Interior Dimensions

Something that’s important to almost all drivers is a cabin that offers ample room for passengers with remaining space to stow cargo. There’s plenty of space for your entire crew inside the Volkswagen Atlas. The 154 cubic feet of passenger volume is enough to accommodate riders in each of the seven seats so that everyone can get in on the fun.

The first row offers the most room for passengers with 61.3 cubic feet of space. The middle row comes in second with 53.5 cubic feet of space for the passengers to stretch out. The last row features 39.2 cubic feet of space for the riders.

Let’s see how much headroom and legroom these rows offer with a quick breakdown:

When it comes time to carry cargo, the standard 60/40 split-folding second-row seats and 50/50-split folding third-row seats allow you to turn both rows of rear passenger space into room for everything you need for your next great adventure. The versatility of the interior space lets drivers find a configuration for any situation and is ideal if you’re trying to haul larger items, like luggage, sports equipment, home improvement items, and more.

VW Atlas Cargo Capacity

Having an SUV with an expansive cabin is vital for the comfort of your passengers but also needs to provide room for your cargo and materials for when you’re planning an adventure or an extended trip. When all the seats in the cabin are upright, the 2022 VW Atlas offers 20.6 cubic feet of space behind the third row.

If you need to make more room for your materials, you can easily fold the third row flat to stretch the cargo capacity to 55.5 cubic feet. However, when you need all the space you can get, folding down the second and third rows can open the cargo area to a whopping 96.8 cubic feet. Collectively, with passengers and cargo, the VW Atlas can carry up to 1,102 pounds.

Entertainment & Connectivity Features

If you’re in the market for a new vehicle, you expect to have a cabin loaded with a variety of advanced technology features. When the 2022 VW Atlas is filled with passengers, it’s time to make the journey fun for everyone. Below are a few features that come standard on the VW Atlas:

● The vehicle has a 4G LTE-enabled Wi-Fi hotspot that lets everyone stay online and connected.

● Connectivity doesn’t end there. With hands-free Bluetooth®, you can sync your device to the VW Atlas and stream your music throughout the cabin.

● Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connect your devices to the center console, turning the 6.5-inch touchscreen into an extension of your phone and allow access to messages, apps, and more.

The VW Atlas also comes with some additional available entertainment and connectivity features, like the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit. This advanced display replaces the traditional instrument cluster so that drivers can view this information in high resolution. You can also customize the information being displayed, including speed, travel time, driver-assistive systems, elevation, and more.

You can also opt for available SiriusXM® with 360L, which curates a personalized sound experience for everyone. When paired with the optional Fender® Premium Audio System, you’ll have a concert-like experience from inside the cabin of your VW Atlas as you’re taking on the road.

Safety & Driver-Assistive Systems

The Volkswagen Atlas is designed to give you confidence on the open roads, thanks to its extensive lineup of safety and driver-assistive features. The VW Atlas comes standard with IQ.DRIVE®, which features hands-on semi-autonomous capabilities and combines some of the most advanced safety technology on the market to help keep you protected from a potential collision.

Below are a few of the systems that come with the IQ.DRIVE® safety suite:

● Lane Assist: This available system helps you get back into your lane when you start to drift into another one without signaling. This feature works when the VW Atlas is traveling above 37 MPH and works when lane markings on the road are detected.

● Front Assist: This standard system is designed to monitor traffic and help you avoid a potential frontal collision with the vehicles in front of you. Also, if you can’t react in time or don’t brake hard enough, the system can either add more pressure to the brakes or can apply emergency brakes automatically.

● Adaptive Cruise Control: This available feature allows you to set a desired following distance from the car in front of you. When this feature is activated, the sensors can detect when the car in front of you is speeding up or slowing down and can adjust the speed as needed.

● Rear Traffic Alert: This standard system is great for making reversing your VW Atlas a breeze. The system’s sensors can detect vehicles crossing in your rear path when you’re in reverse and can apply the brakes if needed.

● Emergency Assist: This available feature is designed to detect if the driver is no longer able to operate their vehicle through monitoring steering wheel activity. After numerous alerts, the system is designed to bring the vehicle to a controlled stop.

These systems work by using exterior-mounted sensors that will measure your vehicle’s speed, its lane position, and even its distance from other vehicles. If these sensors detect a potential issue or collision, they can notify you through a warning system. They can then use braking power to potentially reduce the severity of impact while giving you time to react to stop the vehicle and avoid the accident completely.

Driver’s Features

As the driver of the Volkswagen Atlas, it’s important to stay comfortable and relaxed throughout your drive even if you’re only driving down the road. While the passengers enjoy Volkswagen entertainment options, you’ll find equally impressive features in the driver’s seat:

● The available heated first- and second-row seats will keep you warm as you embark on your next winter trip, while optional Climatronic® 3-zone automatic climate control allows everyone in the first and second rows to be comfortable at their ideal temperature inside the cabin.

● Furthermore, standard Volkswagen Car-Net® gives you expert mapping assistance in addition to other conveniences. Access to your contacts’ addresses, the latest traffic updates, and full navigation means you can focus less on finding your way and more on cruising the streets.

Cabin Comforts & Style

The VW Atlas cabin has a lot to offer to help keep you and your passengers comfortable for the ride. The interior includes standard V-Tex leatherette seating, which resembles real leather but is more breathable so it won’t absorb excess heat from the Florida sun.

Of course, the standard dual-zone climate control system lets you and your front passenger select your preferred level of temperature with vents in the last two rows to accommodate everyone on board.

As the driver, you can tailor your comfort needs thanks to the standard 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat that also includes power-adjustable lumbar support. It lets you choose your ideal comfort for the ride. The interior also includes standard LED interior lighting to help you during nighttime drives.

The VW Atlas also features a standard auto-dimming interior rearview mirror. This mirror will be vital during nighttime driving. It works to help reduce the light being reflected from headlights behind you. This will help you avoid any discomfort or brightness and allow you to keep your eyes clear and on the road.

Interior Accessories

In addition to all the conveniences and entertainment features we’ve seen so far, the VW Atlas offers an abundance of available accessories to further accommodate your needs while driving down the avenue. These options keep all drivers in mind, from the family man to the outdoorsman:

●  Universal Tablet Holder

●  Security Console Safe by Tuffy®

●  Privacy Cover

●  Baby Mirror

●  MuddyBuddy™ Trunk Liner with Extended Back Seat Cover
