Sporty 2013 special edition Amarok Canyon on the way

Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles introduced a concept vehicle designed for extreme outdoor sports, the prototype Amarok Canyon, at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show in March. Announced in their recent press release, the genuine off-road vehicle with pick-up truck power and styling was so well received at the show that Volkswagen has decided to offer a special edition version of the Amarok based very closely on the concept vehicle: the Amarok Canyon, as of early 2013. Taking ideas from the concept model, the new special edition model Amarok will include a striking 'copper orange' colour scheme, AT wheels, lamp bar, styling bar and interior fitting details. As an additional extra option, you can even have a lamp bar with four extra headlights on the roof. Per the information in the release, "the Amarok Canyon is available with both TDI engines, generally in combination with permanent or on-demand four-wheel drive (4MOTION) and optional differential lock on the rear axle. Designed for outdoor activities, the special edition also has redesigned 17-inch ‘Roca’ alloy wheels fitted with size 245/70 R 17 AT-tyres. If desired, 18-inch wheels with road tyres are also available." The interior will be accented with a special colour scheme, it’s designed with two tone partial leather seats, and the leather-covered gear lever coordinates with the orangey-red colour of the vehicle body.



 

The Amarok Canyon will also be available from early 2013 in ‘Reflex Silver’, ‘Natural Grey’ and ‘Sand Beige’. As an alternative to the styling bar and associated cargo space cover, the ‘Canyon’ will also be available with a practical hard top.
