Volkswagen demonstrate the impressive power of its brand new model by using it to demolish a 67m high steel chimney at a disused Brewery in Reading. The structure weighed approximately 140 tonnes and stands at nearly the same height as Westminster Abbey.

The chimney would normally have been demolished using a 40 tonne excavator, but after months of careful planning from structural engineers and demolition experts the Volkswagen Amarok was given the opportunity to be the first pick-up in the world to ever attempt such a task.
