Volkswagen has introduced their most sizable vehicle yet. Their first 3-row SUV is the incredible 2018 Atlas. This incredible SUV has a list of enticing features from a spacious interior for carpoolers, kids and pets to precise handling on the way to your next adventure.
If you like to haul more than just people, the Atlas is the car for you due to its powerful towing capacity. If you live in the areas of Turnersville, Cherry Hill and Mount Laurel, you have to see this car for yourself. Learn more about how the 2018 Volkswagen Atlas and its towing capacity can get you and your things to your destination safely and in style.
VW Atlas Interior Dimensions and Specifications
The standard VW Atlas engine is a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged engine with 235 horsepower. This will provide you with up to 2,000 pounds of towing capacity, which would move your pop-up tent trailer, small boat, or small trailer with ease. When fully equipped with the 3.6-liter V6 engine, you have a towing capacity of 5,000 pounds. Your recreational boat or small, hard-side RV would hit this mark.
You may not even need to hook up the trailer right away. The Atlas interior has an enormous amount of space. If all seven seats are being used, there are 20.6 cubic feet available behind the third row. Fold down the third row completely to access 55.5 cubic feet. Add the second row and the Atlas offers 96.8 cubic feet of cargo space. To add to these impressive numbers, the second row adjusts back and forth to create more legroom for the third row. You can also customize where your space is by utilizing the 60/40 second row seats and the 50/50 third row seats.
Volkswagen Atlas Towing Technology
The 2018 Atlas takes advantage of many technologies to increase its towing capacity. Active Control all-wheel drive with 4MOTION powers all four wheels to give you the most traction possible during the most unfriendly weather. Select between four weather modes to make towing your trailer even more simple. Other features include the blind spot monitor, rear view camera and rear cross-traffic alert. These keep your passengers and your equipment safe. A feature that makes loading your 2018 Atlas a breeze is the hands-free power liftgate.
Volkswagen Accessories
Not only will the new VW Atlas safely get you and your family or friends to your adventure location, it will safely get all your gear there, too. With many different roof attachments, your possessions are going to have a smooth ride. If you're into winter sports, look into the available snowboard and ski attachment. If water sports are more your style, check out the optional wakeboard, surfboard and kayak attachments. Does your family love biking? The bike holder or hitch bike carrier attachments keep your extra wheels securely contained. If you haul a little bit of everything and just want some extra space on the roof, the cargo box carrier and roof basket attachments are also available
