The Bora features a clean, traditional three-box sedan silhouette with Volkswagen's understated design language. The front presents a horizontal chrome grille with the VW roundel, flanked by halogen or available LED headlights. The side profile is straightforward and aerodynamic, with a character line running from front to rear. The generous 4,672 mm length gives it a substantial, premium presence that belies its compact-sedan pricing. The rear features clean taillight clusters and a subtle trunk lip. Chrome door handles and window trim on higher trims add a touch of refinement.
