The all-new 2027 Volkswagen Atlas 7-seater SUV and Atlas Cross Sport will be powered by a 282 horsepower turbocharged and direct-injection 2.0-liter four-cylinder TSI® powerplant mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic® manual shifting. Front-wheel drive is standard and Volkswagen’s 4Motion® all-wheel-drive system is available across the lineup. The available free-standing infotainment screen is 15 inches on all but the base trim, which gets a 12.9-inch display. All Atlas models feature Volkswagen’s 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit Pro configurable gauge cluster. The entry Atlas upgrades to a 9-speaker audio system, and a 14-speaker Harman Kardon® premium audio system is available on the top trim. The vehicle is about 2 inches longer than the outgoing Atlas, but the wheelbase is unchanged.
The Atlas Cross Sport 5-seater midsize SUV is 6.5 inches shorter at 196.6 inches overall and 2.2 inches lower than the 7-seater Atlas and has all-new sheet metal.
