Ford vs VW - The New Ford Ranger & VW Amarok - ALL THE DIFFERENCES! | Leighton Vans

Amarok for me

[@hedydd2]

There is a tape measure on the Ranger but it is covered by the tailgate part of the bed liner.

After driving both I found that the Amarok has superior & much more comfortable seats, a vastly superior dash display, a much nicer steering wheel, nicer finishes inside and a longer tray by about 4". In fact, I absolutely hated the Ford steering wheel, the 'leather' on the Ranger was bloody terrible and the dash display I did not like. Both a very good, but I preferred the VW. Just my opinion. Cheers.

Love that! Everyone is entitled to an opinion! Thanks for sharing!

I’ll choose the Ranger every time for its practicality and thoughtful design inside and out. With the 2.0 biturbo. The instrument panel takes some getting used to but even though i’d prefer the VW version, which is also fitted to Platinum and Raptor Rangers, it really does have comprehensive information that is easily accessed when needed including navigation directions that are almost as good as a heas-up display. The Ranger also has a heated windscreen and steering wheel as standard. Ranger’s driver’s seat is very disappointing. Not because of the lower bolster, which is about the right height to allow entry and exit without excessive wear on it, but due to both inadequate padding and only a back of cushion raise and lower. My 2014 Limited variant has front and rear independent lift plus better cushioning. The Wiltrak’s headlights are also disappointing for LED’s, both being adjusted with the beam too low at the factory [easily rectified] but also with generally poor light output. It is pre-wired to trigger extra LED driving lights though which can be cheaply sourced from Amazon or eBay.

Excellent review and very detailed comparison , love both trucks , probably go with the vw been and vw t6.1 owner

In Australia the Amarok has lighting and a power outlet in the tub. Also has free 5 year servicing. You must be produce this in England. The step seems pretty good though but I am used to stepping on the tyre if I don't want to open the tailgate. Never a problem. I like the cupholders in the Ranger but don't like the front overall look. Amarok for me.

Love this! Everyone is allowed an opinion! Nice Choice!

Amarok takes it! 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍

[@samsearle4433]

I have the style with AT tyres and leather pack. Awesome car.

[@adiehull]

Really informative vlog, thank you!

[@ilovecurrytoday]

I can't decide which I'd have!

[@leighton-vans]

Hard Decisions right!?

[@samsearle4433]

What is that nudge bar on both?

[@666dualsport]

Amaroks are ruined now due to being mostly ford, damn shame, and the vw v6 was far better

[@Seashed]

Let’s see, Ford has been building pickups for 100 years, VW not so much.
