The 2025 Volkswagen Atlas is a spacious seven-seater that is equipped with all the features a modern family-friendly vehicle needs.

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.
