DRAG RACE: Volkswagen Amarok 3,0 V6 TDI vs DTE-Tuned Toyota Hilux 2,8 GD-6 

A stage 3 tuned Amarok will do 0-100km in a little over 5 seconds. Most sports hatches would struggle with that

interesting, but they will also have to put the Toyota hilux GR V6 stock to compete with a VW Amarok stock I think this would be a fairer race (both diesel or gasoline).

Great video

Tuned vs stock? Plugging DTE mos

So funny how you need a stage 6 to overtake a Amarok😂

What was the 1/4 time for the Amarok and Hilux respectively?

Well, I understand the stance of this race, look at what that Amarok is still doing, stock😳😳 I would like to get your guidance on where I can get an ACTIC 35 look for my Toyota, I already have the huge 17inch wheels, I need the side panels..

That Hilux was over fueling horribly on take off, dumping clouds of black smoke. In that state of tune, that engine ain’t long for this world.

I was expecting a vast comparison given the tuned T- Hilux. + 40kw Just goes to show the Amarok is still the by far best vehicle of the two - Amarok no tune necessary, but imagine Rocky with + 40kw....yaaahaaa👍

No meu ver talvez seja um vídeo pra promover a Hilux, pois na realidade não existe picape mais rápida que a Amarok v6.

Wouldve been good if you guys did a rolling race

If it’s not a fast and furious themed edit it’s a 1940’s soap opera edit. Almost there guys -

lets see how long that Toyota will be reliable with the tune-up.

Hilux don't have a V6 Diesel, so that's why they tuned the 4 cylinder of the Hilux to get plus- minus the same KW and Torque as the VW

V6 vs V6 please and provide the 1/4 mile times please

Even when it's stock, the Hilux is always better than any pick up

What ever it takes for the toyota dreamers to have a win u should start the drag with a 10 min involuntary dpf burn off

I dont see the point of using a tuned car against a stock car couldn't you use a v6 version of the hilux

And the times ? 0100 and 1/4 mile,??

Thanks ma'am

Over the weekend I was driving my Fiesta ST and a Hilux wanted to pass on my left side (I live in SA) I geared down and opened up and simply could not get away from it for the few seconds he was behind me. But it must have been something like this. Couldn't believe the power.

What exhuast set up does the hilux have? Stock downpipe? Catless downpipe? 1 small box?

Is the amarok the 165 kw on or 195 kW on

Guys can you drag race the Hilux with the 4.0 engine with this amarok?🤔 I want to see something

Who knew if you take a modified bakkie and a stock bakkie, that the modified one would be quicker🤣

2.8L Toyota cannot defeat 3.0L V6Amarok in speed. Not just possible may be in picking which is less than 10seconds. The rest only wish to see V6 vs V6

El Amarok no es mejor que el Hilux todos lo sabemos, pero definitivamente el Hilux no es más rápido que el Amarok en este video mienten!

Yeah but still only a 4 cylinder, like to see it in a caravan pull up a long hill on a warm day !

Why is the race track so short?

When using a modded ( especially one that is only been on the market for a month) you should at least inform the viewers that your warranty will be voided.

Tengo un Hilux y es correlona aun que motor grande y con gran desplazamiento no creo que corra igual que una pick up V6

Now tune the Amarok and compare....

Why is no one even talking about the boost button at the bottom of the gass pedal in the amarok ??

Not exactly up to Car's normal standard when testing vehicles. Rookie drivers, poor launches...A bit of a shame that you guys posted this!

My father's friend owned a dealer and i've noticed that the rangers although they have nice power they'ra just not as sturdy as the hiluxes. And the only vw powerplants that are reliable are the ones I like the TDI 265-6 from the amarok and the ea113 from the mk6 ed35 mk5 gti and the audi s3 and rline golf. vw generally have a reliability problem and ford's motors will melt if you tune them because they're being pushed from the factory I really felt like ford has lost it's way, but what toyota does is undertune all their motors to ensure a longer lifespan even their factories setup is focused towards ensuring reliability and I commend them for that, that's why I'm a toyota fan. I'm only 18 years old I've loved cars since I was in diapers, and I want to become a fitter as to better understand the mechanics of these machines. But i'd love to become a car reporter, a real car reporter and cars.co.za is the right platform but I can't help feeling like they're missing something, eventhough they make great content. 0605653053

This is AT8 ?

Till the toyota Dpf puts it in limp mode

Please don't try to make a quick turn with Hilux

Use the v6 version of the hilux

Is it that hard to find hilux 4.0 v6 bakkies to do comparisons with???

We want to see V6 against V6

And what's the point of this test? Stock VS modified.

However HILUX corresponds consistent of its life as well, its proper car for Earth, viva Japan.

