Why did VW stop making the Amarok?
Why did VW discontinue the Amarok? You can see the official reasoning above. As with all pickups, the Amarok produces a lot of CO2 emissions – something its powerful V6 engines do nothing to help. The coming CO2 average target for light commercial vehicles is 147g/km; the very best the Amarok V6 can manage is 231g/km.

What kind of design does a VW Amarok have?
The double cab silhouette doesn’t allow for much in the way of design scope, but the Amarok at least manages to express the VW styling ethos with conviction. The large headlights, prominent grille and supersized VW badge ensure that the Amarok could never be mistaken for anything else.
What kind of engine does the BiTDI Amarok have?
The 2.0-litre BiTDI engine has always felt strong, and this even more muscular version gets going with the kind of urge that threatens to spin tyres and strip gearboxes. The clutch is beefy, but has a trigger-fine action that requires some adept clutch work. In fact, it’s often kinder on the drivetrain to pull off in second gear.
What’s the top speed of a VW Amarok?
The Amarok always feels rapid, and for a double cab, its 10.3 second sprint time from zero to 100 km/h is rapid enough, as is the 184 km/h top speed. VW’s fuel consumption figure for the combined cycle is a frugal 7.9 litres/100 km, although as always, our real-world experience was around the 9-litre mark.
