For those watching outside of Europe, the Ranger Raptor sold here in Europe has less power than the one sold in other countries. 292 in Europe, versus 397 elsewhere. We can blame EU regulations for that. But the Ranger Raptor’s amazing off road capabilities is the most important thing. Also, the torque for the European Ranger Raptor is actually 491Nm. 583Nm for the rest of the world.

Amarok reminded me of my 2019 GTI when I had the Neuspeed tuning box for more HP but no DSG tune. The gearbox was a gongshow. Something about the VW gearboxes when u add a bunch of HP and TQ but don't tube them. It's almost as if the VW engineers purposely make the gearbox work right, but only with stock power. It was so bad I did a DSG tune and voided all of my warranty just so I didn't have to get rid of the car out of frustration. It was that bad.
