Consider these five key features that make these vehicles the perfect antidote to carpool chaos.

So whether you're shuttling kids to soccer practice or running errands around town, you can relax and enjoy the ride knowing that you're surrounded by luxury.

Comfort Redefined

Long gone are the days of cramped car rides and stiff seats. In the 2024 Atlas, comfort is king. Standard features like a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, and Climatronic® automatic climate control transform mundane commutes into relaxing retreats. And with the addition of Voice Control, drivers can effortlessly adjust settings and access navigation without ever taking their hands off the wheel. Whether it's a quick trip to the grocery store or a cross-country road trip, passengers will arrive at their destination feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Comfort is essential when it comes to tackling the daily carpool grind. With the heated steering wheel and ventilated front seats in the Atlas, every trip has the potential to become a luxurious retreat. Whether it's a chilly morning commute or a hot summer afternoon, you can stay comfortable and relaxed behind the wheel, making carpooling a breeze.

State-of-the-Art Technology

Stay connected and entertained on the go with the advanced technology features found in the Atlas. At the heart of the cockpit lies a stunning 12-inch floating infotainment display, seamlessly integrated into the dashboard for a sleek and modern look. Paired with the fully configurable Volkswagen Digital Cockpit Pro, drivers have access to a wealth of information right at their fingertips, including speed, navigation directions, and vehicle diagnostics. And with standard wireless App-Connect, wireless charging, and multiple USB-C ports, staying connected has never been easier. Whether streaming music, making hands-free calls, or accessing your favorite apps, the possibilities are endless. Keeping kids entertained and engaged during carpool can be a challenge, but with state-of-the-art technology features, boredom is a thing of the past. From the 12-inch floating infotainment display to the wireless App-Connect, there's no shortage of entertainment options to keep everyone happy on the road. So whether it's streaming their favorite music or playing games on their devices, the kids will be entertained for hours, making carpool chaos a distant memory.

Safety and Security

Safety is paramount, and the Atlas provides a host of innovative features designed to protect you and your loved ones on every journey. IQ.DRIVE® driver assistance technology takes the stress out of driving with semi-autonomous capabilities that help you stay centered in your lane and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles. The addition of predictive Adaptive Cruise Control and a head-up display further enhance safety and convenience, while available features like a panoramic view monitor and perimeter scan provide peace of mind in crowded parking lots and busy streets. With these advanced safety features, you can drive with confidence knowing that you're protected from every angle. Nothing is more important than the safety of your family. That's why the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas comes equipped with a range of advanced safety features designed to give you peace of mind on the road. From lane-keeping assist to adaptive cruise control, these innovative technologies work together to help prevent accidents and keep your loved ones safe. So whether you're navigating busy city streets or cruising down the highway, you can rest easy knowing that your precious cargo is protected.

Exterior Makeover

But it's not just what's on the inside that counts; the Atlas has also received a stunning exterior makeover. A new front end design, featuring a wide chrome four-bar grille and LED headlights with Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS), sets the stage for the vehicle's premium aesthetic. Gloss-black grille details and illuminated light bars add a touch of sophistication, while sleek rear spoilers and LED taillights create a dynamic and sporty silhouette. With new wheel designs ranging from 18 to 20 inches, as well as signature R-line badging and 21-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, the Atlas makes a lasting impression on the road. Your vehicle is an extension of your personal style, and that's why the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas offer a range of stylish exterior features. From the sleek LED headlights to the bold chrome grille, every detail has been carefully crafted to make a statement. So whether you're dropping the kids off at school or heading out for a night on the town, you can do it in style.

Power and Performance

Under the hood, the 2024 Atlas is powered by a four-cylinder turbocharged and direct-injection TSI® engine, delivering an impressive 269 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. This potent powertrain provides similar power to the outgoing VR6 engine, with a bump in torque that enhances drivability and acceleration. Paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and available all-wheel-drive system, the Atlas offers a smooth and responsive driving experience on various road conditions. And the towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds makes easier work of hauling trailers, boats, or other recreational gear on your next adventure. Whether you're running errands around town or embarking on a weekend getaway, the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas delivers power and performance to tackle journeys with confidence. The turbocharged engine and responsive transmission delivers smooth acceleration and effortless passing on the highway, while the available all-wheel-drive system provides enhanced traction and stability in challenging road conditions. And thanks to its impressive towing capacity, you can bring along your gear for outdoor adventures without breaking a sweat.
