Comfortable, good looking car, cruise control Rocks. The car is perferct, but I will love more horsepower on this giant. There is a noise that i just found out what it was in other reviews, with the window up you don't hear it much but window down and up a hill is noticeable. The noise comes from the torque converter, is a grinding noise. You only hear it for 2 seconds on low gears. Besides this the SUV is awesome, from North Bergen, New Jersey.

Atlas for the family

Traded in my Audi A4 when it became apparent that 2 car seats rendered the A4 almost useless. After shopping around and doing some research, settled on the the 2019, SE 4 Motion/w tech. Power lift gate was something I really wanted and only comes on the tech version. I was aiming towards a 2018 base model, but VW convinced up-gaging in year and trim was worth it. Bought CPO with 15k miles which takes warranty out to 2026. Considered Telliuride and Highlander, but Atlas beat out on total value. My first SUV and I’m very happy with it so far!

Great everyday SUV

It’s capable as minivan, but solid and safe as SUV. As you like or not gas milage its not bad if you have a v6 as 3.6 liters, you just have to get a soft acceleration and wouldn’t be different problem if you drive an electric car. Space is impressive capable almost like a suburban but its not that expensive V8. Safety seems to do well if you look the test I hope don’t have to deal with it but all the time the warning and break assistance save me from distractions or blind spots like reverse manuver Stop the car completely to avoid a collision. Suspension would be my only concern, as the only way to manage it, is from a car shop. If to soft will make not good drive in freeway and if too tight will effect city comfort drive.... I guess thats y the other suv lux have airsodt options where trow away all the budget thing! Hopefully they will get better. Only regret I ddnt get 4 motion would more be stable acceleration and better wearing of tires where must rotate every 5k. Front speaning very easy if you are in the rush. If you are in the budget I would suggest se v6 4 motion. Fake leather seats very fragile.

don't get technology if you need a hitch...

Atlas SE w/technology is a great all around SUV, however its hitch with a lift for a mobility scooter is incompatible with adaptive cruise control(ACC). even just the lift installed throws the front sensor out of the range it can be adjusted. IMO it would probly do the same trailering a boat etc. or even with a heavy load in the trunk. The ACC cannot be disengaged to allow regular cruise control. I wish I had leased an SE w/o technology

No Reliability; Poor Customer Service

We bought a new 2019 Atlas in August. It needed a new catalytic converter at 1400 miles. It’s in the shop now (December) for the THIRD time with a check engine light. VW will text me, but then claim they don’t have my phone number to call me.
