- This is the all-new Volkswagen Amarok!
Now there’s one thing about this new Amarok that really sets it apart from its predecessor... Underneath the skin, it’s pretty much a Ford Ranger! VW has just gone to work on it, adding some new body panels and updating some of the interior, but otherwise, it’s pretty much just a Ranger!
But either way, let’s see if this is one pick-up that you need to consider. Starting with the design, it’s clear from the rear that the Amarok brought in new body panels over the Ranger as you have a big Amarok wording embossed into the tailgate. We also have the Pan Americana trim on this edition, so we get some smart metal bars that sit along the edge of the load bed. Along the side, there are running boards, and upfront, the Pan Americana trim means we have a matte dark grey effect running through the bottom of the grille, which really adds to the imposing look of this pick-up.
Step inside and the familiarity with the Ranger becomes clear. The centre console and infotainment set-up are identical, with a big vertical screen in the centre of the dash. All-in-all the cabin is pretty well made, with soft-touch materials throughout the cabin. The infotainment system has been taken across from the Ranger, which is a good thing! Although, despite the Amarok coming with some physical buttons, you still have the use the touchscreen to control the climate.
When it comes to engine choices, there are three options. The entry-level is a 2-litre turbo diesel that can deliver 170hp and comes with a manual gearbox. Next up is a 2-litre turbo diesel that comes with a 10-speed automatic gearbox, with the ability to deliver 205hp. But the range-topper is a 3-litre V6 turbo diesel, which also comes with a 10-speed automatic gearbox, along with the ability to produce 240hp.
The price of the new Amarok starts from around £41,000, rising all the way up to around £57,000 for this top-of-the-range model. But is it worth it? Or should you go for a Hill or Ranger instead? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

It's a shame VW went through all the trouble of building their own pick-up from the ground up for the previous gen and then just ditched it for a rebadge
Which brand and model was this rebranded from?

Chief, both Amarok and Ranger are made in Silverton, not Rosslyn. The BMW X3 and Nissan Navara are both made in Rosslyn

Come on huya3201 what did he mean at 8:50 ??
Matt, even in South Africa you are a well known legend amongst petrol-heads! Keep up the good work!
😂we as South Africans know exactly what you mean Matt great review as always
What did he mean? I didn't get it.😭

stick to toyota hilux in africa
Theres highway crash scams, hijacking and robberies goin on there.
How are the energy production and usage transition going in Africa? New heat world records 5 days in a row last week.
Through the great gift to humanity, glaciology, we now have a YEAR BY YEAR knowledge of the planets atmospheric Carbon content (and much more) for a period more than 10 times longer since Homo Sapiens left the African continent the first time. For over 850.000 years our atmospheric Carbon content have been relative stable at 220 PPM. 3 times in the 850.000+ years have gigantic widespread global volcanic eruptions raised the Carbon content with 30 PPM and EACH time it have triggered longterm climate changes for a very long time before the planets regulating systems slowly have been able to bring it down to 220 PPM again. It are truth to state that a atmospheric Carbon content of 220 PPM created us and nearly all living species present on the globe with very few exceptions. Besides the Asteroid that hit Yucatan 66 million years ago the largest species extinctions we have been able to document have happened during the 3 times the atmospheric content rose with 30 PPM.
Since the Industrial revolution, just a few hundred years ago, we have raised the atmospheric Carbon content from 220 PPM to now (2022 number) 417 PPM! So humans NOW have caused not a 30 PPM rise but unprecedented 197 PPM!
We are right now in the largest species extinction period since the Asteroid hit Yucatan 66 million years ago!
The worlds oceans are right now heating with the same energy added equalling 5 Hiroshima bombs PER SECOND! That are the sickening facts!
Love how Matt intentionally causes traffic just to demonstrate how big the turning circle is haha.
Mat
For the first time I see you review a car we long had in South Africa. Normally we see them here on your channel before our SA roads
I was asking myself the same, Until he mentioned that it is built in SA.. 👌
toyota hilux is better
Not many left that have conscious to buy such a car, at least in Europe.

