Is Amarok better than Hilux?

It’s better in the HiLux, but only marginally. On the upside, the HiLux comes with rear air vents and a centre armrest, which you’ll miss out on in the Amarok. So from a presentation and functionality point of view, the HiLux is a winner here with an interior that really shines.

Which one is the fastest bakkie in South Africa?

The power and torque on offer ensure that the Amarok 3.0-litre V6 also remains the country’s fastest double cab. The previous 165 kW version was already slightly quicker than Mercedes-Benz’s ill-fated 190 kW 3.0-litre V6 X-Class, but now it has shifted the goal posts to the next level.

Is the Toyota Hilux Amarok South Africa’s most underrated double cab vehicle?

We had requested a Hilux 2.8 GD-6 4×4 Raider in automatic guise, but Toyota could not allocate us one, so settled for the manual version. The lineup includes three products that are regularly among South Africa’s top 10 sellers and one of the country’s most underrated double cabs – the Amarok.

Should the Amarok have a splash of colour in its interior?

Or at least a splash of colour to spice up the Amarok’s grey-on-black interior.

For many buyers in cities, it will be an ideal alternative to the usual off-road focused top-spec rivals.
