    Amarok at AIMS 2010

    The new Volkswagen Amarok will be coming to Australia in early 2011. But to give you a glimpse into its class-leading features, we've updated the Amarok Record Lab with a few extras.

    Earlier this year, the new Amarok was the Official Car of the 2010 Dakar Rally Organisation (and we'll be back again in 2011). Roughing it through Argentina and Chile, the Dakar is the world's most grueling rally where only the toughest off-road vehicles prosper. Amongst these heavy hitters, Amarok stood proud, backing up the successful 1-2-3 win for the Volkswagen Motorsport team. To prove its performance, we've uploaded videos, photos, interviews and the Roadbook.

    See it in the flesh

    Witness the Amarok in all its glory. We'll be offering the Australian public a sneak peek of it before it launches at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney, from the 15th to 24th October 2010. Book your tickets and whet your appetite.

    From Your Volkswagen Team
