The 2025 Volkswagen Atlas is a spacious seven-seater that is equipped with all the features a modern family-friendly vehicle needs. While focused on function, it does not compromise on style and comfort, offering both drivers and passengers a very pleasant experience. Here are some of the highlights of this model. Space and Comfort in the 2025 Volkswagen Atlas Basics About the Volkswagen Atlas The Volkswagen Atlas is a mid-size SUV that offers drivers plenty of space, containing three rows of seats which can be conveniently folded down to create an impressive 96.6 cubic feet of room for cargo. When carrying passengers and cargo together, the 60/40-split folding second row and 50/50-split third row allow for a variety of seating configurations so that you can create all the space you need. This versatility makes it an ideal vehicle for busy families. There is even enough space in the Atlas's third row for adults to sit comfortably, but do not think that the interior must be spartan to create so much space. Volkswagen have included a number of comfort-maximizing features, from heated front seats to luxurious leatherette seating surfaces. It also contains some of the latest technology features, such as a 12-inch touchscreen display with a rearview camera. New Features The 2024 edition of the Atlas saw the car undergo a fairly comprehensive redesign, so not too much has been changed for 2025. The few features that have been added only further the Atlas's user-friendly functionality. For example, a wireless charging pad now comes as standard, providing even more options for keeping devices charged on the go besides the 6 USB-C ports that are already included. Drivers will now also benefit from automatic high-beam control. The 2025 Atlas continues to be offered with only one engine, a 2.0L Turbo delivering 269 horsepower, but drivers can choose whether to stick with the standard front-wheel drive configuration or upgrade to all-wheel drive. Driver Assistance and Safety Features As you would expect from a family vehicle, the 2025 Atlas includes a generous helping of safety features. It comes with Volkswagen's IQ.DRIVE assistance suite, which provides lane-change assistance, front and rear collision-avoidance systems, and even a warning system that helps you exit your vehicle safely. The Travel Assist feature helps prevent fatigue in drivers by centering the vehicle in its lane and maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle in front. The Atlas also includes features that enhance the driving experience, such as smooth 8-speed automatic transmission and Adaptive Cruise Control. The latter helps make journeys more relaxed by maintaining a constant speed when possible, preventing drivers from becoming exhausted by repeatedly speeding up and slowing down to keep their distance from the vehicle ahead. The 2025 Atlas is a roomy, versatile, and well-equipped SUV. To find out if it contains everything you need, come down to DeMontrond Volkswagen in Houston, TX and take a look.

It's hard to ignore the many benefits that come with leasing a vehicle. Leasing benefits you financially in multiple ways, and it can also save you time and effort when you're getting a new car at the Volkswagen dealership. 6 Leasing Benefits When Getting a 2025 Volkswagen From Your Volkswagen Dealership 1. You Don't Pay Full Price When you're leasing a car, your monthly payments cover the vehicle's depreciation over your lease period. The payments may also include some fees, such as rent. Because you're not paying for the full value of the car, your monthly payments are often lower than car loan repayments. This is especially true if you're used to shorter loan terms. 2. You Don't Cover Maintenance Costs Leased cars are newer, meaning they're covered by Volkswagen's new-car warranty. So, by default, your 2025 model's warranty will cover the first two years or 20,000 miles of maintenance costs. Some leases also include certain free oil changes or other forms of necessary maintenance, potentially letting you avoid maintenance costs even if you have a longer lease. 3. You Don't Pay a Huge Down Payment Leases do have upfront costs, but they're often lower than a downpayment. Up front costs usually include taxes, registration, an acquisition fee, a refundable security deposit, and your first month's payment. With the refundable deposit and the lack of a downpayment on top of these fees, you could save some money up front. 4. You Get Better for Less Because monthly payments are often lower when leasing, you could choose to get a better vehicle for less money when compared to buying the same model. A higher trim or fancier model overall may have more convenience, entertainment, and comfort features you can enjoy at a great price. 5. You Have No Hassle Leasing a car is a pain-free process because you don't have to do very much. Really, all you need to do is discuss the terms of your lease, fill out a little paperwork, and pay the up front costs. There's no need to arrange financing, and you don't have to arrange to sell the car when the lease is up. At the end of the lease, you'll pay any end-of-lease fees and give the car back with no fuss. 6. You Get New Cars Often Leases usually last two to three years, meaning you'll get your next new car in 2027 or 2028 after leasing a 2025 model. This means you'll get access to new features and better technology in just a few years. If you continue to lease cars rather than buy them, then you'll always be driving a car with the best safety, entertainment, and convenience technology on the market, making your experience better and safer overall. Are you considering leasing your next Volkswagen? Come talk to us about it today at DeMontrond Volkswagen in Houston, TX.

A stylish taillight strip with an illuminated VW badge at its center runs across the rear fascia. Volkswagen also expands the color palette to include more vibrant colors. Drivers can now customize their Taos by painting the body in Bright Moss Green, Deep Black Pearl, Monterey Blue Pearl, or one of the existing metallic shades, such as Platinum Gray or Pyrite Silver. New Features Improved Performance Even the Taos' internal workings receive an upgrade for 2025 to maximize performance and efficiency. The 1.5-liter turbocharged TSI engine has been updated with a revised turbo housing, an enlarged intercooler, and new fuel injectors and piston rings, resulting is an increased output of 174 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. By making these few changes, VW has also managed to boost the Taos' fuel efficiency. Drivers can now expect to achieve an impressive 36 mpg when riding the highway and 28 mpg while driving around the city. Modernized Interior An interior makeover sees the new Taos decked out with soft-touch surfaces and black and gray cloth seating with contrast stitching for a more sporty look. VW also reconfigures the dashboard, with vehicle data now relayed to the driver via an eight-inch digital instrument display. Hovering above the central dash is an eight-inch infotainment touchscreen with Bluetooth technology, so you can wirelessly sync your smartphone and access your favorite apps. Volkswagen Car-Net is also included with every trim, allowing you to activate the Wi-Fi hotspot function and turn your Taos into a connectivity center. IQ.DRIVE Safety Technologies Every Taos, including the base S trim, is equipped with the IQ.DRIVE system, VW's advanced suite of driver-assist technologies that enhance every drive and help improve road safety. Assistance on the open highway comes from adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, rear cross-traffic alert, and blind-spot monitoring. Pedestrian detection, forward collision warning, and automatic braking are also standard, helping prevent accidents on busy city streets.

