Volkswagen unveiled the 2024 model year Atlas at the beginning of 2023 and improved the big crossover that was based on the same MQB platform as its smaller sibling, the Golf.

The Volkswagen Atlas is a mid-size SUV that was first produced in 2017. The refreshed Atlas is available in 2 gasoline versions, the first one with a 235 hp four-cylinder turbocharged and direct-injection, and the second one with a 276 hp v6 engine. Both engines are connected to an eight-speed automatic gearbox.

At the time of its launch, in 2017, the Volkswagen Atlas was the biggest car sold by the German brand in the U.S. The full-size, seven-seat vehicle stormed the doors at the Los Angeles Auto Show in a special event at the Santa Monica Pier.
