VW winter accessories: roof racks and snow chains from VW

D ie VW original snow chain is called Snox and is intended to make driving in extreme road conditions safer in winter. The Snox system automatically regulates the optimal tension of the snow chains and adapts to the current speed of the vehicle. The assembly takes place without the laborious threading of eyes and hooks, so that manual retensioning is no longer necessary. If the vehicle stops, the blockage is released. The snow chain can be removed in any tire position. The Snox snow chain is available from VW at prices from 129 euros, depending on the wheel size.

Lockable ski holder

With the new ski and snowboard holder, up to six pairs of skis or up to four snowboards can be transported on the vehicle roof. The new carrier should be able to be mounted with the Volkswagen Genuine basic carrier or the carrier bars on vehicles with roof rails and is also lockable. The ski and snowboard holder should also be operated with thick gloves thanks to the wide opening buttons. The new carrier costs 189 euros.
