In the Netherlands, this vehicle category plays a minor role, but worldwide pick-ups are one of the most popular types of commercial vehicles. The name Amarok primarily means &#8216;wolf&#8217; in Inuit languages, but it would also mean a love of stones in Romance languages.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Especially for the Netherlands<\/strong><br\/><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like most competitors, the Amarok is available with two- or four-wheel drive and with different cab variants. Perhaps striking is that Volkswagen developed an extra model especially for the Dutch market, with a slightly longer wheelbase. That extra length benefits the length of the loading platform, so that the Amarok, in combination with the five seats, is not subject to bpm on gray registration.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>To America?<\/strong><br\/><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Amarok is delivered almost worldwide, but not in &#8216;pick-up country&#8217; America. Because of the so-called Chicken Tax, an extra tax on foreign company cars, the Amarok would become too expensive there. Moving production to the US to avoid the tax is not an option at the moment. Volkswagen has reserved the name Amarok in America, because you never know what the future will bring.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technical<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Engine type<\/td><td>diesel, V6<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Displacement<\/td><td>2,970 cm\u00b3<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>max. assets<\/td><td>120 kW (163 hp)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bee<\/td><td>2,750 rpm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>max. couple<\/td><td>450 Nm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bee<\/td><td>1,250 rpm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Drive<\/td><td>rear wheels (option 4WD)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Brakes from\/a<\/td><td>given disks\/discs<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Turning circle<\/td><td>12.95 m<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Power range<\/td><td>120 to 165 kW<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">General<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Transmission<\/td><td>6MT<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Body type<\/td><td>4-drs. pickup<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Euro NCAP<\/td><td>5 stars<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Market launch<\/td><td>Nov 2011<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Latest facelift<\/td><td>August 2016<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Guarantee<\/td><td>4 years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>From price<\/td><td>\u20ac87,637<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Particularities<\/td><td>Only the version with a double cab is available with a yellow license plate.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dimensions\/weights<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>L x W x H<\/td><td>5,321 x 1,954 x 1,834mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Wheelbase<\/td><td>3,097mm<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mass empty<\/td><td>1,955 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>max. acc. wt.<\/td><td>3,500 kg<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>cont. bag. room.<\/td><td>na l<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tank capacity<\/td><td>80 l<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consumption<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>conn. combined<\/td><td>8.3 l\/100 km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CO\u2082 emissions<\/td><td>218 g\/km<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Energy label<\/td><td>G<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Acc. 0-100 km\/h<\/td><td>9.6 sec<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>top speed<\/td><td>180 km\/h<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2010, Volkswagen decided to enter the mid-sized pick-up segment, such as the Nissan Navara and Toyota Hilux.
