Volkswagen Amarok Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2016–2021)

Volkswagen Amarok Engines and Transmissions

The Volkswagen Amarok engine range centred on turbodiesel units chosen for pulling power rather than outright revs. A representative example is the 2.0 AT in Pickup double-cab form, pairing a diesel with an automatic transmission and all-wheel drive — a drivetrain that suits towing, loaded running and slippery surfaces alike.

Volkswagen Amarok Trims and Equipment

Volkswagen Amarok trim levels sit on top of the mechanical version rather than changing it. The 2.0 AT double-cab, for instance, was offered in Aventura specification, a higher-end package emphasising comfort and appearance. Equipment varied by market and year, so check an individual car's actual feature list.
