Volkswagen Debuts The All-New Atlas SUV

Since it first arrived on the scene for the 2018 model year, the Volkswagen Atlas has become a beloved three-row SUV for buyers who were looking for more than just another bland family vehicle. While 2021 saw significant updates for the sport utility, 2024 saw the Atlas become even better, with a new engine that offered more power and torque, along with more standard equipment and upgraded safety features.  

Introducing The All-New 2027 Volkswagen Atlas 

At this year’s New York International Auto Show, Volkswagen took the wraps off the all-new 2027 Atlas with the latest fifth-generation EA888 turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder that delivers 13 more horsepower at 282 and 258 lb-ft of torque and gets paired with the current model’s fantastic and smart 8-speed automatic transmission. The legendary 4Motion all-wheel-drive system is available as an option across all trim levels, and Volkswagen says a hybrid model will arrive in a few years during a mid-cycle refresh.  

A Word from Volkswagen 

“When we first launched Atlas in 2017, we delivered the space and style the SUV market was missing; practical, well‑designed, and unmistakably Volkswagen,” said Kjell Gruner, President and CEO, Volkswagen of America. “The all‑new 2027 Atlas brings more of what matters: a stronger design, smarter technology, increased power, and a premium feel where it matters most.” 

Higher End and More Premium 

One of the main goals of the all-new Atlas was to give buyers a more premium-looking and feeling SUV without breaking the bank. The new, unique stacked LED headlights, along with the lighted bar and VW logo running along the front grille, let everyone know what you’re driving before you even get there. More pronounced fender flares lead the way to different wheel sizes, from 18 to 20 and 21 inches. The high shoulder line of the side profile gives the Atlas a more upright appearance. The taillights feature multiple LEDs connected by a lightbar.  

New Exterior Colors 

Volkswagen will offer three new colors for all 2027 Atlas models: Blackberry, Sacramento Green, and Sandstone.  

A New, More Premium Interior 

The premium-ness doesn’t stop with the exterior design. No, the interior incorporates new design elements, such as high-end soft-touch materials, genuine wood on the dashboard, and the ability to choose from up to 30 ambient interior colors.  

New Colors, Accents, and Features 

Buyers will be able to choose among three interior color options: pebble grey, a moody black with dark grey, and a brand-new deep wine. Base trim models feature leatherette seating surfaces, while the top two trim levels receive Varenna or Nappa leather seats. Speaking of seats, the driver will appreciate having a 12-way power-adjustable seat with four-way lumbar support as standard. Rear passengers receive a new air vent in the B-pillar for improved ventilation.  

Better Interior Tech  

Base trim levels will have a 12.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, while all higher trims have a 15-inch screen. The much-loved 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit Pro digital instrument cluster is also standard on all models and configurable to your tastes and needs. The Driver Experience Dial on the center console will control the stereo volume, the new Atmosphere feature, and the different drive modes. For the first time, the Atlas is available with side-by-side Qi2 wireless chargers in the center console for the driver and front passenger. However, seven USB-C ports are still offered throughout the cabin. Owners will get a free one-year subscription to Premium Speech, the new generative A.I. voice assistant from Volkswagen.  

New Standard Equipment 

The 2027 Atlas offers new features as standard, including a power liftgate, rear sunshades, auto-dimming driver side mirror, dual hatch lights, and rear park distance control. Base models are upgraded to a 9-speaker sound system, while other models offer a 14-speaker Harmon Kardon premium sound system, standard on the top trim.  

Even More Safety Than Before 

One of the greatest innovations of the 2027 Atlas is the inclusion of a center airbag between the driver and front passenger, bringing the total to seven airbags. The standard IQ.DRIVE suite of safety equipment features updated driver-assistance technology, including Travel Assist for semi-autonomous, hands-on driving, and Emergency Assist, which will bring the vehicle to the side of the road and to a complete stop during a medical emergency. The base model now gets Park Distance Control as standard, while the top trim gets a new version of Park Assist Plus.  

You Choose Between Two and Three Rows 

Like the previous models, the Atlas will be available as both a three-row SUV and the two-row Atlas Cross Sport. When properly equipped, both models will still be able to tow up to 5,000 lbs.
