There was talk of a VW Tarok concept with a 1.4 Golf engine and unibody around 2019. Never happened. See the Car & Driver article online from April back then. Happy with my XL.
We had Audi's since 1988. I remain quite skeptical of Audi Ever going with a pickup truck..After market, that is already happening if you buy the kit, limited to the mid 90's A4's..i think. ( sold my Audi TTS) done with Audi.
