Welcome to the mighty Volkswagen Amarok, with new class-leading power. This mid-size pickup is described as the thinking man’s ute.
The Amarok doesn’t just have a lot of character on the outside, there’s plenty of personality under the bonnet too. From its ladder-frame chassis up, the new Amarok is uncompromisingly tough. With its tried and tested 4-cylinder engine and permanent 4MOTION® all-wheel drive, you can go anywhere, without changing pace to shift gear.
With the refinement you expect of Volkswagen, you might forget you are in a rugged workhorse. The sophisticated interior makes driving a pleasure especially with the technically advanced, class leading 8-speed automatic gearbox.
The launch of the new Amarok V6 TDI makes it the most powerful ute in its class. Featuring unrivaled full-time road holding traction with permanent 4WD, the Amarok V6 is now available in either 165kW or 190kW power plants, with torque ratings of 550 and a class leading 580Nm.
The Volkswagen Amarok with free STIHL Power Package.*
The back blocks or the back yard?
Whichever wilderness you’re looking to conquer, do it in style with the powerful 2019 Amarok, an extended five year warranty and a bonus $2,400 STIHL power package.
The power to tame the wild – twice.
Local owners review the Amarok.
A team will lax lyrical about why they believe the Amarok is the king of the utes, but we’ll understand if you’re not quite ready to take their word for it, given their role as sales guys! So instead, we asked some of our existing, local, Amarok owners to let us know why they chose the Amarok when there’s so much competition out there.
Jeremy Elrick, Lands and Survey
“Why did we choose the Amarok? Easy, I drove one! Initially I was slightly put off thinking they would be too pricey but really there’s no difference with the other leading brands. But get behind the wheel and the difference is massive.”
