SERVICING

VOLKSWAGEN’S four-year servicing deal is well priced and is more cost effective than the offers from the other two brands.

ENGINE

MAXIMUM 500Nm of torque from the V6 TDI engine is available from very low down in the rev range, at just 1,250rpm.

0-60MPH TIME

THE Amarok was the quickest truck here, with some impressive figures in our tests. This fine performance should help when towing big loads.
