In the midst of downsizing, VW took the lead decreasing the engine displacement for the pickup market to just 2.0 liters. Americans have pickups with over three times more displacement engines. This one, though, is different. It is a 2.0-liter bi-turbodiesel unit that offers up to 170 hp.
Unlike its four-door sibling, which was launched in 2011, the Amarok single cab comes with a standard 6-speed manual, but the 8-speed ZF automatic transmission was offered as an option. And that was better since it doesn't need a transfer case or a low-gear ratio. First gear is low enough to haul up to 3000 kg (6613 lbs) and the eighth is overdrive for highway cruising.
The single cab has a 2.2 meter (7.2 ft) long bed, which is good enough for most of the loads. Those who need, can order the single-cab as a chassis-cab and complete the vehicle with other structures instead of a bed. Particular attention was given to the rear suspension, where the customer could have ordered a light-duty or heavy duty leaf-springs. Unlike its 4-door sibling, the single-cab can be ordered only with heavy-duty leaf springs. This allows the vehicle to carry up to 1394 kg (3073 lbs), depending on the model
The base interior is covered in plastic and fabric seats but still has an AC-unit and a basic sound system.
