2025 Volkswagen Atlas


The 2025 Volkswagen Atlas redefines family transportation with its spacious three rows, accommodating up to seven passengers comfortably. Capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds, the Atlas combines practicality with a reliable performance wrapped in a sleek, unassuming design. While it may not turn heads with its aesthetic, its roomy interior and ample cargo space make it a top choice for families. Powered by a 269-hp turbocharged inline-four engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, the Atlas delivers a smooth ride for both daily commutes and weekend adventures. 

What's New for 2025?

After a substantial refresh in 2024, the Atlas returns with minor updates for 2025. Standard wireless device charging adds convenience, while the SEL Premium R-Line trims now feature luxurious touches such as perforated headrest upholstery and a massaging front seat function. New color options include Mountain Lake Blue and Avocado Green, enhancing the Atlas's appeal. Additionally, select models with a subscription to VW's Car-Net can enjoy a voice assistant powered by ChatGPT, making connectivity even more seamless. 

Performance

All Atlas models feature a robust 269-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, providing excellent throttle response and improved acceleration compared to previous V6 models. It's designed for both efficiency and power, making it a reliable choice for city driving and highway cruising alike. 

Towing and Fuel Economy

With the ability to tow 5,000 pounds, the Atlas stands out among its competitors. Front-wheel-drive models achieve an EPA-estimated 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway, while all-wheel-drive variants deliver slightly lower numbers. Real-world testing indicates the Atlas can perform impressively, returning 25 mpg on the highway. 

Interior and Technology

The Atlas prioritizes family-friendly features, boasting a practical interior design and an intuitive layout. The spacious cabin comfortably seats adults in all three rows, and there's ample cargo space for family trips. A 12.0-inch infotainment touchscreen is standard, equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while advanced connectivity features keep you entertained on the go. 

Safety and Warranty

Safety is paramount in the Atlas, which comes equipped with a suite of standard and optional driver-assistance technologies. Key features include forward-collision warning, automated emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. Volkswagen backs the Atlas with an impressive warranty, offering four years or 50,000 miles of coverage, along with two years of complimentary scheduled maintenance.
