Volkswagen’s three-row midsize SUV can seat six or seven people depending on the configuration. For 2023, equipment revisions include a standard digital instrument panel in Comfortline trim. Engine selection once again consists of a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder (235 horsepower) and a naturally aspirated 3.6-litre V6 (276 horsepower). Don’t forget the Atlas Cross Sport, a coupe-like variant that is slightly more affordable than the regular Atlas but only accommodates five passengers.
