Volkswagen
Commercial Vehicles has wowed the crowds at the annual GTI enthusiasts' meeting
on the shores of Lake Wörthersee in Austria with an Amarok Power-Pickup concept
featuring a 3.0-litre V6 TDI engine with a power output of 272 PS and 600 Nm of
torque.
The engine is similar to that which Audi uses in
passenger cars. It has a compacted graphite iron cylinder block. The engine is always arranged longitudinally.
The Power-Pickup, based on
an Amarok single cab, is designed as a rolling workshop to carry spare parts,
tools and race equipment, with performance to take it from standstill to 62 mph
in 7.9 seconds in conjunction with an eight-speed automatic transmission and
permanent 4MOTION transmission.
The striking exterior
design features widened wheel arches to accommodate 22 inch alloy wheels, 80 mm
lowered suspension, bi-xenon headlights with chrome surround and a chrome
grille plus an enlarged lower air intake. At the rear there is also a
carbon fibre diffuser and dual exhausts, plus tinted taillights and red, white
and black side decals.
Inside, the dashboard, door
trims and exclusive Nubuck leather sports seats have a black, red and white
colour theme. In-car entertainment is supplied via an infotainment system
with an eight-inch touchscreen and 500 watt subwoofer.
