Why it stands out
The 2021 Volkswagen Atlas is designed as a family-friendly three-row SUV, perfect for buyers looking to avoid the stigma of a minivan. Its spacious interior features a standard seven-seat configuration, highlighted by a roomy third row that surpasses many competitors in legroom. The Atlas combines decent cargo volume with user-friendly controls and modern technology, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, making it a solid contender in its segment. Despite these strengths, the 2021 Atlas does face criticism regarding its poor fuel economy and ride quality, which can be disappointing in a market seeking both comfort and efficiency. This model also benefits from Volkswagen's extensive safety features, including automatic emergency braking and blind-spot monitoring, adding to its appeal as a family vehicle.

Lots of features upgrading from a 2006 vehicle. Rides and drives great with plenty of power from the v6

Love this SUV. I have never had a VW before and honestly I will never own another type. All the features, only thing I didn’t get was the sunroof but I will next time

I love how much space there is for the 3rd row. With 3 growing boys and 2 still needing to be in harness booster it is why I chose the atlas over highlander or 4runner with 3rd row. Even moving the 2nd row up to have space in the 3rd row is still roomy. With backpacks and diaper bag, extra floor space is a big necessity for me. I have been looking at the Atlas for a year. Im extremely happy I finally chose one. I also love i can still fit my graco stroller behind the 3rd row. Its not the full size or the smallest one. It still has the bottom carry space if that helps any other moms decide.

This vehicle is a slightly bigger and better built option to the Ford Explorer, and I found it very comparable to the Kia Telluride.
