5 Star ANCAP Safety Rating
With the 5 star safety rating you can feel at ease on any journey knowing the extensive safety equipment in every Amarok will minimise the risk of harm.
Off-Road ABS
The off-Road ABS reduces the stopping distance on loose surfaces at the press of a button. When this function is activated the braking interval is increased; the wheels lock up in a controlled manner so that material from the ground, such as gravel or sand, build up in front of each wheel, reducing the stopping distance.
Trailer Stabilisation
The trailer stabilisation complements the Electronic Stabilisation Program. When fitted with a genuine wiring harness, if your trailer starts to fluctuate heavily, the system slows it down by means of controlled braking and reduced engine torque – steadying the trailer and increasing driving safety.
Composition Media System
The crystal clear 6.33" colour touch screen is packed with the latest multimedia functions, including App-Connect* and Bluetooth®. For added convenience the telephone functions can be voice activated.
App-Connect*
With this function, selected apps are mirrored from your smart phone to the touch screen of the radio or navigation system display via the USB port and controlled using the touchscreen.
*App-Connect is compatible for selected apps with the latest smartphone versions of iOS and Android.
Rear View Camera*
Whether reversing out of a busy parking lot or trying to squeeze into a tricky spot, an extra set of eyes is always handy. The Rear View Camera displays a live picture on your screen that shows what’s behind you and static guidance lines, which all come together to make reversing safer and easier.
*Safety technologies are not a substitute for the driver’s responsibility of the vehicle.
TDI Engine
Volkswagen’s cutting-edge turbo-injected TDI engine with diesel particulate filter features common rail technology that injects precise amounts of fuel at extremely high pressure. This results in impressive torque and performance.
TDI420 4x2 Auto
Available on the Amarok 4x2 automatic, the TDI420 is a 2.0-litre, 4 cylinder turbo engine that produces 132kW of power at 1750rpm*.

The widest loading area in its class
With the widest load tray in its class, the Amarok is built for the heavy lifting. The whopping 1222mm between the wheel arches makes it the only dual-cab ute in Australia that can accommodate a full-size pallet, and the fact that the tough tailgate can cope with loads up to 200kg, proves the Amarok will take the brunt of the most extreme workloads.
Interior
However tough your work may be, nothing will shake you in the Amarok. The cabin of the Amarok has been designed with you in mind. With adjustable front seats, uncomplicated but clever dashboard, multifunction leather steering with multifunction display and practical stowage pockets to keep your Amarok tidy, it’s got everything you need.
Exterior
The Amarok doesn’t just perform like a beast, it looks like one too. The Amarok comes with a host of exterior features designed to reflect its on-road and off-road capabilities. High strength steel throughout the chassis and body provide a robust platform, while hi-tech features such as the Bi-Xenon headlights (optional on Core Plus) pave the path ahead; they also light up the faces of passers-by.
4MOTION
The selectable 4x4 all-wheel drive on manual models distributes 50% of the engine output between the front and rear axles to ensure reliable traction on challenging terrain. With Permanent 4x4, which is standard on 4x4 automatic models, power is generally distributed between the front and rear axle 40:60. When driving on loose surfaces the TORSEN differential automatically distributes power to driven wheels with the most traction.
Intelligent Off-Road Mode
The Amarok has an intelligent 'off-road' button that sets up the vehicle for off-road driving. The off-road functions activated include hill descent control, and recalibrated ABS settings that improve performance on dirt, and reduces the stopping distance on loose surfaces.
Hill Start and Descent Control
The Hill Start system prevents the Amarok from rolling backwards when starting on steep inclines. The Hill Descent Control system, within off-road mode, automatically brakes individual wheels to allow a safe and controlled descent down a hill, even without engine braking.
Approach and Departure Angle and Wading Depth
From steep hills to snaking creeks, the Amarok can master extremely challenging terrain. It has an impressive approach angle of 28° and a departure angle of 23.6°– as well as a wading depth of up to 500mm. Plus, strong protection under the vehicle ensures the Amarok can forge a safe path.
Mechanical Differential Lock
The mechanical differential lock makes taking off in adverse, off-road conditions much easier. When the going gets tough you can rely on this standard diff-lock, which mechanically locks the rear wheels to ensure maximum traction in any condition.
Experience
The Amarok features extremely strong underbody protection on 4x4 models for extra security when off-roading. Pat Callinan knows more than most how important that peace of mind can be. He has criss-crossed Australia off-road more times than he can remember. The ‘tough as nails’ Amarok is his off-roader of choice. He understands that no matter where your journey takes you, Amarok has the mettle to get you through.
With a tonne of accessories to choose from, you can personalise your Amarok to be just right for you and the job you need it for.
Tow bar
The genuine tow bar and wiring ensure maximum towing with the safety and peace of mind of trailer sway control.
Rolling cargo cover

Roof bars

Tubliner
The new 5-piece tub liner ensures you protect both your Amarok's tray and cargo from wear and tear. The Amarok still fits a Euro pallet even with the tub liner fitted.
Keeping your Volkswagen running at the top of its game costs a lot less than you think.

Volkswagen Servicing
Every vehicle needs to be regularly serviced. It’s the definition of ‘regular’ that differs between us and our competition. Where other cars manufacturers require for bi-annual services, a Volkswagen only needs servicing once a year.
