Volkswagen Australia has refreshed its Amarok range for the 2025 model year, led by the introduction of the limited-edition Amarok 10 Deserts Edition. 

Priced from $69,990 drive-away, this new variant is limited to just 300 units nationwide and features a 40mm suspension lift, increasing ground clearance to 275mm. The off-road-ready vehicle rides on Continental ATR tyres fitted to 17-inch satin black wheels and includes VW underbody protection and all-weather floor mats. The exterior is distinguished by a black sports bar, soft tonneau cover, and black ‘10 Deserts’ decal that stretches across both the front and rear doors.

Alongside the launch of the 10 Deserts Edition, Volkswagen has announced several updates across the broader MY25 Amarok line-up. The Amarok Style, PanAmericana and Aventura variants now come standard with 230V power sockets (Australian plug pattern), backed by an integrated 400W inverter. Trailer Assist is now a standard feature on these models as well, and the Rear Traffic Alert system has been revised to integrate with the trailer support functionality.

VW has also introduced new ‘Tray’ cab-chassis variants. The Amarok Core, Life and Style are now available with a factory-fitted alloy tray, measuring 1900mm in external width, 1835mm in internal width, 1650mm in internal length, and tipping the scales at 132kg. This alloy tray will also be offered as a dealer-fitted accessory across the broader Amarok range and will cost an additional $4000. A steel tray weighing 243kg is also available as a dealer-fit option.
