Regardless of whether you call it a tow ball or towbar they are essentially one and the same thing, or at least part of the same thing. Basically, the towbar, as it\u2019s often known, is in the simplest of models, a 50mm ball of iron that\u2019s fixed to your towing vehicle. This is the link between your towing vehicle and tourer. You connect the caravan hitch to it and hey presto, you\u2019re good to get going on the road!<\/p>\n

More complicated towbar and tow ball models consist of the iron ball, as standard, but also electrics that link to the tow. These form a connection not just at the hitch but between your car\u2019s computer and your caravan\u2019s computer so there is communication between the two about everything from parking sensors and braking to stability and the lights.<\/p>\n
