The new 2023 VW Amarok will arrive next year, featuring a more handsome body. Reportedly, the upcoming pickup will receive numerous upgrades. Interestingly, the first renderings just came up, and visually the Amarok looks much different than its predecessor. It features a better look and front end that definitively dominates this time.
As we can see, the next Amarok will include massive bulging arches, higher ground clearance, large off-road wheels, and bold rear-end styling. As for the engine, the Amarok could draw Ford`s 2.3-liter turbo-four and possibly even the 2,7-liter turbo V-6. Surely, expect to see diesel engines for markets outside the U.S.
2023 VW Amarok Design
Speaking of design, the upcoming 2023 VW Amarok will look different from its predecessor. This truck is Ranger-based, featuring the same platform and mechanical. So, it will definitively become the next VW flagship pickup. As mentioned, some of the renderings are available, and at first glance, this truck exaggerates the visuals lines and the proportions.
First of all, it features a more aggressive front end with a massive grille and new headlights. Sure, it would be amazing to see the new Amarok with those massive bulging arches from renderings, higher ground clearance, large off-road wheels, and bold front-end styling.
New Virtual Cockpit
The next-generation 2023 VW Amarok will be based on the Ford Ranger pickup truck, which is excellent news. We expect the new pickup to come with a more modern cabin, and it could be available with a dual-cab design. The single-cab configuration that has been available on the entry-level choice will be ditched.
In general, the dual-cab is a much better form because it offers a more spacious cabin and it allows five seats. As for technology, the next-generation truck will probably house a new infotainment system, virtual cockpit, and more standard equipment. We should also expect better safety features and a much higher rating in this department.
2023 VW Amarok Powertrain Specs
Under the hood, the new 2023 VW Amarok could draw power from the new engines. From what we heard, the forthcoming truck might borrow some engines from Ford. The first candidate is a 2.3-liter turbo-four, and there is also a possibility of a 2,7-liter turbo V-6.
Considering high regulation in the U.S, we expect diesel engines for markets outside. VW insiders have also hinted coming of an updated version of the silky-smooth 3.0-liter V-6 TDI. This engine powers old Amarok and a vast number of upscale VW Group cars.
Release Date and Price
The new 2023 VW Amarok will come with more handsome styling. Details are still a bit sketchy, but we can surely expect the latest variant to be released sometime next year. A few renderings are available, and from them, the VW Amarok looks more attractive than before.
As we mentioned, the new model, besides the more handsome look, will also introduce more standard equipment. On top of that, it will feature a body-on-frame architecture that is related to the new Ford Bronco SUV. Pricing is still secretly kept, but we presume it will cost less than $35,000.
