The Volkswagen Amarok has become a serious contender in the pickup market, especially in Europe and the UK. With its strong ladder-frame chassis, selectable or permanent 4WD (depending on model) and refined diesel powertrains, the Amarok is equally at home on a motorway or a muddy trail. Its off-road credentials are boosted by features like hill descent control, locking differentials and impressive ground clearance—helping it keep pace with more traditional utility-focused brands. You can read more about Amarok development on Volkswagen’s official site.
At 4×4 Works, we’ve seen a growing demand for Amarok upgrades, particularly among customers looking to enhance their vehicle’s off-road and expedition potential. Whether it’s for touring, commercial work or leisure activities, we offer a comprehensive range of accessories to help owners tailor their vehicles to their individual needs.
Our range of suspension kits includes performance shocks and raised springs from leading brands like Old Man Emu—ideal for tackling rough tracks while carrying heavy loads. We also offer steel front bumpers, snorkels and underbody protection to ensure your Amarok is ready for tougher terrain.
If you’re planning longer trips or off-grid adventures, our Front Runner roof racks provide strong and modular cargo solutions. Combined with storage drawer systems and solar kits, these systems help make any Amarok a capable overland vehicle.
Volkswagen’s 4MOTION system, used across many of their SUV and commercial models, has also played a major role in expanding the brand’s 4WD footprint. Unlike traditional part-time systems, 4MOTION automatically distributes power between all four wheels based on conditions, offering improved traction on snow, gravel or mud. For drivers of vehicles like the Touareg or Transporter 4MOTION, this makes for a versatile and confident driving experience, both on and off the beaten track.
While Volkswagen may not be the first name that comes to mind for hardcore off-road use, its commitment to safety, innovation and performance has earned it a respected place among utility and adventure-focused drivers. At 4×4 Works, we’re proud to support the growing community of Amarok and Volkswagen 4MOTION owners with carefully selected parts, expert advice and reliable customer service.
