This year’s Worthersee Festival may be packed with numerous high-performance machines and shiny concept cars,  but there’s at least one certain pickup truck  that literally rocked the Austrian event. We’re talking about the Volkswagen Amarok Power Concept, a truck created not just to showcase the company’s more aggressive side, but equipped with everything it needs to be the life of the party.

The most intriguing part about this pickup is the 5000-watt sound system and the DJ equipment fitted in its spacious bed. The gear includes a 92 Allen & Heath DJ kit, a Pioneer CDJ900NXS player, two Void Acoustics Impulse 3t speakers, a Stasys Xair subwoofer and six micro speakers. That’s more than enough to make a lot of noise while throwing a cool party at the beach.

Speaking of pumping, the party truck is fitted with a 3.0-liter, V-6, diesel engine that’s equally impressive in terms of performance. With help from a turbocharged unit, the oil-burner delivers 268 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque, and launches the Amarok from a 0 to 62 mph in 7.9 seconds, before reaching a top speed of 130 mph. Design-wise, the Amarok Power Concept looks like a German version of the almighty Dodge Ram SRT-10  . The truck sits 3 inches (80 mm) lower than the regular Amarok and rides on massive 22-inch alloy wheels wrapped in low profile tires. Finished in Gunmetal, the rims make a great combo with the vehicle’s Dynamic Grey coat and the orange decals adorning the sides. The truck’s unique appearance is further enhanced by a larger lower intake mounted in the front bumper, the smoked taillights, chrome exhaust tips, and the black diffuser. The grey and orange theme is present in the cabin as well, where the sporty bucket seats are trimmed in black and Orange Power Nappa leather. The orange hue also highlights the dashboard and center console, which benefit from a carbon-fiber-like finish. To round things off, Volkswagen used Alcantara to dress the flat-bottomed steering wheel, the gear lever and the handbrake.
