Description
The Amarok is a 4x4 unlike any other. To prove there's no greater force, we put it to the ultimate test against the forces of nature - Earth, Water, Wind & Fire.
Rugged mountains, helicopters dumping payload after payload, storming V8 wind turbines, gauntlets of fire (with flamethrowers), sand that could swallow a city, sweltering heat, gravel roads, precision drivers with a point to prove, we threw it all at the Amarok, and what we're left with is the undeniable truth - The Amarok is a 4xForce.
Because we live in a real world, with real challenges, not a single bit of AI was used in the making of this test. Every single stunt and act of defiance was done in camera, at the Klipbokkop Mountain Reserve in the Western Cape.
