Latest Hilux model is chalk and cheese to the previous one - much better platform. Having said that the Amarok is much better IMO but has a VW badge on it which scares a lot off - I know at work they looked at them and went with Ford as the VW ‘may not be as reliable’. That’s just one business - we buy with our heads, not hearts too, so something in it maybe? About 100 vehicles a year - were Hiluxs which I have but now Rangers which is what I’ll get next year. All models were considered and tested. Wonder how many other (much larger) businesses have done the same?
As as for the public, VW is always going to have a smaller appeal and market compared with Toyota and Ford, so probably doesn’t matter what they use, they’ll never get close in this country I doubt.
