Surprised by Tow Hitch

[RHC]

Anyone else surprised by how large the gap is between rendering and actual car?

Are you talking about the gap vertically between the license plate and the hitch?
If so, that has to do with the configurator showing an EU plate (skinnier but longer plates) vs the NA ones (taller and shorter).

Confirmed and.... I'd love to have a NA plate....

No I meant the cutout around the hitch itself showing all the silver pipe.

Would be interesting to see if others have that pipe as well in NA.

2 cars at dealer with hitch both had the large cutout when I went looking.

Another example.

That looks like crap, are you sure it's supposed to look like that? Looks like the internals are exposed in a way they shouldn't be.

Here's a random picture I found of a 2023 Macan GTS with a tow hitch:

Can someone in Europe post a picture of the Macan tow hook?

The system in Europe is totally different. Over there, the tow ball automatically folds down. So, you don’t have that gap underneath.
