2019 VW Atlas Performance Specs
You need a vehicle that is able to keep up with your lifestyle. This is why Volkswagen has included top-of-the-line components under the hood, so you can get where you need to go on your time.
The Volkswagen Atlas is equipped with the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine which generates an impressive 235 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Not only will you get optimal power, but you’ll also receive an estimated fuel efficiency of 20 city/26 highway MPG.* The VW Atlas also offers an optional 3.6-liter V6 engine that can propel the vehicle’s power even further at 276 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque. Both of the VW Atlas engine options come mated to the 8-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic® and Sport Mode.
To improve your drives even further, the available 4MOTION® helps you take on whatever road condition is in your way. It includes modes for dry, rainy, snowy, and rough terrain, making your commutes seamless and safer. The Start-Stop System helps improve the fuel consumption by turning off the engine at elongated stops like red lights. Once the accelerator is pressed, the engine turns back on and you can resume your journey seamlessly.
