle during towing.
I remember once when I was out driving for fun, my MG6 got stuck in mud and needed towing, so I researched this. The rear tow hook is hidden under the rear bumper and isn't particularly obvious. If you crouch down and look closely at the rear skirt, you'll find a small square plastic cover on the left or right side, about the size of a matchbox. Gently pry the cover open with your key at the edge to reveal a threaded socket. The round threaded tow hook is usually stored in the tool bag near the spare tire well—just screw it in tightly. When towing, make sure to use a reliable tow rope, and the towing vehicle should start slowly to avoid sudden jerks that might damage the bumper clips, which can cost a few hundred bucks to replace. Also, try to tow on flat roads and avoid steep slopes.
