Hi!

New to the forum and looking forward to getting our Karoq Edition 1.5 DSG in Business Grey in June!

We have specced the towbar for our car in order to carry a triple bike rack. The racks we like have the following minimum clearance requirements, but I can't find details of the clearances anywhere on the web. Does anyone know if there is enough clearance on the Karoq for what we are after?

Thanks in advance!!

If you give me a few days I will have a look for you and see if I can take some measurements.

Here goes MiKaroq...

I checked all the measurements against the photo you posted.

min 40 mm Karoq is approx 65mm

min 73mm high Karoq is about 80mm

min 25mm Karoq 25mm maybe slightly more the trouble is measuring this part you need about 5 hands :lol:

The Karoq's towbar is of a different shape to that portrayed in the diagram, I will attach a link to all the towbar photos that I have taken so hopefully will help you and others, the last picture shows the bump is not as pronounced as the diagram ie where the socket is, and is lower down than the hook so I don't think they would interfere with each other.

Should you need any other measurements or anything please let me know, I can try and get a 5 handed assistant to help me :P
