2023 Ford Ranger Sport v Volkswagen Amarok Style Comparison | Mid-spec dual-cab 4x4 utes face off

Which of these two new mid-range dual-cab 4x4 sister utes is better value? 👉 Full Review: www.carsales.com.au/editorial...
We’ve already put the flagship 2023 Volkswagen Amarok PanAmericana TDI600 up against the Ford Ranger Wildtrak V6 and Toyota HiLux Rogue, so now it’s time to see how the new VW Amarok and Ford Ranger compare in mid-spec Style TDI500 and Sport V6 guise respectively.
Just $700 separates them, but two different diesel powertrains and unique ride/handling tunes aren’t the only things that set these twins under the skin apart, as Scott Newman discovers here.

that price info is way out of date now - TDI600 Style is $5000 cheaper (drive away) than Ranger V6 sport now..

[@trevorevans7101]

Terrific review. I have driven the V6 Style Amarok and totally agree with your assessment. No doubt the Ford is just as good.

[@victorodera4175]

I've been waiting for Raptor 3.0 gasoline V6 and VW 2.3 gasoline with Mustang engine and again add old VW V6 with volswagen Engine. No one has done this test. Could you please break the waiting

[@johangreyling6479]

No drag????

[@billybob1511]

ALL Ranger and Amarok models need the option of the 2.3 petrol. Give me an XLT 2.3 Ecoboost and I'm in! Not interested in DPF and eventually Adblue.

[@GeorgeGoosen]

No adblue in the Amarok

[@victorodera4175]

Ranger 2.3 gasoline is on the pipe with hybrid plug in which is more powerful than Amarok. Search and see the teaser.

[@Marialuna1976-j9n]

Prefiro a Ford Ranger, com toda certeza ! 🇧🇷

[@tersy9862]

What a stupid comparison! Who is going to pick the 2 l over the V6 for the same price?
Also, that's an outright lie. The armorock is not spec'ed better than the wildtrak.
For one the first comes with a $4000 roller cover

Good comparison between two well overpriced and overrated vehicles....

[@nickrhodes3378]

What alternative do you suggest?
