Volkswagen has launched two special edition models
of the Amarok in the UK, the Amarok Black Edition and Amarok Aventura Black
Edition. Both models are powered by the range-topping 3.0 litre TDI V6 engine, available
in either 204 PS or 258 PS tunes. Prices start from £ 35,790 for the
base model to £ 41,950 for the Amarok Adventura Black Edition.
Now, both models are based on the top Highline trim
and come standard with blacked-out items such as the 20-inch Talca alloys,
styling bar, rear bumpers, sidebars, fog light frames, polish trim strip on the
grille, black interior headliner, gloss black decor on the dash, as well as
Lights and Vision package which includes Discover Media Navigation system with
off-road info display.
Besides that, the most expensive model gets Nappa
leather interior, Ergo Comfort front seats with electric adjustment,
leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel, paddle shifters, power-folding
side mirrors, front fog lamps with cornering function, front underbody guard,
underbody cladding trim and load compartment protective coating.
Other than that, it’s pretty much the standard
Amarok. An eight-speed automatic transmission is standard, as well as features
such as front and rear parking sensors, a big load bay capacity, Trailer
Stabilisation, and Automatic Post-Collision Braking System. Those wanting a
more menacing look can opt for the £ 2,420 matte black paint colour,
whereas the Mountain Top roll covers are available for £ 1,665 installed.
