  | Re: Volkswagen Concept Pickup (Robust) This is a very big cake VW are trying to take a bite off. Toyota's pickups are well established on the market. People love them because of their durability and pricetag. Although I like the front end of this VW pickup the rear end is terrible. It's as if the front and the rear has been designed by two different design departments. |

I think the front design was a late inclusion; remember W. Da Silva woved his magic on all the projects after the Bernhard/Gunak era  | ||

| This is actually probably an even bigger mistake than the Routan. There is absolutely no point in having this car in the US.

| It doesn't look like a VW. However, it's not the first VW pick-up, remember the last Hilux was also sold under the VW name on some markets (just like the MB Sprinter is sold under the VW name too)... Only Europe I believe. Called the VW Taro, it's an unmodified Toyota Hilux.  Was often a low, 2WD version