Lol Matt put South Africa on the map for a change, We are Proud and happy that we are contributing to something.
Antonio Porra, seems like even in Egypt, Egyptian people are happy to own a pickup truck like Amarok.
@@purwantiallan5089 Wow So great to hear that
Another South African over here. Glad to hear you like the truck, even though I am not a big fan. Definitely know what you mean about dash cams. 🤣
😂😂😂 our accidents on the road and VW Polo drivers catching hands from blue light brigade
Mat I've always thought UK was the dashcam capital, we only adopting the trend. But I must say, SA drivers are on the other level especially double cab drivers. They are always in a hurry.
Your no,1 South African viewer since 2016 Matt, waited all that time for koenigsegg 😂 and still here for that awesome reviews and epic drag races
3:31 "it's much easier to grab a knob".... I'd never argue with that!
MATT I’ve been waiting so long for you to do a review on this… youre honesty in your vids are crazy keeps me entertained haha keep it up..
Agree. Seems like feels waiting for 1 year for that.
@@purwantiallan5089 he didn’t wanna fly to SA to review it for the same reason there’s a usb port in the rear view mirror for dash cams 😂😂
I have been watching is channel for a very long time. This is the first time i see MATT wear an actual watch. That IWC is a great watch.
You should do an off-road challenge: Hilux Vs Amarok Vs Ford Raptor. The battle of the pickup trucks.
Hilux vs Corolla WRC vs Amarok vs Renault 8 Gordini?
Sout out to SA 🇿🇦. Here we are the Carwow fan boy
I enjoyed watching the Video Review. One of the best New Pick-Up Trucks 😊
Yes. But still nowhere near compared to 2008 Ford Super Chief Truck Concept.
Thanks for mentioning South Africa and yes we agree with you mate,you're the best at what you do.
Nice review of the new Amarok. If going for the new model, I'd just go ahead and get the Ranger.
From the old model, the interior soft touch dash and door cards are a definite improvement - can take or leave the big screens etc. However, the old V6 is more powerful stock and becomes insane for a pickup when worked on (definite contender for a remapped raptor). In addition, average around 38-40MPG easily driving the VAG V6 with just shy of 600 miles out a tank, low 30s if driving harder which really isn't required given the torque low down and speed limits on roads.
You should race it against the previous gen V6 Amarok
Would love to see your in-depth take on the New Ranger Raptor. Especially since you've driven crazy stuff like the Mammoth.
Aa
@@AIl2jithe VW AMAROK looked like downgraded Ford F150 for some reasons.
It looks really nice, I had the previous Amarok V6, which was superb. The 3.0 V6 diesel in this one is the latest iteration of the troublesome 2.7/3.0 Lion engine developed by FoMoCo and PSA. It helped to considerably damage Land Rover's unreliable reputation when applied to the Range Rovers and Discoverys. Lots and lots of info online. I hope they managed to address the issues, but I wouldn't be surprised if they persist.
Otherwise a lovely car and hopefully will be reliable for its future owners.
Being American, trying to keep track of the worldwide Ranger situation, let alone the engines is so confusing lol. Is that the 3L Powerstroke Diesel, or a Duratorq...?
Ford has done heaps of things to the engine to most likely fully emit the issues that the range rovers had.
US media have completely failed the American population. How come not every Americans at this point know the following critical facts.

