Seems the Design Vision GTI isn't the only concept the German company will bring to the GTI Festival in Wörthersee, Germany. We will also get to see a more powerful version of the brands pickup, the Amarok Power Pickup, that most likely will never get into production.
The pickup actually looks cool, and kinda remembers the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor without the off-road capability, but if we compare it with the teasers that were shown, it ends up being a little bit disappointing.
Powering this concept is a 3.0 liter V6 turbocharged diesel engine that produces 272PS (268hp or 200kW) and 600Nm (443lb/ft) of torque. This is more than enough to to accelerate this heavy vehicle, with a permanent all-wheel drive system, up to 100km/h (62mph) in a decent 7.9 seconds. The gearbox is an automatic with 8 speeds.
The fenders have been widened by 60mm (2.36 inches) so the 22-inch wheels fit more easily. The front and rear bumpers are new, and so is the side skirts and the interior, that looks it could be in any sports car.
