Amarok wins Pick-up Truck of the Year

The Volkswagen Amarok has retained its title as Best Pick-up Truck at the What Car? Awards 2020.

The winning model, the Amarok Trendline 3.0-litre TDI V6 4Motion, once again won over the hearts and minds of the What Car? judging panel with its unique blend of on- and off-road abilities and all-round quality.

Commenting on the result, editor of What Car? Steve Huntingford said: “Just because a pick-up truck is expected to lead a hard-working life, that doesn’t mean quality in other areas must be compromised, and the Volkswagen Amarok presents the most compelling all-round package in the class. In fact, the Amarok even gives conventional sports utility vehicles a run for their money.”
