Read more2021 Volkswagen Atlas vs. 2021 Toyota Highlander: A Better Family Hauler
Volkswagen improved the Atlas yet again for the 2021 model year. The external design features updated streamlining and new headlights that add style, and more wheel selections and more available equipment that help create an individualized vehicle. The Atlas also offers two Canada-ready powertrains and a fantastic warranty to help you drive with confidence.
To help illustrate the excitement of the Atlas, we compare it to the 2021 Toyota Highlander.
The 2021 Volkswagen Atlas generates value
With the fluctuations of weather and road conditions throughout Canada, it is a plus to have an advanced all-wheel drive system. Every Atlas features standard 4MOTION AWD, whereas the Toyota Highlander does not offer an AWD system on every model. A trim level upgrade is required to access this important equipment.
The Atlas also features more value with an exceptional new vehicle warranty. Each model includes a 4-year / 80,000 km new vehicle limited warranty. This adds a year beyond the Highlander's 3 year / 60,000 km warranty. The Atlas also adds a 5-year / 100,000 km powertrain limited warranty, 7-years / unlimited kilometre perforation warranty, and a 4-year / 80,000 km roadside assistance warranty. Atlas owners have a better peace of mind knowing that Volkswagen designs their vehicles to last.
The 2021 Volkswagen Atlas expands for your family
Volkswagen designed the Atlas to accommodate the needs of families, and that means a roomy interior. Behind the front seats and with the remaining seats folded, the Atlas produces nearly 2,741 litres of cargo volume. Comparatively, the Highlander provides just under 2,390 litres. The difference is about the size of a sedan's trunk area. The Atlas also has more cargo volume behind the second row.
It is even more important that all occupants feel the size difference, too. The front and second rows feature more headroom and shoulder room than the Highlander. The third row has more legroom and headroom than its competitor. Your family will thank you on long trips.
The Atlas also offers other features that you won't find with the Highlander. Like the R-Line package, which brings unique elements like Braselton alloy wheels, brushed stainless steel pedals in aluminum look, R-Line exterior design and the R-Line leather-wrapped multifunction heated sport steering wheel.
