Tachoblog can (almost) exclusively present the first official pictures of Volkswagen’s new pick-up the Amarok.

According to the press blurb, ‘it is durable, robust and can tackle any road, no matter how tricky’ but from January 2010, the Volkswagen Amarok will have to prove those claims from January 2010 during the world’s toughest rally.

Volkswagen will field five Race Touaregs as the team bids to defend one of the most challenging international motorsport events, the Dakar Rally.

A Volkswagen Caddy Maxi has set a new world record by travelling 9,630 miles non-stop across the Transeurasia route from the Atlantic coast in Portugal to the Pacific coast in Russia in eight days, 13 hours and 30 minutes.

Tachoblog can reveal the first details of the new Volkswagen Transporter range of vans, kombi, chassis cabs and window vans which inclide a new refined exterior design plus significant advances in comfort, safety and refinement.

Yesterday, 30 June 2009, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles produced the one millionth vehicle of the T5 series today at the Hanover plant. The vehicle is a Transporter Van 1.9-litre TDI 62 kW in Tornado Red.

Thanks to worldcarfans.com, Tachoblog can bring you these spy shots of the new Volkswagen Caddy and T5.

Tachoblog can (almost) exclusively announce that the new Volkswagen pickup, showcased as a concept last year and due to be launched in Europe in 2010, is to be called the Amarok.

Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel aren’t the only drivers in the Red Bull Racing Formula One team. Its other drivers rely on a dependable fleet of vans and people carriers from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles for delivering parts to races across Europe, often at short notice, and for taking people to and from airports or events.
