Which Towbar is best for my Kia Sorento?
The fixed flange towbar is a strong and versatile towing solution, featuring a flat metal plate where the towball is securely bolted in place. This setup allows for the fitting of accessories such as a bumper protector plate between the flange and towball. Known for its durability and practicality, it’s ideal for towing trailers and caravans. For those using ALKO stabilisers, a specific ALKO-compatible towball is required. As the towball is permanently fitted, it remains visible at all times and may occasionally interfere with parking sensors on certain vehicles.
The fixed swan neck towbar provides a more compact and stylish alternative to the flange design. Formed as a single curved piece, it reduces the chance of triggering parking sensors. Fully compatible with ALKO stabilisers, it’s a popular choice among caravan owners who value both function and aesthetics.
he detachable swan neck towbar combines the same elegant appearance and reliable towing capacity as the fixed version but adds greater convenience. The neck section can be easily detached when not needed, keeping the vehicle’s clean look intact and preventing interference with parking sensors. This makes it an ideal option for drivers who want a discreet, easy-to-remove towing solution that offers the same safety, strength, and performance as a permanent towbar.
Will it need a bumper cut?
The towbars for the new Kia Sorento require a non-visible cut to the underside of the bumper. This keeps the impact on the vehicle’s appearance to a minimum and allows a detachable towbar to be almost invisible with the neck detached.
