“The eight-hour journey to Mozambique through the Kosi Bay border post proved to be comfortable and car-like for the front seat occupants, but the three at the back were more squeezed and expressed relief whenever we stopped for breaks.”

The Amarok Canyon is very proficient on adventure trails, as long as you observe the golden rules of driving in soft sand. Picture: DENNIS DROPPA

First up was a trip from Joburg to Ponta Malongane in Mozambique, followed by a stint to KZN’s south coast, and it was a real test of the Amarok’s space as we packed five people aboard plus all their camping luggage.l The touchscreen infotainment system’s easy to operate, pairs quickly with Bluetooth devices, and I liked that it has quick-access physical buttons for the main menu functions.

The cloth/leather seats in this limited-edition Amarok are styled in special edition Canyon trim with orange stitching, to match the striking honey orange metallic body colour. The seatbelts and steering wheel also get orange stitching and the roof lining is black. The Canyon slots in just under the Highline Plus and the Extreme in the Amarok range at R799,000, and buyers can tick the options list with extras like a larger-screened media system with navigation and a Winter Pack that features heated front seats and wiper nozzles.
