Read moreReduce Driving Stress: 2024 Volkswagen Atlas Includes IQ.DRIVE Suite
When it comes to family vehicles, safety should be the top priority. With the all-new Volkswagen Atlas, you get the best of both worlds - cutting-edge safety features and unparalleled driver convenience. At the heart of this innovative SUV lies Volkswagen's IQ.DRIVE technology, now standard across all trim levels.
IQ.DRIVE is an intelligent suite of active safety and driver assistance capabilities designed to protect you and those around you. It features hands-on semi-automatic functions to reduce driver fatigue on long highway trips while keeping a watchful eye for potential obstacles in city driving.
So what exactly does IQ.DRIVE offer? Standard on every Atlas is Front Assist with autonomous emergency braking that can detect pedestrians and cyclists. It will warn you of an impending collision and automatically apply the brakes if needed. The Lane Change System Side Assist uses bright LED alerts to prevent dangerous lane changes, while Rear Traffic Alert minimizes blind spot risks when reversing.
But IQ.DRIVE goes far beyond just warnings. The advanced Travel Assist system combines adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assistance, and emergency intervention - allowing the Atlas to partially drive itself by maintaining speed and lane centering. If you become incapacitated, Emergency Assist can safely bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
Park Distance Control comes standard to help with tight parking situations, but you can opt for the Area View 360° camera and Park Assist on higher trims. A Head-Up Display projects critical driving data onto the windshield for seamless information access.
The diverse Atlas lineup means there's a configuration for every need and budget. The well-equipped Comfortline starts at $50,495, while the rugged Peak Edition ($54,495) and upscale Highline ($57,495) add luxurious touches. For the ultimate tech experience, the range-topping Execline R-Line ($60,495) incorporates a sleek R-Line design package.
No matter which Atlas you choose, IQ.DRIVE ensures you and your loved ones benefit from Volkswagen's most advanced safety cocoon yet. With its perfect blend of cutting-edge driver aids and premium amenities, the Atlas is the ideal companion for modern family life on the go. Why compromise when you can have it all?
