2024 Volkswagen Atlas | Keeping Up With the Rest?

The 2024 Volkswagen Atlas is a 3-row, 7 or 6 seater SUV. If you opt for the Cross Sport trim it becomes a 5 seater. A notable change for 2024 is the replacement of the V6 engine with a 2.0L four cylinder that makes 269 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Many of its competitors like the Mazda CX-90 and Toyota Grand Highlander have engine options that produce more power. So can the Atlas keep up?

If you had to choose between the VW Atlas, the Mazda CX-90 or the Toyota Grand Highlander...What would you pick?

I love my 2024 peak edition atlas. It is one of the most spacious and comfortable cars I have ever sat and driven in. It has been absolutely flawless in a month or so since I owned it. It seems that they are many of the negative reviews about VW, but not nearly enough of the positive ones. The reality is that there are way more reliable and great atlas cars then lemons. But people don’t seem to understand that you can get a lemon car with literally any other car manufacturer not only VW. Atlas is as great as you can get for the price, above average quality build and nothing beats that massive cargo space which comes in so handy at times.

For me VW/Audi have the best looking SUVS

Love the review guys... Could you please also do a similar if not the same review of the Cross Sport as well😄

[cameronmiller]

I have a 2024 SE w/ technology and totally love it!

Great video and great review! Good work. Just want to point out that there is a spare tire! ;) i bought the Execline with the captain chairs. My final Top 3 in the category was Atlas, GH and Palisade. I wish that the 2024 Traverse was out as it look pretty nice too. In the end, we were looking for a luxury feel with comfort, tech, and room for long family trip so the Atlas is the winner in my opinion despite the lack of physical button.

A couple times you did not mention: how is the drive (engine, transmission, suspension) for this type of vehicle that of course is not a BMW or Audi? Second, was the NVH acceptable? Going to test drive a cross sport in a few weeks and would enjoy your thoughts on the items I listed.

Love your energy.

I'm not a big VW fan but i do like this alot

[keska]

I have the cross sport and the drive is very luxurious

[atlfun]

Love the front. Can’t wait to get it at a rental car center and see if that V4 can hang with the big boys.

Pretty good review, few things you missed that I would have brought up. I noticed only because I currently sell for VW. The trim level should have the heads up display and heated seats for the second row. Also all of the trim levels have ventilated seats now too. Now I say this as well being that I'm in the U.S. if there is a difference with the Canadian bad...lol

Great review, thank you. I’m very happy with my 24 Atlas SE W/Tech

[joebenitez]

Thank you for the review, just put down some cash for one, and had some doubts. Since this is for travel with the fam and for the wife to enjoy, I think the engine would be good enough. We have a 2022 Santa fe that fly's but the transmission busted out (twice). Hence the change for space and reliability, sans the same power.

I really love the front end looking like the Ford Explorer from a few years ago. I’d buy one if it wasn’t for the entire rest of the car, VW is running their company straight into the ground. It’s like they’re removing the heaters, adding buttons to start an actual fire, and asking why people don’t want their cars. The fact the CEO put out a statement saying “I see we’re upsetting our customers” during a time when not one CEO will admit fault shows how bad their decision making has been.

Atlas vs Ascent ...which one? Spend a lot time in the mountains in the winter!

[Longball]

Wow. Review or sales job? Apparently this is the perfect SUV.

[jennymyles]

There is a space saver spare tire in the trunk. It's just well hidden. :)

[mensahfrancis]

The Atlas looks very solid and reliable

[dennwilliams]

VW have one of the best mobile apps in the business great suv and Tiguan is great as well

[Bri_]

Lol loved this review - always know a VW guy, bypassing all the little quirks (the “chrome exhaust”) 😂 but I’m a bit biased as well, love my VW Tiguan!
