Unfortunately, not all of us are blessed with AAA or CAA road assistance service, and something like that might be handy - this is a hard connection, as opposed to a rope or cable.
Our cars are already equipped with a tow eye/hook, and this tow bar goes with that eye.
My question is, has anyone used it, or maybe seen it, is there a spot in the trunk where this bar would go, how long is it...
Thank you

Abschleppstange just means tow bar.
here is a link for eBay Germany showing how it is used. This one is new and rated at 2500 KG.