When BOTH US´s parties receive the majority of their income from corporations they both sell their opinions for next term long before the voters turn up. Stop the insane lobby laws that judiciary would be defined as corruption in ANY EU nation! Politicians tend to serve those that pay their wages and that should be the American taxpayers. To expensive for them not to! The electoral college are undemocratic by design and although it might served a stabilising purpose when introduced it today deny the American democracy to earn it´s credibility to be just that. A democracy are built on a one man one vote, that counts, principle.
You deserve better USA. You deserve the option of voting for those you like rather than having to choose your least worst candidate.
You deserve a multi party democracy with a single parliament. A democracy based on 1 man 1 vote, that counts! THEN you will suddenly see that your REAL problems CAN be dealt with and solved while you laugh all the way to the bank!
The ROI on a off shore windmill park are now below 6 years. That are an absurd good investment! Combine with green hydrogen production and forget all about stupid batteries. The energy content in liquid green hydrogen are much higher than in gasoline! Green hydrogen are made with electricity from sun or wind and water and when green hydrogen are burned it only emits......wait for it......Water!
Please change or yu will have the power to drag an entire planet down with you. An American emits more CO2 than 10 Indians, just to give an example. And that are based on number excluding aviation and you fly more than other. It are based on own production and consumption meaning that all your imports CO2 emissions when produced are counted in those nations CO2 emissions. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE or we all die out eventually. Tipping points have begun to tip. NOW or to late! WE are OUT OF TIME!
You can thank the Australians for the ranger 😉
@@frostygamer3218And Thais for assembling it.
Shout out from South Africa! You'll definitely need that dashcam. VW's are high risk here
Nice review as usual. Can you please do a review of the performance on the old vs the new
Agree. Like Honda S800 and Honda Integra Type R DC5?
Just compare Ford Ranger with the Old amarok...as they are the same car...just a copy
the 2023 amarok with the new v6 doesn't throw you back in the seat like the old v6s but it's a much nicer truck
Great to see you reviewing practical cars that you see more people buying (i.e. New A Class, Prius and now this). I don't know if this is irrelevant in the UK but a tow test from a few 4WD's would be cool to watch.
Towing is definitely relevant in the uk
Thanks Mat for the kind words. All the way from South Africa
Now we need offroad competition 💯
Include the dmax please
@@tinomutendasheshumba1818include also the VMAX and MITSUBISHI MIRAGE CYBORG R.
@tinomutendasheshumba1818 Yeah, a DMAX vs. Amarok vs. Ranger vs. Hilux vs. Ineos Grenadier vs. Jeep Gladiator off road battle would be awesome!
Would an OFF-ROAD challenge among Toyota Hilux, VW Amarok, Ford Raptor and Mercedes X come?
There are plenty of pick up trucks build in South Africa for local and export markets, including the Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger, Nissan Navara, Isuzu D Max, and Mahindra also has local assembly of some pick ups.
Representing South Africa 🇿🇦. Love your work Matthew
Thanks for doing this video Matt…….. Been waiting to see what the new Amarok is really like before considering chopping in my current X-Class……… Not sure I want to now 😱😱😱
Been waiting for this one👌👌
Hilux is still KING here in South Africa 🇿🇦.
Watching from South Africa 🇿🇦, glad to hear SA being mentioned.
Hi Matt I'm watching in South Africa 🇿🇦 You're Number One In The world No one Like You.
This is literally just a Ford Ranger with a higher price point.
And it’s not as good.
@@Paradoxical124it is considered to be far worse version of Ranger or Ford Super Chief Truck Concept. LOL. 😂
Correct. And if this was a real car review channel - instead of just a paid marketing money grabbing channel - they would have least had some comparison. But then that twat would probably lose access to all the events he's being paid for by constructors, so not gonna happen. #mattthesellout
apart from the different exterior, interior, suspension, headlights, speakers, 5 year warranty, 5 year servicing and breakdown cover
Extra like for the Ingenieur 😁🙏🏻
Would go for the Ford ranger though, even as a German, somehow I like the design more.
you should comment about the transmission and axle problems present on previous versions. The second point is that what countries this version is able to sell and if they intend to go all around the world!
What problems ? Mine has never missed a beat.
Thanks for the review 👏
Great review like always 👍🏽
Agree. Seems like Carwow reviews always done the justice.
In the Netherlands we are not allowed to drive Pick Ups due to very high taxes.
I think you can't help noticing that it's a Ranger, this side already delivers... even the front side already reminds me of the Volks design... but at least on the German one you can tell it's new and not just another restyling as it happens in the Ranger... it may not even have been bad only when they point out that it is a new generation I really hope that it is all new and in the Ford it seems that only the front design is new, and the side panels, but they just being readjusted with a new format, I don't doubt that the whole structure is the same and in my view this can't be considered new!
This is just the start of the vw / Ford collaboration can’t wait to see the new transporter / transit , it’s end of an era for vw commercials , RIP
I'm here to confirm that your South African viewers know EXACTLY what you mean 🤣
I don't get?!😢
It held up it's status in South African as the most expensive pickup truck, I wonder if this iteration will still hold.
Yep. In South Africa it costed $150.000.
Great video Mat!
Been waiting for this review
I’d Genuinely love to see The Off-road Test with its Key Competitors
Currently driving the ranger.
Seems a really nice all round package. Ive not timed a 0 to 60 but the ford unit feels strong considering the weight.
2L or 3L

