Almost a year has passed since the global presentation of the new Volkswagen Amarok, a pick-up produced in South Africa in conjunction with the new Ford Ranger and, while we wait for more information about what will be the profound renewal of the Amarok that is currently sold in Mexico, in Europe a kit has just been presented that turns the second generation into an off-road beast . And we don’t say it like that on a whim…
VW Amarok II Beast 2.0 by Delta4x4: Main features
Called Beast 2.0 (“Beast 2.0” in Spanish), it is a package developed by Delta4x4, whose result comes to light after more than half a year of work. It is worth remembering that, last November, the German workshop itself released a series of renders with what they expected to be the off-road kit for the German pick-up.
Although the final result was somewhat different from what was originally thought (narrower fenders and the absence of a protective bar in the front, a luggage rack on the roof) it is a kit that adds several elements to the Amarok II:
Forehead
- Grille and center bumper assembly in black, nothing chrome/silver
- Parrilla adds two new LED lights
- VW logo replaced by the one of the workshop (also on the back)
- Tow hooks in red
Laterals
- 385mm (+150mm) ground clearance
- 60mm wider fenders
- 18” wheels and 33” BF Goodrich tires
- redesigned footpegs
- It doesn’t have a roll bar.
With regard to mechanics, Delta4x4 kept Ford’s 3.0L V6 engine, which is capable of delivering 250 Hp and works with a ten-speed automatic gearbox. Traction is integral.
What do you think about the kit for the new Volkswagen Amarok? What would you add for off road use?
