Volkswagen Amarok
the German automaker has been selling a pickup truck for several years now, but it thinks bringing it to Canada and to the United States won’t be profitable. Yet it’s available right below us in Mexico. It can be equipped with a turbo-diesel, 3.0-litre V6 that produces 224 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque, according to the country it’s available in. It boasts a maximum towing capacity of about 7000 lbs. (3150 kg). We’d settle for a pickup truck inspired by the Volkswagen Atlas Tanoak Concept unveiled at this year’s New York Auto Show.
