2018 Volkswagen Atlas - The Biggest People Car Ever Made!

[@Pboy7272]

Knows more about the vehicles he reviews than 95% of the salesman who sell them. Great vids, thank you 👏

[@ogtekneeq705]

I just got my Atlas SEL Premium 2 days ago, I love this car!

[@tennwhitetrash]

You still liking your Atlas?

[@Majibu101]

[@edmiranda2980]

how it holding up to this day?

[@mitchellmitchell6938]

Has it fallen apart yet?

[@UR86]

Is it still alive?

[@johnnguyenfoto]

Was going a lot of research before I picked up the Atlas, this was the best review that gave me the info that I needed.

[@sternme]

When I bought the Atlas SEL AWD in June 2017, it was after exhaustive comparisons. I had to replace my Audi. I wanted the perfect family station wagon (not a race car) with AWD, lots of space, and ground clearance. We'd driven the Mazda CX-9 the summer of 2016 and liked it, but in 2017 when we were in the market to buy, we discovered the CX-9 had no air vents for the 3rd row and it was so much smaller inside compared to the Atlas. Highlander was better, but the spaciousness/luxury of the Atlas, 6 yr.72,000 warrantee, and Appleplay won us over. The Atlas was so much bigger inside than its rivals, and we did go for the SEL. I hated all lower models because only the SEL package has front adjustable passenger seat. There's no height adjustment in lower models for front passenger. Only downside to the VW that I hope they'll improve is larger gas tank (range on road trip was about 330-350miles) and fuel consumption. I did identify an error in the owner's manual on the SEL model that got them to rewrite it... no place to mount a front plate if you have the SEL radar... as owners manual said you can't block the region where it was supposed to be mounted. We didn't want to drill the front bumper cover, so my plate is hanging by zip ties down below. A tow hook would've been nice for an aftermarket plate holder but there's only one tow hook, and its in the back bumper. Besides that, the Atlas is awesome... We love it, and it IS bigger inside than the Audi Q7, and less annoying and worrisome with less gadgets and gizmos that can break or be broken. Q7 isn't a proper family car for little kids, because you're going to flip a bitch over the smallest thing (like kids playing in grandma's parlor) if someone touches something wrong or spills something. You drive a car IT WILL GET SCRATCHED or breathed on wrong. The Atlas SEL is pricey but is perfect for mixture of perfect functionality for the family and luxury. Plus it feels a little more exclusive being less of them are on the road. I bought my the first few weeks it was available and no one had one. AND when the crash tests came out later I discovered how much safer it is than the rivals including the Ford Explorer

[@sternme]

Also another key feature we loved was the ability to access the third row seats without the need to remove car seats from the second row. The Atlas can hold 5 car seats... three across the 2nd row. (we only have two kids, but it was neat knowing that for when we haul cousins)

[@fidelbanuelos9601]

Great review. Thanks. The smaller gas tank is what's making me hesitate on the Atlas. I drive 50 miles/day for work so more fill-ups.

[@justinfontaine5539]

I went with the CX-9. More car like handling and economy.

[@WDavid-bm9jd]

I agree with what you talked about, I have a 2019 Atlas SEL premium few months ago, that’s a very good family car in the market, very comfortable and huge room to accommodate anything, V6 engine is getting better after several months driving, it’s not the race car, but very down-to-earth car, good-looking car

[@joshuakerstein9573]

M S are you saying you replaced a 2nd Gen with the atlas and your stoked?

[@marckruse2181]

We bought our Atlas two years ago and love it. You see a lot of VW Atlases in the SC Upstate. Very practical 3-row SUV for families with the need for space and comfort.

Update on the vehicle?

[@awroclaw8663]

I got SEL 5 months ago and still like it. Do not feel it's underpowered. Space and practicality are great. It has some glitches but nothing major. To be expected from first year product.

[@fldashxam]

I saw one in person for the first time. I really liked it. You guys really need to give this a chance.

[@BossChronicles]

Looks like a great car for a Road trip big comfortable feel safe

[@jeffs6090]

I can't wait for the Atlas Cross Sport! That will be amazing! Way above this version.