Volkswagen's highest priority is your safety. To reduce accidents, they've created IQ.DRIVE, a suite of advanced driver assistance features that is standard on every 2025 Volkswagen model. These advanced systems will alert you to danger you may not have seen so you can react and prevent a collision. Some of these Volkswagen safety features actively intervene to protect you and your passengers. We're going to look at a few of these features and see how they operate. Volkswagen Safety Features Available in Every 2025 Model Front Assist This feature watches the road ahead using an advanced radar and camera system. It can detect vehicles or pedestrians and then determine, based on the object's distance and your vehicle speed, if a risk of a collision exists. If it decides a collision is likely, a warning icon will appear on your screen and a warning tone sounds to alert you to danger so you can brake and prevent a collision. Emergency Assist This feature is active when you enable Front Assist, but it watches you, not the surrounding area. If you're driving when tired, your driving responses can be lethargic and your hands could slip from the wheel. This system monitors your grip on the wheel, and warning alerts will appear on your screen. You'll also hear an alarm sound to warn you to actively steer. If the warnings fail, Emergency Assist will take over by directing your Volkswagen into the lane center and gradually slowing and stopping your vehicle. Rear Traffic Alert When reversing, you may not see a vehicle passing behind you until it is too late. This system activates when you shift into reverse, and radar sensors at the rear watch the areas to the right and left for approaching vehicles, pedestrians, or motorcycles. If something is detected, your direction indicators on the corresponding side flash, and a warning appears on your screen. If your vehicle continues to move after the warning, the system applies hard braking to prevent an accident. Lane Assist This system protects you by keeping your Volkswagen centered in its lane. It's active at 35 mph or more and uses a camera to identify the line lines. Lane Assist will make minor steering adjustments to keep you safely centered in your lane. If your direction indicator is on or you're actively steering, this system will temporarily deactivate. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) This feature is useful on long drives, as you can set a specific speed and your Volkswagen will maintain it. You can also set a following distance from other vehicles, and ACC will slow down and even stop if a vehicle ahead slows or stops. These are just a few of the systems that will keep you safe in your new Volkswagen. Visit us today at DeMontrond Volkswagen in Houston, TX.

For example, when the navigation system is turned on, the ID. Light system will provide assistive lighting cues for upcoming turns in a blue light. If you bring the ID. 4 to an emergency stop, the ID. Light will flash red. This system will turn green when you receive incoming phone calls, and will light up white when the driver or passenger gives a voice command. 4.

While the wheels of your car may look fine, it's possible that they've come out of proper alignment. This will result in issues with steering, handling, and overall driving comfort, as explained below. The more frequently you visit your local VW dealership for wheel alignment, the better and safer your driving will remain. Let's look in more detail at the importance of routine wheel realignment. Essential Wheel Alignment for Your Volkswagen Causes of Misaligned Wheels Each of your car's wheels is held firmly in place, but sudden jolts from potholes or bumps against curbs can marginally adjust the suspension, altering the wheel's angle. Uneven tires, low tire pressure, worn-out suspension shocks or struts, and certain vehicle modifications might also push your wheels out of a perfectly parallel position. Car wheels can develop bad alignment in three ways: along the camber, toe, or caster angles. Camber misalignment is when the top of the tire leans inward or outward, toe misalignment means the front of a tire is leaning inward or outward, and caster faults mean a wheel's steering axis (swivel angle) is no longer perfectly vertical. Symptoms of Misaligned Wheels If your steering wheel feels disconcertingly loose or hesitant, you may have an alignment problem. Improper wheel angles might also cause the steering wheel to become off-center, forcing you to apply constant pressure with your hands merely to drive in a straight line. Errant wheel angles can also cause a car to veer slightly to one side. Excessively uneven tire wear might also point to alignment issues. It's unwise to keep driving with any of these problems; precise handling and firm tires are vital for safe and pleasurable driving. How Misalignment Is Solved A trusted technician can realign your wheels using specialist machinery. The process typically takes less than an hour and involves attaching an alignment machine to each wheel, which measures the camber, toe, and caster angles. Using extremely precise computerized readouts, our technicians can carefully adjust the suspension until each wheel is returned to its original factory positioning. Any underlying malfunctions such as uneven tires or worn-out suspension parts can also be repaired. Check Alignment Routinely at Your VW Dealership For optimal vehicle performance and safety, it's advisable to have your wheels realigned every six months when you visit for an oil change. At least have alignment checked this frequently; some drivers only need to have their wheels actually realigned every two or three years. For convenience, schedule routine wheel realignment along with other essential car services at your local dealership. Visit DeMontrond Volkswagen in Houston, TX, today to have the wheels of your car checked and set straight.

As your Volkswagen dealer, we want to tell you some of the ways we make choosing your new Volkswagen easy and stress-free. From Your Volkswagen Dealer: How We Make Financing Easier Easier Pre-Approval If you choose a bank for financing, you don't usually receive any assistance. You have to get your paperwork together, calculate what you want to spend, and complete your application. Then you have to visit the bank and wait.
