Used 2019 Volkswagen Atlas Consumer Reviews
Great road tripper
We purchased a used 2019 SEL Premium and have owned it for about 10k miles. I have a unique perspective because we traded in our 2021 Kia Telluride to buy our Atlas. About a year ago, I did tons of research and settled on the Telluride which is the favorite for all the car magazines. We got a white SX brand new and we loved it a lot. It was a fantastic vehicle. Peppy engine, good looks, well-thought out interior. But, after a year and 12k miles, because of the demand for Tellys, we ended up selling it for $10k more than we purchased it new. It seemed like too good of a deal to pass up. We found a 2019 Atlas SEL premium CPO and used the positive equity from the Telluride to greatly reduce our monthly payment. We were sad to see the Telluride leave, but we have grown to love the Atlas. The engine is not as peppy as the Telluride, and many complain about the acceleration with the V6, but I’ve found it surprisingly capable. Accelerating on on ramps is easy and it holds high speeds (80 mph) on the freeway with ease. It’s quieter on the highway than the telluride and feels so smooth. It’s much roomier than the telluride as well. The infotainment isn’t quite as nice as the telluride, but the Atlas is easier to use and the digital display on our SEL premium is nicer than the analog gauges on the Telluride. We average about 18-20 in mixed driving. With the telluride, we were probably about 19-21. So, for a bigger car, it’s not much different. We also like the styling quite a bit with our optional rims that came with it. Overall, we probably liked the Kia Telluride a tiny bit more, but it is very close and the Atlas can be purchased much cheaper than a Telly and it’s actually better on long road trips. So smooth on the interstate and tons of room. We love our Atlas.

Takes pot holes smooth. Gas mileage towing is much better than expected

bigger than it looks!
I was surprised how roomy this car is. I'm 6'3, 350lbs and have plenty of room. I can actually sit comfortably in the second row with the front seat all the way back. This car has a smooth, quiet ride and plenty of power when needed. Averaging 22mpg in mixed city/hwy driving. SE mid trim level is nice. live in the south so didn't need AWD. impressed so far.
