2010 Volkswagen Robust Pickup

By Matt Hardigree

Jalopnik

Brenda Priddy, the femme fatale of car spy photography, got us one heck of a scoop today–real, live and non-blurry photos of the new Volkswagen pickup truck tester. We’ve been told this mid-size hauler will be called the 2010 VW Robust in certain markets, but that’s speculation as of now. What’s also speculation is whether we’ll end up seeing it here in the United States and of course whether the new four-door pickup from the brand all about "Fahrvergnügen" will end up hitting showrooms as a 2010 model year product. What we do know is current plans are for it to be built in Hanover, Germany as well as Argentina. Full-sized pics and spy report from Brenda Priddy at Jalopnik.

At least VW has a history of building trucks. I know it’s been said many times already, but if they bring it with the diesel and without bloating it up any larger than the ones they’ve got running around right now, I think it would sell really well.

I’m hoping they’ll change the name…. “Robust” …lol

I’m not to sure I like the idea of a VW truck… it’s almost as gross as the new Pontiac Truck!
