Review: 2021 Volkswagen Atlas V6 SEL Premium R-Line

Touting a new look for a new decade, the 2021 Volkswagen Atlas is bringing comfort and convenience to the American market. This three-row sport utility vehicle not only has a contemporary interior cabin with a premium feel, but there's also plenty of room inside for up to seven passengers to spread out on available V-Tex leatherette seating surfaces while enjoying Climatronic® 3-zone automatic climate control. The Atlas, launched in the USA in 2017, is powered either by a 235-horsepower four-cylinder turbocharged engine or by a 276-horsepower 3.6L V6 engine. The power is further complemented by standard equipment including an 8-speed automatic transmission, LED headlights, and App-Connect as a smart phone interface. Innovative technology also includes keyless access and wireless charging for compatible devices as well as driver assist features like dynamic road sign display, park assist, area view, and more hands-on semi-autonomous capabilities. The available touchscreen navigation system with dynamic route guidance helps make the map more prominent, and the digital cockpit display offers high resolution information and personalized customization options.

Safety is a core value to us. And while we can't predict everything you might encounter, we can and do spend long hours trying to help you prepare for it.
