ORIS: SO YOU CAN TRAVEL SAFELY AND FLEXIBLY WITH YOUR FAMILY
Family life needs space. For the pushchair, holiday luggage, the weekly shop or sports bags. And sometimes also for bikes, camping equipment and everything else that needs to come along at short notice.
ORIS towbars create the ideal basis for this. They make vehicles more versatile and enable the safe use of bike carriers, trailers, caravans or transport boxes on the towbar. This turns the family car into a flexible companion for everyday life, leisure and holidays.
Flexible travel with the family and ORIS towbars
For everyday life, leisure, holidays and spontaneous transport: towbars for families
The trip is planned, the bikes need to come along, the pushchair takes up space and bags, jackets and provisions are already waiting in the boot. Anyone travelling with the family knows these situations. The problem: the available storage space in the vehicle is often not enough.
This is exactly where the towbar becomes a practical solution in everyday family life. It opens up completely new possibilities for families: whether bike carrier, trailer, caravan or transport box, ORIS towbars create additional options for leisure, holidays and everyday use and provide more storage space.
ORIS towbars stand out for safety and everyday practicality
For families, this means that the towbar must match the vehicle, be easy to use in everyday life and work reliably with the planned accessories. This is exactly what ORIS stands for, with many years of experience in developing high-quality towbar systems and practical solutions for modern mobility.
ORIS develops towbars for numerous vehicle models and different areas of use. Depending on the vehicle and application, fixed towbars, detachable towbars or fully electrically swivelling towbars are available.
Safety is a key factor. Towbars must absorb high forces, connect reliably with bike carriers, trailers or transport solutions and remain durable in daily use. ORIS brings its many years of OE experience to this area: many vehicle manufacturers already rely on ORIS towbar systems as factory-fitted equipment.
ORIS uses this know-how and focuses on vehicle-specific systems, a precise fit and robust designs that are matched to the respective requirements of the vehicle.
The right towbar for your family car
Families rarely use their vehicle for just one purpose. Weekends often involve trips, visits, hobbies or transport tasks. During the holidays, additional leisure activities are added that require a towbar. That is why you need a towbar that fits family life.
A fixed towbar is particularly practical when it is used regularly and needs to be permanently ready for use. It is suitable for families who frequently tow a trailer, regularly use a bike carrier or often use their vehicle as a transport solution.
A detachable towbar is the flexible solution for everyone who only wants to fit the towbar neck when it is needed. After use, the towbar neck can be removed again and the vehicle keeps its everyday appearance.
A fully electrically swivelling towbar offers even greater convenience. It is ideal for families who value easy operation, comfort and high-quality integration. At the touch of a button, the towbar neck is ready for use or discreetly stored away again. This is particularly practical when the towbar is sometimes needed for the bike carrier, sometimes for a trailer and sometimes not at all.
The right coordination is always essential. Vehicle, accessories, nose weight, permitted towing capacity and total weight must all be compatible. Relaxed family mobility does not start at the destination. It starts with a safe connection on the vehicle.
Important key figures for families, bike carriers and trailers
Before travelling with a bike carrier, transport box, trailer or caravan, it is worth taking a close look at the permitted values. Towing capacity and nose weight are particularly important. The towing capacity specifies the maximum weight the vehicle is allowed to tow. This value is decisive when using a small trailer or caravan.
The nose weight describes the weight pressing down on the towball of the towbar. It is not only important when towing a trailer, but also when using bike carriers or transport boxes on the towbar. In these cases, the carrier's own weight and the payload act directly on the towbar.
Families in particular should not underestimate this point. Two e-bikes, a bike carrier and additional accessories can quickly add up to a significant weight. A rear-mounted box on the towbar also offers plenty of additional storage space, but it must match the permitted nose weight of the vehicle and towbar.
In practice, the specifications of the vehicle, towbar and accessories used are always decisive. The lowest permitted value within the system defines the limit. ORIS towbars help cover these different requirements safely and comfortably. For more possibilities in everyday life and more freedom on the road.
