Volkswagen strengthens Amarok model line-up with introduction of the Dark Label

• Amarok range enhanced with the introduction of new Dark Label derivative
• Dark Label available with a choice of 2.0 TDI (125kW) and the 3.0 TDI V6 (184kW) engines

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has expanded the Amarok model line-up with the introduction of a new derivative, further strengthening its offering in the premium bakkie segment.

Based on the Amarok Style, the Dark Label derivative introduces a more distinctive and design focused interpretation of the range. It is offered with a choice of the 2.0 TDI (125kW) and the 3.0 TDI V6 (184kW) engines, appealing to customers seeking both performance and refined design.

The Amarok Dark Label is immediately recognisable by its lettering and its 20-inch alloy wheels in matt black. The front apron and radiator grille as well as the underbody protection are also in black, along with the lettering on the sides, privacy glazing with dark rear side windows, matt black B-pillars and roof rails as well as black exterior mirrors, steps and door handles. And from the rear, you can recognise the Amarok Dark Label by the black rear bumper, its darkened taillights, a matte black styling bar, the dark rear window and a black handle on the tailgate.

In the interior of the Dark Label, seats are in dark ‘ArtVelours’, door panels are in black and the centre console as well as a headliner in ‘Ebony Black’. A leather steering wheel with Dark Label emblem and velour floor mats, with Dark Label lettering at the front, add the finishing touch to the dark ambience of the Amarok special derivative.