10k in and still brilliant
You can switch the cameras on in the parking mode options and also switch a camera off delay on in the settings.
7:01 The mirror made a Spider-man Prowler villain theme song😂😂
Trust me i have watched more than 10 reviews of this car but this is the best review ever,carwow is the best.. and i think we need more of these kinds of review
Just a question, I prefer this Volks design because it seems more aerodynamic to me than the Ranger wall front, but is there a difference between them? What is the best aerodynamics?
South African viewer here👋🏾 been watching for 5 years
A nice pick-up . For every day work and life. I think that the model 240 hp diesel is quite expensive. But we are not in the US and we must follow the rules of our countries.
As a watch enthusiast Mat's IWC Ingenieur stole the show for me! What a great watch, we watch nerds love it when a watch and its owner exude this ''bang on!'' sentiment. Wear it in good health and happy times, and the truck was more impressive than I thought!
Amarok is like Ford Ranger that has grown 250kgs in weight.
Matt if you guy's have the gwm (great wall motors) p series LT 4x4 the top of the range bakkie/ light truck. Test it, review it, even off road. Check it out. Awesome futures, stuff you get in mercedes s class.
Great Wall did offer a pickup in the UK some years ago but it was a terrible machine and they sold very few. They pulled out of the UK when emission controls tightened I believe.
As a South African viewer i 100% know what u are talking about 🥴🥺💯
Stay safe 😂
8:41 ooof I'm in the US and I knew about that one! "Highway robbery" if you catch my drift 😂
Mat gives the best reviews
Actually there is a single cab version of the Amarok..maybe not in the UK
I agree. This is because in recent years the single cab and two wheel drive versions collectively took about 1% of total sales. Personally I would take an extended cab with the mid-length loadbed but not a single cab pickup. Indeed that would be my preferred option but nobody stocks them any more in the UK and they are factory order only. Indeed Ford make them but they don’t offer them in the UK currently just as VW do not offer the basic single cab work truck. They would be competing with the likes of Isuzu for a tiny margin. Remember that Mitsubishi, Nissan, Renault, Fiat and Mercedes used to offer pickups in the UK and Europe but have given up the market.
I have this model and it’s pretty good, massive at first but after a week of driving it it’s much more manageable. And if you’re gentle it will do 30-32 mpg on a long journey. Towing is effortless with the v6, 3 plus ton easily.
I love this truck
Also, jay Leno wearing Lederhosen, which is something I would watch
Im assuming Matt is refering to dash cams in South Africa and getting hijacked?
Are you sure about the lack of availability of the Raptor’s rear coil springs? The top Adventura model has the Raptor’s reduced payload of around 650kgs which makes me suspect that it has coils but with a luxury road emphasis rather than sporty offroad as with Raptor. The disadvantage of the reduced payload is that it prevents HMRC classifying them as ‘dual purpose vehicles’ which means that they do not qualify for VAT repayment which immediately makes them uncompetitive for VAT registered business buyers.
All variants are limited to 10mph lower speed limits than cars or car-derived vans on UK ordinary roads and dual carriageways, respectively down to 50mph on A and lesser roads and 60 on dual carriageways. They can all do 70 on motorways of course unless otherwise indicated or towing a trailer.
On the money, very poor from VW. Can’t see them selling many Aventura’s
Going by any Ranger/Amarok I've encountered on the road, they're doing at LEAST 15 over the speed limit at all times.
I watch all the episode and i must say… as a South African, it’s probably the first time i feel proud of a mentions🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Very nice watch Matt. Very classy
I’d get the diesel version of that. It’ll be one of the last diesels ever available.
The VW Amarok is a great Pickup Truck, at least the previous Models are and you see them everywhere here in the Bavarian Alps, often used off-road and to carry Timber etc.
Hope this one is also or at least just as great as the previous Models
Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
Hilux is just waay better.
Ich komme aus Traunstein und habe noch nie einen gesehen 😂

Huge fan of Carwow from South Africa 🇿🇦🖤🙌Proud of that Amarok bakkie made in S.A
In Australia we only get 2 engines, the V6 diesel and a 4 cylinder 2.3L turbo Petrol, the 4 cylinder is quicker than the V6, but it only comes in the top spec model, no cheaper versions are offered.

i think the previous version of the amarok is better with the 258 hp v6 and not so heavy to
First-gen Amarok used VW's 2,967 cc V6 - second-gen uses the same 2,993 cc V6 as Jaguar and Land Rover used to offer
Exposed rear cup holders are better than the retractable ones. I have a 4 and a 5 years old kids, they break anything that slides. Great bakkie, but I'd still go for the Ford Ranger.
It's the same on a DAF T244 and that was made in the 90s - the inside door handle :)
Agree. Its basically an overgrown version of it...
Tbh for most people who actually want a work vehicle a used vw sharan would be much more practical and a lot cheaper.
So the VW Amarok is a Ford, the Mazda BT-50 is an Isuzu, and the Mercedes X-Class used to be a Nissan.
It's almost as if some companies shouldn't bother making pick-ups.
Handles are great
6:35 Matt never fails 😂😂
The gear lever is actually very easy to use and is really versatile, allowing high gear limit, visibility of gear selected and manual operation. Granted that paddles would supplement it nicely of course.
Do you know if there’s a Sports Mode in the amarok?
I know the Ford has a Sports Mode.
@@brad0973
There is no Sports Mode in the Ford latest generation 10 speed, but Tow/Haul mode has a similar effect and puts it into 4A, although it can be deselected individually to 2wd if desired.

I *H A T E* that these are becoming popular here in Europe. They're massive so absolutely inadequate for European city centres, which the owners somehow think it's a good idea to drive in with, they're far more inefficient than the vans we already have therefore pointless, and outright dangerous for pedestrians.
I can't wait to have these added to the list of vehicles banned from traffic-restricted zones.
Matt, you call it the German Hilux, but does to live up to this title? Does it have the legendary reliability of the Hilux?
I thought so!! reminds me of when Mazda sold a rebadged Ford Ranger. You should of flown across the pond to Utah this month. Ford allowed the Car Reviewer types to run the Raptor around the dirt/mud tracks.
As a Canadian, its wild to me that you would call this a large truck.
And just under $99,000 cdn?? Am I doing the math wrong?
I'd rather have the actual Hilux. More reliable and has better resale value.
But worse performance, comfort, technology and design.
