Before we compare the Ultimate Amarok and Ranger, let us tell you what has been changed on the Amarok. 

Ultimate looks:

The Amarok has never been a bad looking vehicle. It has a clean and classy look to it. Volkswagen has improved on this with the addition of:

• silver wing mirror covers
• darkened rear lights with LED number plate illumination
• polished 19-inch 'Cantera' alloy wheels
• special ‘Ultimate’ lettering
• silver-coloured design underbody guard and a styling bar as well as sill sidebars in chrome
• Bi-xenon headlights with integrated LED lighting strip come as standard on the Amarok Ultimate

The Bi-xenon headlights give the Amarok not only improved lighting but an improved visual appearance.

Ultimate comfort:

The Amarok Ultimate has been fitted, as standard with:

• Park Distance Control with Rear Assist reversing camera
• electric folding and heated wing mirrors
• heated front seats in either Vienna or Alcantara leather
• Bluetooth radio and CD
• rain sensor with intermittent wipers
• auto diming rear view mirror
• special velour floor mats

Seeing as though the Amarok Ultimate is based on the top-of-the-range Amarok, it not only features a 2.0 Biturbo TDI 132kW/420Nm engine but it also makes use of an 8-speed Automatic transmission as well as 4Motion four-wheel drive.

Now this isn’t a beauty contest, we want to know about power. How does the top line Amarok compare to the latest top line Ford Ranger? The Ford does offer a host of features which you can read about here.
