Volkswagen Amarok Comparison

The Volkswagen Amarok is a mid-size dual-cab ute for buyers who want serious utility with a more premium, SUV-like driving experience. Based on the same platform as the Ford Ranger introduced in 2022, it blends turbo-diesel workhorse ability, touring-friendly comfort and Volkswagen-specific design and cabin presentation. In Australia, the Amarok range suits tradies, private ute buyers and long-distance travellers who need towing, tray practicality and off-road confidence without giving up refinement. Higher-grade models lean strongly into lifestyle and performance appeal, with the Walkinshaw-developed Amarok W600 sitting at the top of the range with revised suspension and steering, a $91,990 before on-roads price, and flagship positioning above the Ford Ranger Raptor on price. It remains one of the more polished and premium-focused choices in the dual-cab ute market.
