Used 2019 Volkswagen Atlas for Sale

What's New in the 2019 Volkswagen Atlas?

Forward-collision mitigation with automatic emergency braking/pedestrian detection and blind spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert are now standard in the lowest trim level, along with automatic headlights, heated side mirrors and rain-sensing wipers. Two new trims -- SE w/Technology R-Line and SEL R-Line -- join the range. The SE trim gains tri-zone automatic climate control, while the SE w/Technology trims now offer the options of a panoramic sunroof, garage door opener and 20-in alloy wheels. And SEL trims receive the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit, upgraded infotainment system with navigation, heated steering wheel and LED taillights as standard.

Which Atlas is the Best?

The SE w/Technology trim hits that balance of worthwhile equipment at a reasonable price. It also means the V6 is under the hood and brings the option of AWD.
