Milton Keynes, 9 September 2026 – Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles has today opened UK order books for the Amarok Dark Label Special Edition pick-up.

The Amarok has built a reputation as one of the best all-round pick-ups in the UK – combining genuine off-road capability with a premium interior and on-road refinement. The Amarok Dark Label Special Edition further accentuates these qualities, adding stylish and practical features to create an eye-catching design.

The roof rails, rear styling bars, side steps, exterior mirrors, bumpers and door handles are all gloss black, as are the X-style front fascia, grill insert and skid plate. The 20-inch alloy wheels are a new matte black finish. It is available in metallic black, metallic blue, or metallic grey – all at no extra cost.

Inside, all-black ArtVelours microfleece fabric seats complete the look for a striking result. This adds to the premium cabin experience, with the 10-inch digital cockpit and 12-inch infotainment system, as well as market-leading safety and assistance technology, making it a comfortable and pleasant space in any environment.

It also comes with practical additions, including a factory-fitted load liner and sliding load cover.

More than an aesthetic choice, the Amarok Dark Label Special Edition is a hard-working and practical commercial vehicle. The 3.0-litre V6 diesel engine, paired to a 10-speed automatic gearbox, delivers peak power of 240PS and torque of 600Nm. It offers an impressive payload of over 1,000kg. To ensure confidence in any surface, the Dark Label Special Edition has always-on 4MOTION all-wheel drive capability and comes with a rear differential lock included as standard.

Prices start from £47,870¹ available from today. To celebrate order books opening, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is offering a number of attractive finance packages, including a Contract Hire plan starting from just £439 per month.²

The Amarok Dark Label is also available from £539 per month on Solutions Personal Contract Plan.³

The entire Amarok line-up, including the Dark Label Special Edition, also benefits from Volkswagen’s enhanced warranty and service plan, the 5+ Promise, at no extra cost. This comprises five services, three MOTs, a five-year Warranty and five years’ Roadside Assistance.⁴

The Dark Label Special Edition is the newest addition to the Amarok family – joining the Style, PanAmericana, and Aventura variants. More information on the Volkswagen Amarok range can be found here: https://www.volkswagen-vans.co.uk/en/new-vehicles/new-amarok.html
