Where is the towing hook on the Wuling Hongguang?

[DominicLynn]

On the chassis, there is a hole on the beams on both sides of the chassis, which is where the towing hook is located, but only older models of the Wuling Hongguang have it. Here is some related information: 1. Towing hook: The towing hook, also known as a tow ball, can be used to tow small trailers or towable caravans after installation. It can also be paired with rear-mounted bicycle racks or luggage carriers, which can increase the vehicle's cargo space. This is very convenient for loading luggage during road trips or transporting large items. 2. Precautions: For additional towing hooks, it is important to clarify whether they are legally compliant to avoid fines.

I've been driving the Wuling Hongguang for many years. The tow hook is located right below the center of the front bumper. You'll need to squat down to see it, usually there's a small plastic cover. Lift it and you'll find the metal hook. When I first needed to tow, I couldn't find it until a friend showed me the method. Remember it's about 20 cm below the license plate, don't blindly feel around the rear because the rear bumper doesn't have preset hook points - it's only suitable for front-wheel towing. Use a screwdriver to gently pry open the cover, but don't use too much force to avoid damaging the clips. When towing, make sure to tighten the chains and check that the hook isn't rusty, otherwise it might slip. Check it whenever you wash your car to prevent mud and water from clogging it. Always operate in a safe area, never attempt this on the highway as it's prone to accidents. When parking, try not to get too close to walls to avoid damaging the hook. Overall, the Wuling Hongguang's tow hook design is practical and not hard to find, but it does require some patience.

As someone who frequently works on cars, I recommend that the Wuling Hongguang tow hook is located directly below the front bumper, near the center grille, usually covered by a round or square panel. Before operation, turn off the engine, crouch down, use a flashlight to illuminate the area, and gently pry open the panel with a screwdriver—avoid pulling forcefully. The hook is typically threaded; use a wrench to tighten the tow rope securely before towing. In special cases involving rear-wheel drive, a professional tow frame may be required, but the factory design only includes a front hook. Regular maintenance involves cleaning dust and checking bolt tightness to prevent loosening or detachment during towing, which could cause accidents. Keep towing speed slow, not exceeding 40 km/h, to avoid excessive force on the hook leading to breakage. Don’t forget to place safety warning signs and ensure no one is nearby. I’ve practiced this procedure multiple times—the key lies in attentiveness and prioritizing safety.

When driving the Wuling Hongguang for towing goods, the towing hook is quite noticeable under the middle of the front bumper. If you look down and forward, you'll see a small cover at the bottom of the bumper. Prying it open reveals the hook location. It's usually fixed to the frame beam, so don't look further back as there's no hook point there. It's best to have good lighting and a stable squatting position when searching. The manual also outlines the steps, which are simple to understand. Be gentle during operation to avoid damaging the paint, and remember to close the cover after towing to prevent dirt accumulation. The design is reasonable, making it easy even for beginners to master.
