Volkswagen has discontinued the well-regarded Amarok pickup it launched in 2011. It’s understood it will come back in 2022 as a joint venture with Ford’s Ranger.

The Irish Farmers Journal understands that all new units which were available in Ireland have now been sold.

Volkswagen’s 4Motion all-wheel-drive system is available on the T-Roc, Tiguan and Touareg models.

The Tiguan and Tiguan Allspace models are Volkswagen’s most popular models.

A revised version of the Tiguan will arrive later this year, but for now its 4Motion range starts from the 2.0l TDI Highline with 150hp for €44,095.

The Tiguan Allspace is the seven-seater version. 4Motion in the Tiguan Allspace starts at the €50,650 2.0-litre TDI Highline model with 190hp.

All Tiguans have a towing capacity of 2,220kg, with this increasing to 2,500kg in some 4Motion diesel models.

The flagship SUV of the Volkswagen range is the Touareg.

Despite a new plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and a high-spec R model with 333hp set to arrive later in the year, the 3.0-litre TDI with either 231 or 286hp makes up the bulk of sales.
