I actually thought the same thing about the front, with the bumper plastic so low it seems where ever they hook to underneath the car will do possible damage to the bumpers. I think in the rear one would just hook to the main axle beam but would have to look if this would interfere with the zlink.

on my cruze, the tow is not attached to the car and is kept together with the tire iron.

here is the tow which you need to screw when needed. note the thread on one end.

below are pix of where the tow is to be attached when needed.

front facia :
you need to remove that parallelogram shaped cap in the picture which is actually just a cover, once the cover is removed, you can see under there where you screw the tow.

rear facia - located on the right side - remove cap to access where the tow is to be attached.

I never noticed any cruze with tow setup like that in the U.S.

Sorry, I forgot to mention in my post that I am from the Philippines. Its a 2011 1.8L Manual.
My VIN tells me that its from Korea, same as Cruzes in some European countries.

The Holden Cruze has the cutouts too.

Our US-spec Cruzes do not have those cutouts. I don't think I even have that tow hook since mine doesn't have a spare tire or jack.

They don't put them on ANY American Cars ...Why I don't Know

All tow trucks made these days are able to lift cars by the wheels. Much safer than hooking to the frame. Or, the car is loaded on a flat bed.

Not to many towns, cities, or villages have these type of tow trucks. Most of them are flat bed trucks wit a winch to pull the vehicle up.

A wheel lift isn't any good at pulling a car out of the ditch in the winter time. Recovery hooks are a life saver.

WHY didn't the US version get that tow package .. I live in Northern Montana , does GM think we don't get snow ..

 

[TSURacing]

Those attachments are primarily for oversea shipping. The Korean units have them because they export globally. The US made ones only service North America.