[@Ryukachoo]

Whoever first makes an upper tier 7 seater suv that's ELECTRIC and gets 300 miles of range for around 40k starting will basically win at cars in America for years. Since for normal buyers their only reason for not getting massive cars like this is gas mileage

[@Ryukachoo]

SykoChiipmunK Which is why I mentioned being electric

[@robs2765]

SykoChiipmunK the Hyundai isn’t electric

[@KB-bh9hp]

Ryukachoo Look to ford. They've announced they'll have a 300 mile range ev suv out in a few yrs. Although they weren't confirmed to be the same product, they recently teased what this crossover may be, the mach 1, basically the teaser showed a explorer, aka a 7 seater suv and a mustang basically going into a garage to make a hybrid love child. A hybrid sports ford suv? Sign me up lol.

[@KB-bh9hp]

Ryukachoo But we also don't know if this suv will be entirely electric or a hybrid, srry should have mentioned that. I believe ford said this suv with a 300 mile range will be all electric.

[@robs2765]

[@sheldrake1111]

FYI, the levers on top of the second row seats are double hinged which means you can pull it towards you when you want to bring it back and you’re sitting in the third row. Very convenient.

[@the1reef.243]

For people saying that the Pilot is unreliable, The 9 speed was fixed in fall time with a recall and the 18 Pilot Elite and Touring won’t have the shifting problem. Most people buy the EX-L for the 6 speed. I have a CAD spec EXL RES, Amazing car, rides great and looks are sleek.

[@speedkar99]

A good first try VW. Build quality, fuel economy and lack of power are still major cons though, hopefully they work on that for the refresh.

[@AW_2000]

I'm sorry, what do you need more than 300bhp for?

[@apb1236]

Sheth Jones not necessarily compared to anything, but moreso it seems to be par for the course for many companies as of late, with VW being one of the largest offenders. Probably ok for this class of vehicle, but they are doing it in Audis, too. Compare the interior of a Q5 to that of a Volvo XC60 for the same price....

[@mayurthumma]

I have had 2018 SE Atlas for 2 years and I love this car. Although, I feel VW should have given this car more torque, I feel power is enough for a family vehicle. I have driven this car 3 times cross country from san francisco to new york over I-80 and it was always quite a comfortable drive. It is very stable on turnings and drives pretty smooth.

Thanks for the wonderful review. Hopefully you guys can do a review as well in the snow comparing the 2.0 and the v6 AWD how it handles. Thanks!

[@Sijray21]

Would've nice to have seen a more popular trim covered. SEL premium is around $50k vs the more likely candidate (SE - ~$34k). No mention of the class leading 6yr/72k mile bumper-to-bumper warranty? That's pretty impressive. The LED headlights are a nice touch for all trims on the atlas. That irked me about the new tiguan where you can only get the LED headlights with that top of the line model....

[@edinmujkic6110]

Great practicality. Wife and I went to check it with enthusiasm. Were really impressed with interior and practicality. Great feeling, upbeat impressions until I stepped on gas pedal. Cannot remember when I drove last time such underpowered car. Few days ago tried Dodge Durango R/t. I think I will get that, and I always owned European cars. I have VW Tiguan, and we need one more vehicle, a real 7 seater. We were convinced Atlas will be the one. But engine is so disappointing. Sorry VW, I guess you forgot your loyal customers.

Nice job cold starting and revving the hell out of the engine. Definitely good for it👍🏼

[@RazgrizF14]

The Atlas SEL Premium has the ability to also perpendicularly park itself, not just parallel park. But it will only get you out of a parallel parking spot in auto mode, it is not fully automatic though, when you are using the self parking for parallel and perpendicular, and for getting out of a parallel parking spot, you still have to work the gas, the break and the shifter. That car does the steering, you just have to follow the directions on the screen.

Nice looking vehicle. I agree it will age well and be relevant style wise for 10years easy. Like the roof!! I am the guy still hoping Dodge Grand Caravan gets a huge refresh. Seriously though for a family it truly is difficult to get a vehicle that simply does all that the caravan does.... But perhaps this crossover pulls it off... great cargo area. Very needed for many trips to beach to water parks.. vacations... camping... the stuff real families do!!

