Volkswagen will provide inexpensive and practical pickups

At the recently-completed motor show in New York, Scott Keogh, Volkswagen CEO in the United States, called Tarok pick-up a 'trial balloon' hinting at more and more new products.

If we take into account the truck market, it is for the company the 'biggest gap.' Volkswagen's motivation is to occupy this niche by offering more adequate prices. Average pickup prices today reach $50,000-60,000, and Volkswagen wants to make the first pickup with a price of $20,000.

Rumors are about two potential new products from the company. The first is a car based on the ranger. The second is the serial embodiment of the Tarok concept with the base of the Volkswagen Group MQB.
