Original tow bar with an automatic ball release system (manual/automatic mechanism, not electric) with catalog number OE MG/A04, designed for the electric MG 5 estate produced since 2021. Equipped with a precise and reliable 3-ball latch that ensures secure, stable locking of the ball, tool-free operation, and the highest level of safety during driving and towing. The unit allows convenient mounting of cargo trailers, caravans, and bicycle racks.
The OE part is made of high-strength structural steel resistant to dynamic loads, overloads, and material fatigue. Durable anti-corrosion protection effectively shields the tow bar from moisture and road salt. The automatic release mechanism allows quick removal of the ball and preserves the vehicle’s aesthetic lines after it is removed. The design uses factory chassis mounting points, ensuring perfect fitment.
The kit includes all components necessary for full mechanical installation of the tow bar (the kit does not include the wiring harness).
