History
The Amarok pickup model, with the exception of the USA and Canada, is distributed worldwide.An annual production of 40,000 vehicles at the Hannover plant (double cab only) began for the European markets as well as for the Russian market at the end of June 2012. The Amarok is based directly on the concept vehicle , which was presented for the first time at the IAA for commercial vehicles in 2008.The Amarok name is a wolf-like creature in the mythology of the Eskimos . The VW Amarok was officially seen as the official escort vehicle of the Dakar Rally in Chile and Argentina in January 2010.
The Amarok pickup model number VWN817 is 5.25 meters long, has a double cabin and a loading area of 2.52 square meters. Since spring 2011, there is also a version with a single cabin and a correspondingly longer loading area. The loading platform is 1.55 meters long in the double cabin. The payload is up to 1.15 tons. In the Euro NCAP crash test in November 2010, the VW Amarok achieved 31 points (86%) in occupant protection and 17 points (47%) in pedestrian protection. In the overall ranking he received four out of five stars.
Optionally, a 2.0-liter 120 kW (163 hp) bi-turbo diesel engine or a 90 kW (122 hp) 2.0 l turbo diesel engine is available. The base model has rear-wheel drive. On request, a permanent four-wheel drive or manually engageable four-wheel drive with reduction and differential lock the rear axle is available (Shiftable 4Motion and Permanent 4Motion). The vehicle has a box frame , one at the front double wishbones with spring dampers suspended wheels, a steering rack and a suspended on leaf springs rigid rear axle. Front there are ventilated disc brakes, rear drum brakes.
Since fall 2011, a rear hardtop can be ordered directly from the manufacturer. In January 2012, the Amarok also came in Australia with the 2.0-liter TSI engine with 118 kW (160 hp) and rear-wheel drive.
In September 2016, a revised version of the Amarok came on the market. Since then, the engine has been powered by a three-liter V6 diesel engine, which also powers the Audi A6 or the VW Touareg . This engine is used in the Amarok in three power levels between 120 kW (163 hp) and 165 kW (224 hp), with the weakest being available only since spring 2017. Reason for the change is the lack of Euro 6 capability of the previous unit, which is also mandatory for light commercial vehicles since September 2016. For the 2017 model year, Volkswagen announced a facelifted Amarok range.
