The New Amarok Will Be Made in Argentina With an Investment of US$ 580 Million. The Model Premieres in 2027 With Local Design, SAIC Platform, and Total Focus on the South American Consumer.

Attention, lovers of rugged trucks with a refined soul: the new Amarok is coming. And it’s coming in full force. Volkswagen confirmed that the next generation of its midsize truck will be launched in 2027, produced exclusively in Argentina, with a revamped DNA to fit perfectly into the South American market.

The investment is serious: US$ 580 million to transform the General Pacheco plant into an innovation hub on wheels. And the foundation of the project? An unlikely (and powerful) alliance with the Chinese at SAIC, who provided the platform of the Maxus T90 to bring the new model to life — but with Volkswagen adding all the local flavor.

What Changes With the New Amarok?

Practically everything. But calm down: the robust essence of the Amarok remains. The difference is that now it will speak with an Argentine accent, use Chinese components, and wear a design drawn in Brazil. Yes, the new look will be 100% developed by Volkswagen’s Design Center in South America — which means more aggressive lines, modern solutions, and that tropical touch that only those who live on dirt roads understand.

It may seem unusual, but the partnership with SAIC — Chinese giant — was the way found to accelerate the development of the new Amarok without depending on the European global project (which won’t come here). The Maxus T90 platform serves as a structural base, but all the engineering and dynamic tuning will be in the hands of the Volkswagen team.

In other words: it will have that Amarok feel, yes. But with a new heart, updated chassis, and much more connectivity on board. There are still no official details about the engine, but it’s quite likely that the new generation will maintain diesel options and, perhaps, even an electrified version on the future radar.

And Until Then, What Happens With the Current Amarok?

It will stay strong on the track. The current version, with a V6 turbo diesel engine, continues to be produced until the successor’s launch. It’s the typical “hang tight, more is on the way.” The 2024/25 Amarok still has market power and should maintain momentum in Brazilian dealerships, especially for being the only V6 diesel in the segment in several regions.

What Changes With the New Amarok?

And Until Then, What Happens With the Current Amarok?

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

Brazil will harvest a record crop of up to 357 million tons of grains, but it does not have the capacity to store a large part of it. The storage deficit has reached the highest level in history and is equivalent to almost the entire production of Argentina.

Four times faster than the Concorde, capable of taking passengers from New York to London in less than an hour at Mach 5.5, and with an engine that switches from turbojet to ramjet mid-flight at Mach 3.5, the Hermeus Quarterhorse went from paper to its first flight in just 19 months.

Under nearly 2 kilometers of ice in Antarctica, scientists have discovered an ancient landscape sculpted by rivers up to 60 million years ago, the size of Wales, preserved as a time capsule that could help predict the advance of ice towards the ocean.

She started by collecting oyster shells from restaurants and today she has already accumulated more than 10 tons to restore reefs, recover coastal habitats, and demonstrate how a common waste can become a tool for ocean conservation.

Bricklayers off the scaffolding? New system uses autonomous drones to position bricks and apply adhesive in the air, creating walls with two flying robots working as a team.

With only R$ 50 in his pocket and a dream, the 26-year-old Tocantins native Willian Gomes left Tocantins and has already cycled over 4,000 kilometers towards Ushuaia, at the southern tip of Argentina, without accepting a single ride in eight months.

Has the war with artificial intelligence already begun? The US Army tests armed robots in the Moroccan desert, uses drones with explosives, and showcases a system capable of reducing military decisions from hours to just 3 minutes.

The invisible flaw that protects banks, passwords, and messages may be numbered after a quantum experiment transforms imperfect randomness into numbers impossible to predict.

The labor shortage has changed its face in Brazil: companies hire 80% more, but workers stay only 6.8 months in the job, the service market becomes a “revolving door,” and businesses spend increasingly more to train teams that soon leave.

Mitsubishi confirms the triumphant return of a car beloved by Brazilians that was discontinued after almost 40 years, based on the Triton, 4×4, and targets rival Toyota Land Cruiser in a plan of 13 SUVs.
