Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport
Model Overview
The Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport is a mid-sized SUV that serves as a spiritual successor to the Touareg. Based on the larger, three-row Atlas, the Cross Sport is a five-seater whose lower roof lends it a sleeker look. Think of the Cross Sport as VW’s answer to the likes of the BMW X6 or Porsche Cayenne Coupe in its combination of all-wheel drive confidence and a more car-like profile.
