A handful of images have surfaced showing Volkswagen’s meaty Amarok R-Style Concept which will be putting in an appearance at Worthersee.

Looking more muscular thanks to an aggressive front fascia with large air intakes, 60 mm-wider bodywork comprising of widened fenders and side skirts, a larger rear bumper with carbon fibre diffuser and imposing tailpipes, the Concept rides on 22-inch alloy wheels wrapped in 295/35 tyres.

Moving inside, this sport-themed SUV gains a black, red and silver GTI-style cabin including a sports steering wheel, leather-trimmed bucket seats and carbon fibre coating on the dashboard and central tunnel.

Underneath the hood there’s a 3-litre V6 turbo diesel powerplant, which is good for 203 kW (272 hp) and 600 Nm of torque. Mated to an eight-speed automatic the all-wheel drive Amarok cracks 100 km/in under eight seconds.
