And the Volkswagen Amarok is one of the very best – in fact it's so good we voted it our 2020 Pickup of the Year. While some rivals are available in a variety of bodystyles, all versions of the Amarok have four doors and five seats.
The Amarok doesn't have trouble putting the power down thanks to another unique selling point: full-time 4WD. It uses a Torsen centre differential splitting torque with a slight bias towards the rear. It's another no-fuss part of the Amarok, making it feel very planted and stable.
Reliability & safety. A full complement of airbags and high build quality make the Volkswagen Amarok a dependable and safe choice for long-term ownership. Its components have been developed and tested to a very high standard compared to some other commercial vehicles.
Production sites and figures. The Amarok is currently being produced in the Volkswagen Group plant in General Pacheco, Argentina; for South American, Mexican, Oceanian, South African, Russian, and European markets. It is expected to produce 90,000 Amaroks annually once production is at full capacity.
Volkswagen has released pricing for its new limited-edition Amarok V6 580S, with 200 examples coming to Australia from $70,990 plus on-road costs.

Many of our Volkswagen models are available with 4MOTION, including the Amarok V6, Tiguan, Touareg and the Transporter, to name a few. 4MOTION is Volkswagen's permanent all-wheel drive system, which offers great grip on the toughest roads and in the worst weather (through rain, snow and hail).
