Advice on what towbar is best for you

Factors to consider when choosing a towbar

Utilisation and Frequency:

Using frequency: A fixed towbar could be more handy if you tow regularly. Perhaps a detachable or retractable towbar would be better for sporadic use.
Consider the loads you will be towing—trailers, caravans, bike racks, etc. Various loads can have particular needs.

Towing capacity:

To be sure the tow bar can carry the loads you intend to tow, find the maximum towing capability of your vehicle.
Make that the weight rating of the towbar either equals or surpasses the maximum towing capacity of your car.

Tow bar types

Fixed Tow bars:

Fixed to the car for lifetime. Ideal for regular towing, it may compromise the appearance of the car and cause sensors to be blocked.

Detachable Tow bars

When not in use, detachable towbars can be removed. These look better and don’t interfere with parking sensors.

Retractable Tow bars

When not in use, retractable towbars can be folded away or hidden, therefore combining the simplicity of fixed ones with the convenience of detachable ones.

Vehicle Make and Model: Manufacturer Guidelines

To find the kinds of towbars fit for your car, consult the specifications of the vehicle manufacturer. There are certain vehicles with particular towbar needs.
