It is an exciting time for anyone in the market for an off-road vehicle. There has been an urge for us to reimagine the traditional workhorse, and that tour is led by the Volkswagen Amarok. The words tough and rugged are usually sprinkled in conversations that involve bakkies, but now we can add a few more. The VW Amarok is a premium addition to the workhorse segment. Every element, from the exterior aesthetics to the lush cabin is a nod to luxury. The current range of VW Amarok is available in 5 different variants:
The exterior design of the Volkswagen Amarok is compelling and features a wider load bin when compared to its peers. There is also a third brake light which aids the motorist’s visibility. The interior of the vehicle is equally impressive. The cabin boasts leather finishes and a great array of innovations. A standout here is a functionality called ParkPilot, which ensures that the vehicle is parked correctly. The inclusion of Electronic Voice Amplification is an interesting feature. It allows the driver's voice to echo to the back of the car.
Keen VW Amarok followers know all about the performance of this vehicle, and the latest range is no disappointment. The Amarok is equipped with up to 200kW of power and 580Nm of torque. Its performance is enhanced even more with the inclusion of an over-boost functionality. This heightens the model's performance even more.
Motorists can expect that this range is also competitively priced. The entry model will retail for R794 200, whilst the Volkswagen Amarok 3.0TDi Extreme 190kW 4Motion A/T D/C P/U will cost consumers R1 118 200.
