New 2026 Volkswagen Atlas SE

The Atlas was one of 4 finalists for us. The others were the GMC Acadia, the Chevrolet Edge, the Infiniti QX60, and the Ford Edge. We only had 4 models to choose from. The rest of the cons are really just details. The biggest gripe I have is the engine power. Given that my primary goal with this vehicle is to comfortably get a lot of people from point A to B, this isn’t a huge deal. I didn’t buy this car to qualify for the Indy 500, but I do wish VW offered some different engine options, like a V-8 or a turbo V-6. They do offer a turbo 4 cylinder, but it is not offered above the base trim level, and I don’t think it is anything more than adequate for this car anyway.
