The 2020 VW Atlas Cross Sport SUV from Volkswagen has been generating interest gradually as it comes across as an improved version of the three row Atlas. If that was a trifle box life, the 2020 Atlas promises fun for the entire family with 5 being able sit comfortably. It may not be enough for a huge family but it comes with extended cargo space making it perfect for weekend trips.

You would also be able to choose between the traditional "235-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder" and "276-hp 3.6-liter V-6 "with front-wheel drive. You do have an extra option of going for the "4Motion all-wheel drive" of VW as well. Check with the Auto body shop or dealership for Volkswagen Greensboro NC before making the final decision when you are plagued with doubts. Unfortunately, there is not much of power boost here but the compact size of the Cross Sport gives it a trifle more edge over the conventional Atlas.

Here are a few other things that you need to consider as well:-

Similarity

VW has not quite strayed from its tried and tested formula this time. The 2020 VW Atlas Cross is not startlingly different from the previous version. In fact, it is placed on an identical chassis and employs the same kind of powertrain & wheelbase. The trim levels as well as the color options remain similar too. However, the 2020 version VW Atlas Cross Sport SUV has interested the mid market section who find the Atlas attractive but do not care too much for the third row.

Differences

There have been minor changes in the design and length with the Cross Sport being shorter in length by 2.8 inches. Moreover, it features a sloping roofline that is more in the line with the SUV Coupe. This can be a bit of disadvantage for passengers sitting in the rear end. They are bound to lose a bit of headspace with the space for cargo being curtained as well. This is not a great worry though as the Cross Sport remains a practical vehicle.

Driving

The test drives have proved to be revealing with this SUV driving like a dream. It sprints along the highways that are smooth and well maintained while not stalling on cracked parts or bumps either. The option of V6 engine does not make it particularly powerful, however. There is no improvement in speed and paying extra for theV6 engine is not going to be worth your money. There is a kicker here though. You would find the V6 engine beneficial when you have to tow. This option comes with a towing package that could be helpful for certain car owners.

The driving aids and technology have been ramped up in Atlas Cross Sport making it a practical automobile with car owners having a number of impressive add-ons to choose from. It would definitely help to check out the available information along with test drive reviews from the nearest of Volkswagen Greensboro service center before rushing to buy it.