Where can I get the DTE tune for my Legend 50 @care magazine ?.

What is the brand and model of chip ?

La Toyota por más mejora q tenga jamás saldría más rápido q la Amarok. Puro verso

Se tivesse um piloto bom na Amarok ela tinha ganhado

Hilux sul africana muito rápida demais

Show us Toyota Hilux 4.0 V6 vs amaroka V6 drug race please

Why not use the v6 version of the GD-6 ?

TUNE THE AMAROK AND SEE HOW IT GOES. AND GET THAT GUY OUT OF THE AMAROK AND GET SOMEONE WHO CAN DRIVE.

People stage 6 is just the tunes name, the Hilux isn't actually stage 6, that would be turbo upgrade and full exhaust, engine internals with NOS and weight reduction and rebuilt gearbox LOL this is just a plug in and play ECU unit that is called stage 6

Maybe try an put a Man behind the wheel of the Amarok

Fue la Hilux que yso el ruido porque si fue la Hilux eso es una bestia

I have seen the Amarok in Namibia. 🇳🇦

Except the 2.8 Toyota engines are having a class action as they are failing. My mate is on his second engine under warranty. Try tuning the V6 Diesel, and see what happens.

Im just wonder what engine lifespan and all other items related to massive power increase will be with such higher outputs. There is a reason why Toyotas are detuned when straight out of the factory.

Besides Toyota's global vision is unique...if they had that VW attitude Bugatti would be put to shame and that stock Bugatti killers carbon emissions would be skyrocketed

No way the Toyota hilux can beat the Volkswagen Amarok with a3.0 v6 diesel engine verses a2.8 4 cylinders.

How can you tune one car and not the other?

Sinceramente muy inexperto el muchacho que maneja la amarok

This was just a commercial for the dte chip. you see what they did there !!

The guy with the Amarok CAN"T drive, go away !!!!

In fact there is a 2jz GTE hilux on RU-vid... Nice to bring that one here...it also costs less than that amarok in build costs together with srx model costs

Respect Toyota😅😅it's a big power machine

Did he even uset he boost button ??

A 4wd versus a pretend 4 x 4. Pointless exercise.

Toyota power 💪

Die moffies test nou bakkies. 🤪

But they gave the moffie to drive the amarok 😔

This is not a fair race. Clearly it is sponsored by DTE. You should have equally chip tuned both vehicles or use a standard Hilux V6.

Yeh tha fuckn luxy

Pointless 4x4 test... These cars not meant for this...

Fact is, Hilux will last 10 times longer... its called LEGEND 50 for a reason. Amarok was born yesterday..lol.

V6 against V4 not fair.

عيب على فوكس واجن شركه لها قرن بتصنع السيارات ومحرك ٦ سرندل وتجي شركه اقل منها عمر و٤ سرندل واقل منها سعه ٢٨٠٠ وتطلع عليها لاكن فعلا تويوتا ابدعتتتتت

The VW for a VW

Yeah you need to tune up ecu just to beat the amarok

So you need to tune the hilux to keep up with Amarok. I thought Bakkies were made to work on the Land. So when are you going to test the Lamborghini and the Bugatti transporting farm implements from the barn to the land.??????

Let’s see what the v6 195kw maped would do to that toyota.

The is no use of racing when the GD6 is tuned.

Jajaja que chistoso en cuanto a reacción y velocidad todo el mundo sabe que la amarok es la mejor... Asi que no inventen

Ganó el conductor del Toyota porque piso mejor y más rápido en la salida y eso en los piques lo es todo , pero las maquinas se vieron iguales

Ill have a crack at the stage 6 Hilux in my custom tuned 2.0 amarok :)

They just don't know how to do it from factory 😂

Only one run? 🤔

Why would you buy a offroad pickup truck for drag raceing ?

Find it hard to believe that the Hilux only had a chip and free flow. Looks like bad launches at play.

Now do a stage 6 upgrade on the Amarok and race again

Why race a tuned hi.lux to a stock amarok?🤦‍♂️

Can someone put an actual driver behind the wheel of the Amarok. This is ridiculous!

YAY Hilux won

amarok has a much bigger engine it's just fair

tune the amarok to stage 6 and see

Nope can’t do it

Everybody knows that this is false , the amorok v6 is the fastest mid size in the market... toyota is just a good work tool ...

Wow , just looking at the comments, no one will ever be pleased. Its a chipped Hilux vs a standard Amarok. Fulls top. If you dont like it , move on. NO ONE forced you to watch the clip

Lucky that Hilux was tuned! Amarok would have won

Faltou uma peça atrás do volante da Amarok

I give that hilux 1 year before it breaks and there will be no warranty. Toyota aren't what they used to be but everyone can't see passed the brand.
