2024 Ford Ranger vs VW Amarok - Which one should you buy?

There are 8 Bakkies 😮

One should only own these vehicles under warranty
If not it will be very expensive

Just another moron driving while throwing his hands around all over the place a great message for young drivers.

Both rubbish, drive it for 200k kilos and test them again, Toyota boys will always win 😂

There are many meaningful differences from suspension tune to software and It is my view after doing months of due diligence that you're either being intentionally obtuse or lack a comprehensive understanding of the differences between the two and EVERY SINGLE reviewer from across every country in which they sell would agree with my assessment, other of course, than yourself as a standalone.
No sub here on the grounds that I must, therefore, conclude by broadly doubting your understanding of the class.
Thank you for your time.

If the Ford was a VW I would say buy the VW but because the VW is a Ford I say buy the Ford.

Previous Ranger welldone bakkies drive them as K9 mv in SAPS the best ever one was Clubcab 2.5 TDI 4x2. Great stuff unfortunately after 300000km mother nature take a good chance wheel burst on way to farm attack and our "lovely gravel " roads and over turned. No injuries to myself and K9 partner. Settle for next best bakkie for gravel Nissan NP300 s/c 4x4 ...... yes could take a new Hilux .....that hates gravel roads , as a comm give it to some other memb who likes Hilux. For info I retired last year Nissan currently 155000km and 2.7i Hilux just over 320000 km includes complete enjine overhaul on 1400000.

Keep the AMAFORD and RANROK ...... not like both as a HIGHLY VW PERSON AND SUPPORTER , drive since 1983 my own ( before my late dad VW/Audi) , Passat , Golf 1 GLS , GTi , Golf 2 1.8 GTI and 2.0 l 16v , 2 Jetta CLi 2 and 3 , 2 Golf VR6 , Audi Avant 2.6 , B7 2.0l , and Golf GTI 5 DSG. Current AMAROK 132kw , BiTDI 4MOTION 8 speed auto. VW keep your AMAFORD ; will not even to a freely swap to a Amaford. WHY ......
IT'S NOT A ORIGINAL VOLKSWAGEN. 😢😢😢😢😢

Ford interior looks very cheap and plastic in person. If you worry about those kind of things rather go with Amarok.

Ford ranger more easily to replace repair and maintenance compare to Volkswagen amarok but i prefer Mitsubishi Triton is the best very affordable cost but intelligent engineering futuristic

I love the Amorok but VW it’s to expensive look what happened to the merc

Any dust issues in the cabin while driving on gravel on these 2 bakkies?

I still pick the Amarok. I choose to be different.😅

Feel like Mercedes should have done the same thing not to copy n paste everything down to the interior of the Nissan

Great video and giving informed decision-making.
But can you please test the new JAC T9. Interested in your opinion

Ford is monstre

The best presentation 🎉

Amarok any day without a fail

I take delivery of my new Amarok Style Ute in a weeks time.

Amarok comes with 5 year 100k full motorplan, service is an option on Ford!!!

these are semi-bakkies for sissies

Nee vir ford nee vir amarok JA vir Toyota 😂😂

Good day
Wil it be possible to test the following bakkies on lower en of the scale
Isuzu Dmax 1.9 single cab, Ford Ranger 2.0 single cab, GWM P series single cab.
The aim of test would be to prove if a smaller diesel engine be able to work on farming will full load at the back.
Also test bakkies with load to drive up an hill.
We are used to big engine can easily carry 1 to with ease.

Just re map the Isuzu

So are the Amarok body spares made by VW Germany, VW Uitenhage, Ford USA or Ford SA?

amarok !

Bigger is better is the mantra in US with their "trucks" and were going the same way - getting impractically big for the SA market

Bigger is better

Bigger is better

As an original amarok v6 owner i feel betrayed with the clone.

I always wanted to go to the vw dealership and tell them i never knew they sold ford products

Toyota and ford period..both .but in the karoo on the R355 I did record time to tankwa at 140 at times nice and smooth...the Toyota at that speed with the same GRABBERS AT3 was not as stable at that speed on the R355 could be fords better AIRO DIYNIMICS .through die hel i find THE TOYOYA BETTER TO HANDLE 😅. BUT unfortunately ford is my first choice......plain and simple for some reason ford can take more PAK..

is that the spare wheel on the ranger?

Thanks!! Enjoyed the video!! Really good conclusion!👍🏼

If you want to drive to some dream destinations, then both of these will do. But if you want to drive back in one piece, get the D-Max.

Buy a Hilux.

Ford. NO service plans 😐

😂ciro went straight to clone 😅

Ford is the most powerful guys for real 🤞❤️‍🩹🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I hope VW has gone extra mile to improve the vehicle security of Amarok. Rangers are getting carjacked or stolen so easily which for me is bit of a concern.

That amarok is the ugliest thing ever

Then it shouldn't be wrong to say mk5 supra is a z4

Compare the previous amarok please

Guys amarok style it compete with ranger wildtrak. XLT it compete with XLT im sure chiro made mistakes and is very necessary for him to revisit his statement

I don't fully agree that VW made enough of a difference on the interior, especially the Dash... I feel VW should have installed their Tuareg dash. Of course, that would not work with the Ford Computers but then they should have at least designed a "Ford" compatible Dashboard that looks and feels like a Tuareg Dashboard! That's my honest opinion. If feel, that would have given the Amarok that final distinction that it is missing.

I prefer the Ranger interior

Hopeful not to come across "negatively", I am also hopeful they've sorted out the security system of the Ranger, especially. Great info video

Both using the VW Dieselgate 2.0 TDI

brilliant video
