CarExpert's Take
Mike Costello
Senior Contributor
Mike Costello drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- As luxurious as a ute this size gets
- Punchy V6 diesel with full-time 4WD
- Really clever standard tub accessories
Misses
- Retains some low-grade interior trims
- Extended wait times, signs of markups
- No petrol option, unlike VW Amarok twin
