Where is the towing hook located on the MG6?
2 Answers
The installation position of the towing hook is usually found under the rear bumper of the car, covered by a square or round cover. Here is some relevant information: 1. Towing hook: It is used to connect vehicles during towing. There are generally two types of towing hooks: one is located at the front of the vehicle, designed for when the vehicle breaks down, making it easier for the broken-down vehicle to be towed by a rescue vehicle. 2. Rear: The other type is located at the rear, typically equipped on vehicles with larger torque such as SUVs, trucks, and pickups, used for towing other vehicles. This means these vehicles can serve as 'rescue vehicles.'
I used to drive an MG6, and the rear tow hook location was quite straightforward—right in the center under the rear bumper. There’s usually a round plastic cover near the chassis that you can easily pry open to reveal the tow hook mounting point. I once had to use it myself on the highway when my car broke down and needed towing with a rope. Remember to shift the car into neutral and engage the handbrake for safety. If you can’t locate it, check the manual for reference images or feel along the bottom of the bumper—most cars are designed this way. Don’t forget to clean that area during car washes to prevent dust buildup from making it hard to open. When using the tow hook, avoid pulling anything too heavy to prevent structural damage. The MG6’s design is quite practical, with an easily accessible spot. I’d recommend new owners keep a small toolkit handy for emergencies. Familiarizing yourself with the location helps with routine maintenance and saves a trip to the repair shop.
