Powertrain and performance

The 2027 Volkswagen Atlas retains the 2.0 L turbocharged four-cylinder engine found in the 2026 Atlas.

For the 2027 model, this engine is better configured and now develops an additional 13 horsepower, while showing a combined fuel consumption reduced to about 10.0 L/100 km.

Here is a summary of the specifications for the 2027 Volkswagen Atlas:

Feature

2027 Volkswagen Atlas

Engine

2.0 L turbocharged 4 cyl.

Horsepower / torque

282 horsepower / 273 lb-ft

Combined fuel consumption

About 10.0 L/100 km

As usual, the Atlas offers performance comparable to what you find on the spec sheet of the VW Atlas Cross Sport.

4MOTION all-wheel drive

The 4MOTION drivetrain, offered on several Volkswagen vehicles, including the 2027 Atlas, is an intelligent all-wheel drive system.

It automatically switches between front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive to minimize fuel consumption or increase vehicle stability depending on road conditions.

The 2027 Volkswagen Atlas 4MOTION is, therefore, an SUV suitable for those who want the best of both worlds.

Towing capacity

The towing capacity of the 2027 Volkswagen Atlas can reach 5,000 lb.

A 5,000 lb. capacity is often ideal for those who like to plan family outdoor getaways, since it is possible to tow a small camper or two ATVs with ease.

Exterior design: a new style for the 2027 Atlas

Exterior design of the black 2027 Volkswagen Atlas.

The Atlas arrives in 2027 with a new style that reinvents its iconic design.

At the front, two-level LED headlamps frame two available light strips that meet at the Volkswagen emblem in the centre. In addition, the upper radiator grille is concealed, which gives the 2027 Atlas an even more modern look.

At the rear, the more pronounced spoiler extends the Atlas silhouette, and the full-width taillights give the vehicle an even more robust appearance.

In short, the 2027 Atlas is even more modern while staying true to the Volkswagen style.

Cabin, comfort and technology

Available 15-inch infotainment display

The 2027 Atlas reinvents infotainment. In fact, in addition to an available 15-inch display on higher trims, every Atlas offers, at minimum, a 12.9-inch screen designed to provide easy access to the SUV's new VW features.

Among these, we already see additions to the IQ.DRIVE driver assistance suite, in particular:

  • Highway driving assist with lane change
  • Advanced parking assist
  • And more

Available Harman Kardon sound system

For audiophiles, the Harman Kardon sound system already available in the Atlas is improved. The 2027 Atlas offers a 14-speaker Harman Kardon premium sound experience, ideal for the whole family.

Materials and interior finish

For 2027, the quality of the materials is elevated inside the 2027 Volkswagen Atlas. You will now find genuine wood accents as well as available materials such as Nappa leather for the seats.

Dimensions, comfort and cargo space

Without exact data on the interior space and dimensions of the 2027 Volkswagen Atlas, we do know it retains the same height and width as the 2026 model. The 2027 Atlas is slightly longer.

This added length could translate into more room in the 7-seat Atlas, both for passengers and for luggage.
