    By James Cleary · 28 Nov 2024
    Volkswagen Australia used its Amarok dual-cab ute to set a new record for crossing Australia's 10 deserts... in one go. And a limited run of 300 '10 Deserts Edition' examples has been commissioned to celebrate.

    Volkswagen Amarok 2024 review: TDI600 Style
    By Marcus Craft · 10 Jul 2024
    The Volkswagen Amarok has been around since 2011 and it has garnered a stack of awards, a legion of fans and long ago set the standard for refinement in utes. Times changed, though, and the rest of the ute pack eventually caught up or even surpassed it. But the new Amarok is here and it shares the Ford Ranger's platform and many of that ute's components. Is it better than the top-selling Ranger?

    Volkswagen Amarok 2023 review: Core & Life
    By Andrew Chesterton · 27 Jun 2023
    Sure, top-spec utes are great, but what if you don't have a pile of money so high you'd need a 4WD dual-cab to climb over it?

We put the Amarok Core and Amarok Life to the test to find out.

    Volkswagen Amarok 2023 review
    By Byron Mathioudakis · 11 May 2023
    The original VW Amarok changed the ute, pushing out refinement and drivability boundaries. The new version is based on the Australian designed and engineered Ford Ranger, and shares its underpinnings, most powertrains, safety systems and structure.
