A great family SUV. My atlas SEL 4 Motion is great to drive and can hold my family of 4 with plenty of cargo space for all of our stuff. The climate control, entertainment system, and driver assist technologies are all top of the line. The ride is comfortable and smooth. Could use some more acceleration and wish it had better gas mileage, but overall 95/100.

Two check engine lights before first oil change

Got an ‘19 SEL RLine back in may 2019. Thought I’d get used to the bad torque converter noise, but it just got worse. When engine shuts off you hear a grinding metallic fan sound like and old clunker. @7k miles the first check engine light came on, dealer replaced catalytic converter. Two weeks later, 2nd light came on for low coolant. Hasn’t even had its first oil change. If I would have know the “head gasket” issues were so common, I would have stayed with a more reliable brand like Toyota or Honda.

This is a fantastic car. The SE w/Technology and 4MOTION is a fantastic trim level with all the bells and whistles I was hoping for at an affordable price. The acceleration, braking, control systems and upgrade features are top-notch, and this is a car I hope to drive for decades to come!

We have loved almost everything about this Atlas. The ease to drive, comfort, it holds our family, good in the snow, power, handling and design. It has been reliable. Zero issues! It is a bit wide and can make parking a bit overwhelming. I wish the materials were better on the inside. I have owned a lot of cars and this one is a stand out for me! Well done over all.

Traded a 2018 Lexus RX350 in for this vehicle. Could not be more satisfied, the Atlas rides better, has more technology, and it's looks are great. I have received many compliments on the Atlas!. The only thing I wish was improved was the cockpit display at night is not bright enough.

Plenty of power. I do not need the 4wd, so this turbo four fwd weighs 300 pounds less and moves very well. Good handling and plenty of room. Got a 2019 for 27170. Less than any mini van. Very happy with purchase.

We had all sorts of issues with our van and it was time for it to go. With that being said, I am 6 ft 4 inches tall and needed leg room. We have 3 children and the oldest is the size of an NFL linebacker. I spent many weeks looking and driving several different types of SUVS keeping in mind that I will be leasing this vehicle. I have drove Ford, Toyota,Honda,GMC, Chevy and Kia. Needless to say I did the homework. VW hands down crushed out the competition in this area. I can stretch all the way out in the drivers area and still have room. I can also stretch completely out in the 2nd row when my wife is driving. Now, the true test.........The 3rd row. Every 3rd row that I sat in just did not have much space at all and if it gave a little space, you lost trunk storage. Boy was I wrong on this one. I was able to sit in the third row and still had leg room. Trunk storage is also great, it has the same amount of trunk storage as the Grand Caravan that we traded in. Not only is this vehicle a great purchase for the family, it turns heads..... People are asking what kind of vehicle it is and where we got it. Hands down, impressive. Kia had a decent new SUV but at the end of the day, we went with quality and comfort. KIA Lease prices are just crazy. VW blew everything out of the water. I wish there was a 6 star rating.

Low gear shifting is abnormal

I bought mine yesterday. The gear shifting from first to second and second to third is abnormal. Brought it to the dealership tonight for inspection and they said that clunky shifting is normal for the Atlas. They test drove it and said it’s expected performance to have those jerky shifts. So if you don’t mind that, pretty good car otherwise. If you like your car to have a normal smooth gear shift in low gears, this vehicle is not for you.