[@MrHav1k]

@Pube83, they've extended their bumper to bumper warranty to a fully 6 years 72k miles, so that alone indicates they've improved the reliability or are just trying to build goodwill backup. German cars aren't known for their reliability, particularly of their electronics, but in general, the performance, safety, and technology (if you want it) that you get in them make up for the fault of reliability. At least in my mind. Their just well made vehicles and their safety particularly is the differentiating factor for me compared to some Japanese or American tin can piece of shit.

Can you tell us if your test was conducted with 87 octane fuel or 91 plus? Just learned from brochure that published HP and torque figures are achieved with premium fuel. Could explain some of the sluggishness if it was tested with regular. Would be less shifty of VW if they said premium was recommended for max performance, with 87 octane specified as minimum required.

The engine is pretty good, but as he stated, u have to really put your foot on it to pass and overtake cars at about 80 mph, with the AC on. It felt a bit top heavy for some reason, and it was practically new. The head unit display is exactly as he stated, easy to use and clear. Gas mileage wasn't that good either. I am fortunate to have a company gas card, so i started with 87, then tried the 93 octane. No big difference. Leatherette is not that bad, co workers who got in could not tell the difference. I had 2018 pathfinder previous week w/ 7 miles, and plastics still on the bumpers and wheel rims. BEST FUEL ECONOMY EVER, and i abused that as well. Just didn't like the CVT.

At the same time, I found that the engine was seriously leaking oil. The whole vehicle suddenly stopped running two times so far, You have to restart before you can drive. The problem has not been completely solved by looking for manufacturers and distributors many times. This problem brings a lot of troubles to my life, and I lose my confidence in Volkswagen. This case can be used for your reference when you want to buy a SAIC Volkswagen.

Fake exhaust is lame

[@djayt1215]

masterwhopper414 it's not an electric vehicle, how can it have fake exhaust ?

[@TheSovietHotDog]

D Jay T fake exhaust tips. They’re most likely hidden under the car and has the exhaust tips for looks

[@tgwoolshire]

, they're not fake what's the echo hitch video

Quasi-Dual Stainless Steel Exhaust is the system used with the 6cyl 4motion

I wish you would review the volume sales models for your vehicles. Most people do NOT get the top trims so the reviews are less relevant and accurate

Have already seen 3 of these in my area recently, the truck still catches me off guard when I see it however. For a moment I think "has Jeep made a bloated Grand Cherokee?"

00:57, a little curious what was out that windshield you couldn't keep your eyes off. :-)

[@MartinezFAMHawaii]

It doesnt look aggressive, but I like the panoramic sunroof though!

[@The_Eastbound_Hyena]

YEAH! It needs a dead baby hanging from the grill... ARRRGGHHH!!!💥

[@NileshR12]

The interior looks so clean, classy, functional, elegant. Nothing crazy. Does it have ambient lighting though? Also, this seems like a better value-priced alternative & more spacious than the Lincoln Aviator. I know they don't exactly compare size-wise & price-wise but a well-equipped to fully-loaded Reserve or Black Label trim is very expensive for a lease 😂. This would more affordable for a lease

I saw "stinger" sunglass holder in the console. Does Sofyan own a Kia?

[@tungol00]

I like the design and the space inside it's very useful for a large family but they need to make the fuel mileage more competitive and more horse power is needed, specially where I live where we have high elevation.

As I have posted in other SUV reviews, we test drove just about every mid size SUV on the market over a 3 week period, I actually avoided the Atlas because of the price point, my dumb ass somehow got the price of the Audi Q7 mixed up with the Atlas, anyways, as ever, I have to agree with Redline, this would have been an easy first choice except that VW decided to give it a gutless engine, other than that it is a great SUV, put the supercharged V6 in it or a V8 and this thing will fly off the lots....BTW we ended up going for a Volvo XC 60 T6.....A lot more money, but my lord what a great SUV.

[@Goodoldm]

Does it come in 4x4 for off-roading ?

[@chrissy3083]

But no TV screen or DVD players?

[@marioStortuga]

There's an option for screens
