Volkswagen Amarok Dark Label under consideration for Australia
Volkswagen Australia is weighing the Amarok Dark Label: 3.0-litre V6 turbo-diesel, 10-speed auto and AWD, with matte-black wheels and subtle blackout styling.
Volkswagen Australia has confirmed that the Amarok Dark Label, already available in Europe, is being considered for the local market. A firm launch window has not been set.
In Europe, the Dark Label is based on the diesel Amarok. It uses a 3.0‑litre turbocharged V6 diesel rated at 250 hp and 600 Nm, paired with a 10‑speed automatic transmission and all‑wheel drive.
This specification stands apart with unique badging, 20‑inch matte‑black alloy wheels, a darker exterior treatment, and black ArtVelour microfleece upholstery.
It also adds tinted taillight lenses, a black tailgate handle, and Dark Label emblems on the steering wheel and front floor mats. The available colours are midnight black, dark grey, and vivid blue.
Judging by the details, the Dark Label leans into a factory‑custom look that feels cohesive rather than showy. The V6 diesel and 10‑speed auto suggest an easygoing, confident character, while the restrained styling gives the Amarok a quietly assertive edge.
