    These things are as perfect as a car can be built. The best Ute on the market in Australia by far atm with the Ranger being second. In 2 years they will be the same ute

    Ok whatever. I've tried a few comments and had to keep deleting lol. Good to see another review from you, Patrick! As an American, I did have to live vicariously through your review, because Volkswagen doesn't sell anything remotely like this in the states!

    Just traded up from a 2.0 Core to a V6 Highline Black 580. After driving many utes and having a Hilux work car, I love the way the Amarok handles and the tub is brilliant. I wanted to trade up before they go with Ford as I like the look and handling of the current car. Cannot recommend the Amarok enough, not too many frills compared with the opposition, but it is a rock solid towing, carting and touring mobile!

      Well said. About to transition into a V6 core from hilux SR5, test drove one, incredible,

    Great clip good work, I have a v6 sport line 75000k on it love it, it’s the best crew cab going, excellent handling , performance on and off road’, I have driven 4x4s for 27 years in the wa bush beach water crossings hill climbs - just for fun and 23 years in mining this thing rocks and it’s fast , very fast acceleration makes for safe driving and over taking, it can do 227k top speed 250 kph after limiter taken off, if you wanted to. Fuel economy 8-10 lt per hundred on the highway all depending on the day,
    It’s effortless to drive ::: my other car is a BMW X6 v8 twin turbo / the amarok is close to the performance of that

    • @wallacelux
      @wallacelux Před 4 lety +1

      Hi Craig, wow great talk up on the amarok, I've always been a Toyota man, but I'm considering an amarok now, drove one recently, flies!!! So fast and great torque,

  • @malcolmscott4150
    @malcolmscott4150 Před 5 lety +1

    Great review Patrick - Mazda switching to Isuzu and now Ford VW partnership should see some interesting changes in segment - Ranger my favourite but value goes to Isuzu Colorado twins in current market although like a V6 tdi Amarillo core :)

  • @BRATPAC1
    @BRATPAC1 Před 4 lety +2

    No mention of the "reverse issue"? What they don't tell you is that the torque converter is limited to only 200 NM in reverse, this is due to a number of factors including no longer having a high and low range and the reverse gear ratio being the same as 2nd gear. A lot of grey nomads will be bitterly disappointed when they attempt to reverse the caravan up any slight incline. A quick test is to put an ordinary house brick behind each wheel and try to reverse over them, have a go if you doubt me! Good news is that an ECU remap can get rid of issues...unfortunately affects your warranty. Good luck!

    As well it’s the width and head room / it’s the only crew cab I can sit up right in as my height

    @ansett7687 Před 4 lety +2

    The Ford partnership scares me, this handles, drives better then the current Ranger, it also has a better build quality. Lets hope Ford doesn't cause the Amarok to take a step back with the new gen.

    @stever669 Před 4 lety +11

    A couple of errors:
    * not a twin turbo (2.0/4 cylinder version is twin turbo)
    * the cheaper Highline also has bi xenon headlights
    * Highline now available with 580 engine

      Not error he right normal 3.0 V6 is single turbo 165kW and 550Nm the ultimate V6 twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 will kick out potent 190kW and 580Nm.

    Not one to usually leave a comment but had to sub and comment after seeing the Melville maccas!
    Was after a ute and decided on an Amarok after testing a few others. While it isn't the perfect ute, it surely is the best one to drive.
    Anyways, great honest review. :)

    Too small, too expensive. This is a midsize pickup. Great for hauling but that would be it. For this amount of money you have a Laramie, Cheyenne, F150 which gives more space and more comfort. Fuel consumption might be good, but we don't drive trucks looking at 1 or 2 l/100km....

    • @ansett7687
      @ansett7687 Před 4 lety +1

      Yeah thats fine if you want a gas guzzler with very little real off road capability and if you also like poor build quality, then yes, you are right

    • @peterdebondt2823
      @peterdebondt2823 Před 4 lety +1

      @@ansett7687 can't say I disagree with your reasoning. But that was my opinion as a midsize truck owner. We'll see what happens when the truck world goes hybrid/electric.
