Amarok reveals its dark side with new Black Editions

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has launched a pair of new Amarok special editions - the Amarok Black Edition and Amarok Aventura Black Edition – which are among the most powerful and luxurious variants of the award-winning pick-up.

Black Edition models, which start from £34,835 (excl. VAT), are powered by the Amarok’s standard 3.0-litre V6 TDI engine with either 204 or 258 PS and with an eight-speed automatic gearbox. Aventura Black Edition models, priced at £40,995 (excl. VAT), will be available with only the 3.0 TDI V6 258PS engine.

Extra premium features

Both newcomers are based on the range-topping Highline specification but add a host of extra premium features. Black Edition models come with 20-inch black Talca alloys, a Lights and Vision pack that includes a windscreen wiper rain sensor and Discover Media Navigation.

Further styling add-ons include a black styling bar, black rear bumpers, black sidebars, black fog light frames, a black polish trim strip on the grille, black headliner and a gloss black decorative insert on the dashboard.

Exclusive Nappa leather interior

In addition, Aventura Black Edition models feature exclusive Nappa leather interior, Ergo Comfort front seats with electric adjustment, leather multifunction steering wheel with paddles, power folding wing mirrors, front fog lamps with cornering feature, front underbody guard, styling for under body cladding and load compartment protective coating.
