Since you’ll probably be spending a lot of time in your crossover SUV, it’s important to take note of the features that will keep your drives comfortable and efficient. Luckily, you’ll find these in both the 2020 VW Atlas Cross Sport and the 2020 Ford Edge.
Both vehicles offer spacious seating for 5 passengers, so you’ll have no issue opting to be the carpool parent for the weekend soccer game. Behind the backseat of the VW Atlas Cross Sport, you’ll also have ample space for game gear—40.3 cubic feet, to be exact! The Edge falls behind here, offering just 39.2 cubic feet of room for storage.
However, you’ll find the latest technology features in both the VW Atlas Cross Sport and the Ford Edge. The VW Atlas Cross Sport comes standard with App-Connect, where you can access your smartphone games and apps right on your touchscreen. The Ford Edge offers similar features with the SYNC®3 AppLink®.
Just because you’re looking for a vehicle that’s family-friendly doesn’t mean that you don’t want some extra power in your daily drives. In this category, you can’t go wrong with either the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport or the Ford Edge. Both offer two engine options with at least 276 horsepower. That’s plenty of punch to take you on your daily errands or that weekend road trip you’ve been waiting for.
Speaking of weekend trips, why not go off the road? The VW Atlas Cross Sport offers not just Off-Road Mode, but Off-Road Custom Mode, too! While you’re taking your vehicle off the grid, you can set your all-wheel-drive settings to your liking, so that you can get the most out of your vehicle’s capabilities.
As for even more capability, the VW Atlas Cross Sport can also tow up to 5,000 pounds when you opt for the V6 engine. That’s enough capability to hitch up your boat or trailer with ease. Unfortunately, the Ford Edge can only tow up to 3,500 pounds.
While both the 2020 VW Atlas Cross Sport and 2020 Ford Edge offer excellent options when it comes to choosing a family-friendly crossover SUV, we think the towing capacity, storage space, and road-trip-ready features in the VW Atlas Cross Sport make this one worth the test drive.
