Tow Bar for the Hyundai i40 - Buying Guide

If you want to retrofit your Hyundai i40 with a tow bar, you first face an important decision: Which type of tow bar best suits your needs? In our shop, we offer tow bars specifically developed for the Hyundai i40 station wagon, which are characterized by original quality, a precise fit, and tested safety. Below, you’ll learn what matters most when making your selection.

Detachable Tow Bar for the Hyundai i40 CW

The detachable tow bar is the most popular option for the Hyundai i40 CW. The key advantage: When not in use, the ball head can be removed without tools. This keeps the vehicle’s appearance unchanged and does not compromise aerodynamics. Additionally, the Hyundai i40 removable tow bar features a fold-away power outlet holder that is neatly stowed away when the ball head is removed.

Features of the removable i40 tow bar:

• Removable system - easy installation and removal without tools
• Fold-away power outlet holder for a clean look
• LED compatibility - automatic detection of LED and conventional lighting
• Perfect fit for Hyundai i40 VF CW (from 02/2015) and VF CW (09/2011–01/2015)

Rigid tow bar – the robust alternative

For vehicle owners who use their tow bar on a permanent basis, a rigid tow bar offers a solid solution. It is permanently attached to the vehicle and features a particularly robust construction. This option is especially suitable if you regularly transport trailers, bike racks, or RVs.

This eliminates the need for additional adapters - and you benefit from a flawless lighting system on both the towing vehicle and the trailer.

Protective cap with Hyundai branding
