Volkswagen upgrades four-cylinder Amarok range

VOLKSWAGEN’S range of four-cylinder Amaroks will receive interior and exterior upgrades to bring it in line with the recently launched V6 range.

Headlining the changes for off-roaders is an increase in 34mm of ground clearance on all four-cylinder models, thanks to the new closed-type underbody guard that has already been implemented on V6 models.

This, along with subtly revised front bumper design (also already seen on V6 models), gives the four-cylinder Amaroks a more robust, aggressive appearance.

All four-cylinder Amaroks now receive, as standard, VW’s Multi-Collision Braking system and a Composition Media unit with App Connect (featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity). Within the media unit, all four-cylinder 4x4 models come with the functionality of rear-view cameras and rear parking sensors.

On top of the already mentioned upgrades, Core Plus models receive carpet floor, updated cloth seat trim, front parking sensors, additional 12-volt sockets, body-coloured mirrors and door handles, rear grab handles and a post-collision braking system.

The Amarok V6 was runner up at the 2017 4x4 Of The Year, and these changes bring the four-cylinder models up the V6’s high standard.

The upgraded range is available in-stores now.
