Popular aftermarket exhausts reflect the UK's passion for pick-ups, says Milltek Sport

• Milltek Sport says the popularity of its commercial vehicle applications show the UK's love for double-cab pick-ups, as HMRC retains benefit-in-kind rules

•The company's enhanced premium exhausts remain highly popular with pick-up truck owners, designed to enhance aesthetics and reduce cabin noise

Milltek Sport says the popularity of its premium enhanced exhaust systems reflect the UK's enthusiasm for double-cab pick-ups, with owners continuing to enhance their working vehicles in the aftermarket.

Earlier this week, HM Revenue & Customs announced it would retain historic benefit-in-kind rates for double-cab pick-ups, following a nationwide backlash in response to proposed taxation changes. Milltek Sport says it appreciates the clarity from the HMRC and expects the retained BIK rules to continue to support hardworking commercial vehicle owners across the country.

Since launch in 2017, the Volkswagen Amarok has been a popular choice with Milltek Sport customers looking to enhance the character and style of their daily workhorse, with premium cat-back systems available with a choice of exhaust exit and tip designs.

Milltek Sport's Active Sound Units (ASU) have also proved popular with commercial vehicle owners - an innovative solution which generates a user-controllable exhaust sound, specifically designed for vehicles that traditionally lack the sound and tone that owners desire. The ASU is suitable for a wide range of commercial vehicles, and includes 11 selectable sound files with volume, pitch and tone adjustment, controllable via the company's iPhone or Android app.

Milltek Sport's recently launched axle-back exhaust range for the new Ford Ranger Double Cab is suitable for 2.0-litre models with a 1-tonne payload capacity, allowing owners to enhance aesthetics with dual-exit exhaust tips.

Outside of the commercial pick-up market, Milltek Sport has also launched an exhaust range for the performance-focused Ford Ranger Raptor, unlocking even more potential from its highly potent 3.0-litre V6 turbocharged petrol engine.

Milltek Sport's Ranger Raptor system brings more noise to Ford's high-performance pick-up and incorporates the factory driving modes to allow a switchable soundtrack.

'It's true that we're a nation of pick-up truck lovers, and the continuing appetite for premium aftermarket products for commercial vehicles reflects this,' says Steve Pound, Managing Director at Milltek Sport. 'Just because pick-up trucks are built to get the job done doesn't mean owners shouldn't take pride in them, and we're pleased that double-cab pick-ups will retain their status as working commercial vehicles.'
