Volkswagen’s largest SUV, the Atlas, received a makeover for 2024, setting the bar higher for the competition. Due to the refresh we saw in 2024, there are minimal changes for model year 2025. This year’s model retains its newly improved engine, upgraded exterior, and more upscale cabin features. Notable updates include three new exterior paint colors: Mountain Lake Blue, Avocado Green, and Pure Grey (previously only available on the Peak Edition trim).
