VW Amarok V6 v Ford Ranger V6 Dragparison: Drag race, sound test & 0-100!

Рет қаралды 734,057

Күн бұрын

As promised, here is a set of performance runs and then a drag race between the 2023 Ford Ranger Sport V6 and the 2023 Volkswagen Amarok W580X! It's much closer than we thought it would be!
Some things to note - this is the only spec of Amarok we could get our hands on. Despite all of the equipment it has on it as part of the W580X pack, it's still around 50kg lighter than the Ranger.
Big shout out to Berwick Volkswagen for helping us out with sourcing the Amarok! They have stacks of these available, so if you're in the market for any Volkswagen products, please have a chat with Mervyn at Berwick Volkswagen!

Amarok is quicker in “D” than “S”. It’s quicker again with manual shifts. “S” holds the gears well past peak torque. You should be able to get another 3 tenths out of it. It look though that the Ford is torque limited in the lower gears to protect the gearbox.

I've only got a 4cly amarok but i find manual shift 1st into 2nd at 3000rpm is best then shift 4300 in the rest of the gears. I fitted a bigger intercooler and bigger intake pipe. before the V6 came out i used to love overtaking other new utes and the look on their faces seeing the amarok overtake them from behind before reaching 100km/h was priceless. before the intercooler and pipe it used to back off around 3200rpm but with the mods around 3100rpm you could feel it pulling harder all the way to 4500 cut off. it really felt more like a gas engine and it was hard to remember to up-shif. i think if the ecu was set to rev higher it would pull to 5000 before losing puff

In the UK the fully emissionised VW V6 in the Amarok has not got the best of reliability reputations. It’s the emission system that has failed multiple times with two of my friends. One of them was on contract hire and it was out of commission so many times and for so long, he terminated the contract. The other was bought slightly use but with warranty and they can’t get parts for long times and when they do, it only sorts it for a few months. Oddly, I’ve not heard of this issue with the engine in Audi cars. New Amaros have not been sold in the UK for about a year, possibly longer, for some reason. Used values are very high.

Lots of comments suggesting "just do this", or "use this setting", or "even out the tyres", or "equalise the weights exactly" etc. If you have to pump lots of settings, and configure more parameters, it's not just a stock "Turn on and go in default" comparison then. It's a test for those that are chomping at the bit to win. That hardly happens out in the real world. Maybe the Ranger could be faster if it could skip some gears. Maybe it'd be faster in other driving modes. Likely would be better in towing acceleration at speed. Lots of "other" ways to compare the two. Either way, it's not a lot of difference. You'd be pretty foolish to opt for an older Amarok solely for "can beat a new Ranger by 0.2s to 100kph" though! There's so much more to it, and literally no one else would care. You'd have to be a fairly shallow person to make that your justification for owning a decade old model. This was for fun, but not a scale tipping consumer review. If the Ranger had been 2 seconds slower, that might have been concerning. Even if it had been a second faster; that would have been seen as "to be expected". 0.2s is reaction speed difference for most people. Certainly if you were at the lights where 2 lanes merge to 1 on the other side, the driver who reacts faster will get the right of way. Great review for the sake of clearing any doubt, but in no way an outcome that would sway a buyer.

@glenns7175 Жыл бұрын

VW is a good engine and good car, the ranger also now looks ugly im my opinion so im not rushing out to buy one anymore. But the ford engine is quite old also, just new for the Ranger. Power is power, one makes a little more torque, the other a little more KW, one is 8 speed and one is 10 speed. The 10 speed might be better for fuel economy but it might not be the best in 0-100. We don't know if the Ford may be the fastest with a load with total weight of both being equal and there are variations between different cars, another ranger or amarok may perform slightly better or worst than another. The Ford is also engineered for newer emissions regulations so much more power can be had with aftermarket tuning. The difference in performance in this test is quite small as expected as the power is near enough the same but there is a weight difference. Take out the extra safety, strengthening and low range gearbox and the weight would be reduced closer to the amarok and the performance would improve.

@@billyp4850 did you watch the video? They stated the weights, Amarok is like 50kg lighter, but is on at tyres that's also larger than standard for the rest of the range.

Looking forward to the top of the line VW versus the Raptor, what should be a a good drag.

I kinda see 10 speed transmissions as needless overkill, 8 is more than enough. I don’t think VW will fiddle with the tune of the V6, I personally think they’ll just leave it as is. That said I was hoping they’d keep their own motors but I guess that’s a little unrealistic in the big picture, perhaps Ford should have adopted the VW motors. Motors developed by Land Rover doesn’t instil a hole lot of faith for me..

The tank is full in the Sport - was it full in XLT? that can add extra weight to reduce the acceleration by 0.2 second :)

The amarok will always be a bit of a modern legend but I think the rangers v6 has a huge amount of response and power tuned out of it.

I can’t wait either, CGI is an issue that still hasn’t been sorted yet. Also the 5/30 is shit. 10/40 farmers doing their own service with the tractor oil will have better luck.

Be interesting to see if VW can make the new Amarok as fast as the W580. I’d assume tyres would be the first non engineered remedy. Also I’d like to see the SQ5 up against the Macan, Anthony rated the little diesel Audi a tiny bit higher and it’d be cool (not a chance Porsche will play) to see them have a traffic light Grand Prix like this one.

The new Amarok has to use the shit Ford engine, so no, it will run just as slow as the Ranger.
