One of our Argentinean readers, Jorge L. Fernández who’s a graduate of UBA has come up with two renderings of the forthcoming Volkswagen Robus that will compete against the Toyota Hilux and Nissan Navara. Due to be launched at the end of 2009 as a 2010 model, VW’s mid-sized pick-up truck will be available as a single cab and double cab combined with either rear-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive.

From what we know, VW will produce the Robust in Argentina aiming towards the South American and South African markets. While the Robust won’t be sold in North America there’s a possibility that VW will bring a high-end version to selected European markets. -Continued
