    Volkswagen has confirmed that an Amarok-based three-row wagon is in its planning for development.


    At a meeting with journalists in Melbourne this week, VW executives admitted that plans for a wagon built on the ute’s ladder chassis underpinnings had been initiated back when the ute first launched in 2011. The plans had since been shelved, but they are now back on the table.


    This turnaround comes with the introduction of the V6 TDI engine to the Amarok ute later this year.
    At the meeting Volkswagen Group Australia (VGA) commercial vehicles director, Carlos Santos, said: “There is some very serious development happening at the moment for an SUV based on Amarok, which will be quite a large passenger vehicle. The discussion has been reignited because this V6 engine is able to be sold in the US, whereas the 2.0-litre would never get into the States.”

    Yesterday, we reported on a story out of Australia suggesting that Volkswagen is developing an Amarok-based SUV. And now a little more information has come to light, including a possible introduction date.



    According to CarAdvice, any seven-seater SUV spin-off of the German bakkie will come only once the next-generation Amarok has arrived. And that puts a likely introduction date of 2020 into play.

  • Sowas würde bestimmt auch seine Abnehmer finden. Vor allem, wenn die Größe nicht merklich schrumpft. Meist wird es dann aber als Siebensitzer gebaut oder hinten eingekürzt.

  • Wenn das ding gebaut wird, wird er mit sicherheit nicht in Europa verkauft.


    Alle Leiterrahmen SUVs der Mitbewerber gibts nur in NZ AUS RUS USA ZA usw. Sogar der Nissan Pathfinder der neusten Generation wird nicht mehr in Europa verkauft.
