Next-gen VW Amarok pickup could make it to U.S.
Volkswagen is planning to extend its lineup in 2018 with a possible pickup.

One of the biggest reveals at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show was the VW Atlas – a three-row, family-friendly SUV built at the company’s Chattanooga, Tennessee, plant in the U.S. While the bold new SUV will undoubtedly make an impact in the region, another vehicle could join the lineup alongside it in the next few years.

About flippin time. But it has to be competitively priced, or it's a no go.

Cant wait to see the faces of ranchers and farmers when they see another unreliable appliance from VAG as a replacement for their American trucks! It has taken the Japanese a lot to get in some of their garages already, so just imagine.

Indeed.

And when you think about it, only Toyota has been successful with the Tacoma, but the Tundra still doesn't threaten the "Big 3" trucks.

Nissan peddles outdated garbage (Frontier) or restyled outdated garbage (Titan). Mazda, Mitsubishi, and Isuzu = DOA. Honda? Laughable!

Why would anyone choose an Amarok over a Tacoma, a Canyon, or a Colorado. Ford has a much better chance of relaunching the Ranger than VW has of breaking into the pickup wars
