I had a chance today to have a good look at the ute. It is very good in my opinion. I normally drive Mercedes and can see a lot of components are from the Merc parts bin. The vehicle vital components are German Bosch but the vehicle is assembled in Argentina. German Bosch electronics are very reliable and no cause for concern. The safety aspects alone make this vehicle very appealing. Eric

It's going to be an interesting year if you're a ute buyer. VW Amarok, the new Ford Ranger, and the updated Navara with a new V6 550nm diesel.

I just drove the new VW Touareg TD6 around Europe for 2 weeks. If the Ute is anything like it then it would be awesome. The Germans know how to design cars.

When I looked at them before they were released they were only showing a gruntier version of the polo's 4 pot.
So what have they actually been released with?
