Theophilus Chin Renders Second Generation Amarok

Now that the so-called ‘Chicken Tax’ is apparently on the way out, the door just may open for vehicles like Volkswagen’s Amarok and the Toyota Hilux to become available on US shores. But by the time everything goes through, we’d likely see a second generation Amarok at US dealerships (if at all), so what would that look like? Automotive Manipulator Theophilus Chin has decided to give it a go.

Heavily relying on the Crossblue Concept and current Amarok as a starting point, Chin has effectively given the current Amarok a very significant facelift. Employing the flared arches and high beltline from Volkswagen’s most recent SUV concepts, this Amarok render is without a doubt more muscular than the current model. And while we’re admittedly in the dark when it comes to when the Amarok will eventually see a massive overhaul, we certainly wouldn’t be mad if it turned out like this.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
