Tow bars in Singapore: what they cost and what to check

Updated 31 October 2026

A tow bar in Singapore costs from about S$40 for a basic universal tow pole, around S$270 to S$730 for a bolt-on bar made for a specific car, and about S$1,440 to S$2,240 for a heavy-duty RV or 3,500 kg bar. Describe your car in a request on BlaBlaPrice to get current offers for your city.

Rules and warranty

Ask for the bar's type approval. Snippets say that a tow bar fitted to a car registered after 1998 must pass quality and strength tests and carry EC 94-20 type approval. Towball height and position should follow ISO 1102 and BS AU 113, which set a safe, level towing height. On warranty, snippets say a type-approved bar fitted correctly does not void a new car's warranty. Brand terms differ, from 12 months on materials to five years when the bar is fitted by a brand partner.

Season and wet weather

Singapore has no winter, so towing is planned around trips rather than seasons. The wet months are the real concern for the bar, because steel and coatings face rain and humidity all year. Ask about the corrosion protection, and check the paint and corrosion terms, which some dealers list apart from the main warranty.

How it is bought and fitted

Prices are in S$, and listings often quote the bar alone. Some kits include a 13-pin socket and wiring, so check whether the price covers wiring and fitting. Load ratings appear in kg or pounds (lb), so ask for both. Ask where the fitting is done, and state your city: Singapore, Tampines, Jurong West, Woodlands or Ang Mo Kio.

What to write in the request

Give the car make, model and year, the tow bar type you want, and whether you need wiring for trailer lights. Add the load you will tow, the fitting you want done, and your budget. A photo of the rear bumper helps a seller judge which bolt-on bar fits.
