Volkswagen’s Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport models for 2024 have arrived with a brand new trim configuration and an upgraded powertrain. The Atlas boasts four trim levels with a new addition—the Peak Edition—while its sibling, the Atlas Cross Sport, retains its three trims. All models, as of 2024, will be powered by a four-cylinder turbocharged engine, punching out 269 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. This power unit outpaces the predecessor's VR6 engine in torque while promising better fuel economy. Moreover, an eight-speed automatic transmission and Volkswagen’s 4MOTION all-wheel-drive system come standard for both models.
Upscale Interiors, Premium Features
The interiors of the Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport have received significant upgrades for the 2024 model year, incorporating a plusher, modern feel. Both vehicles feature premium materials including a soft-touch dash and center console trimmed in leatherette. Top-of-range models even boast quilted leather seats with a diamond stitch pattern. Ambient lighting with 30 colour choices, alongside backlit dash décor, enhance the opulent design.
Improved Comfort and Convenience
Notably, comfort-centric features have been prioritized. A heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, and a height-adjustable passenger seat now come as standard. In addition, there’s a revamped three-zone Climatronic automatic climate control and a redesigned centre console.
