FLOATING DESIGN: THE DISPLAY UNIT IN THE NEW AMAROK

Posted By Eastend Coachworks and written by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles Published Date: 13-06-22

The central control unit in the premium pick-up is going vertical
Design tribute: display unit showcased in a short clip

Hannover, 13 June 2022 – Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ premium pick-up will soon be celebrating its premiere. And its interior presents a further highlight. The display unit in the new Amarok is in future vertically aligned and offers a better overview and extensive control options. A short video clip shows the screen, which has a diameter of up to 12 inches.

A better overview and easier access to controls in Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ new premium pick-up: with the new digital cockpit and a display unit (with 10 to 12-inch screen) that is almost vertically ‘levitating’ above the central console many new possibilities in the segment open up. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is using a mix of digital functions and ergonomically optimally configured buttons and/or push/rotary switches in the Amarok that are intuitive to use.

Additionally entering the pick-up world of the Amarok are over 30 driver assist systems, which can be configured via the display. More than 20 of them are to be found in the Amarok range for the first time. These include lane-keeping and lane-changing assistants, lighting and speed assistants, and also surrounding area view and road sign recognition. The scope of interaction between vehicle users and pick-up, for example via mobile online services such as ‘We Connect Navigation’ and the operation of air conditioning, infotainment, navigation, parking assistants and the exclusive premium sound system (dependent on specification), can be easily managed via the central control panel. There is also a row of switches arranged underneath the display. They provide quick and direct access to some of the numerous functions.

Alongside the already showcased ‘IQ.Light’ and the strikingly embossed ‘Amarok’ on the tailgate, the new, vertically arranged display unit in the interior is also another eye-catching feature among the many design and engineering highlights in Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ new pick-up. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ design brings these highlights to the fore in true cinematic style. The ‘floating’ central control element is on show here.

Following in the wheel tracks of success

Over 830,000 units of the Amarok have been sold to date in Europe, South America, South Africa and Oceania. The strengths of the successful premium pick-up from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles: supreme drive systems, high load capacities, systematic functionality and a design the cuts a good figure both on and off the road.

The brand from Hannover is further developing these strengths with the new generation. The new Amarok will launch as of the end of 2022 in the first few countries with double cab and four doors (DoubleCab), and in some individual markets with a twodoor single cab (SingleCab).

VOLKSWAGEN MULTIVAN NAMED MOST PRACTICAL TOW CAR AT WHAT CAR? 2022 TOW CAR AWARDS

Posted By Eastend Coachworks and written by Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles Published Date: 16-06-22

New Volkswagen Multivan awarded title of Most Practical Tow Car
Judges praised towing performance, practicality, and comfort
The What Car? 2022 Tow Car Awards celebrate the best vehicles for towing capabilities in the UK
Awards are decided by an expert judging panel of editors at What Car?

Milton Keynes, UK - Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles' new Multivan has been named Most Practical Tow Car at the What Car? 2022 Tow Car Awards.

Judges praised the Volkswagen Multivan for its strong towing capabilities and stable driving experience. The vehicle was additionally commended for practicality and flexibility, particularly highlighting the spacious interior and the flexible passenger seating.

The annual What Car? Tow Car Awards celebrate the best towing vehicles available to purchase in the UK market. Vehicles undergo rigorous testing, trailing multiple scenarios to test towing capabilities and measure how the car holds the road. Additional considerations to determine winners include solo driving, practicality and buying and owning.

The chosen model by judges was the Mulitvan Style with 2.0 TSI 204 PS engine and DSG gearbox. It features a clever interior design layout which provides ample space for passengers and luggage, with up to seven seats and a sliding table, which can be moved across the entire length of the car.

Steve Huntingford, editor at What Car?, said: "It may look more like a campervan than a tow car, but the Volkswagen Multivan is one of the surprise packages of the year's test. The petrol engine isn't an obvious choice for towing (there are also diesels and hybrids), but it offers strong performance. Most big 4x4s are more at home pulling away uphill, but few can match the practicality and flexibility offered by the Multivan." Daniel Plank, Multivan Product Manager at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, said: "We are delighted that the Volkswagen Multivan has been named the Most Practical Tow Car this year. Our engineers worked extremely hard to make the Multivan as flexible and versatile as possible and this award is testament to that - from its powerful and varied engine lineup to the spacious and comfortable interior. It's great to see judges recognise this and we hope our customers enjoy it as much as they did." The all-new Multivan went on sale in January, with prices starting from £44,410 (RRP OTR inc VAT). The Multivan is the replacement for the current Volkswagen Caravelle, and features a fresh design, more flexible interior, improved connectivity, and, for the first time, a plug-in hybrid option.
