Which engine is best in a VW Amarok?
Indeed, we don’t think the 3. V6 gives a significant boost in performance or a towing advantage (all Amaroks can tow 3,500kg) over the mid-range 202bhp engine, so we’d pick the 202bhp version. The Volkswagen Amarok is a classy dual-cab ute pitched at a premium price. Its links with the Ford Ranger are well known, but this VW Amarok Aventura TSI452 4MOTION distances itself as much as possible because it’s powered by a turbo-petrol engine rather than the traditional diesel employed in this sort of vehicle.Both the V6 and biturbo four-cylinder diesel versions of the 2024 Volkswagen Amarok are excellent options for towing a large caravan or other heavy trailer, with the 2. V6, at a lot less upfront cost.
What is the engine specs of the Amarok 3. V6?
In the case of the Amarok, it’s a 3. V6 producing an incredible 190 kW (200 kW on overboost) and a substantial 580 Nm of torque. It’s no surprise then, that this is SA’s fastest bakkie. The Amorak rolled off the production line with the 4Motion drivetrain, a V6 engine under its hood, and the PanAmericana, ‘off-road style’ trim level. All Amaroks are made in South Africa. A genuine bakkie! The V6 badges on the grille and tailgate refer to the 241 DIN-hp, 3. Ford Power Stroke turbodiesel.
