Whether you're seeking a daily driver with extra utility or a spacious and versatile family mover with advanced safety technologies, you can find a Volkswagen SUV to suit a wide range of needs and lifestyles. VW SUVs boast bold and sophisticated style, refined accommodations, and generously equipped trim levels across their lineups. And while they share many similar attributes, they feature numerous distinguishing characteristics that make each experience unique. But which one is right for you? To help point you in the right direction, here's a very quick look at their most important differentiators.
Volkswagen Tiguan
| Tiguan | |
|---|---|
 |
|
| Seating | 7 or 5 |
| L-W-H in. | 185.1 - 72.4 - 66.3 |
| Cargo Space (cu.ft.) | 7-seat: 12 / 33 / 65.7 5-seat: 37.6 / 73.5 |
| Headroom 1st/2nd/3rd (in.) | 39.6 / 39.1 / 33.8 |
| Legroom 1st/2nd/3rd (in.) | 40.2 / 36.5 / 27.9 |
It may be the smallest VW SUV in the lineup, but the Tiguan has big versatility. FWD models come with three rows and seating for seven, while AWD models seat five and offer a third-row as an available option. It's ideal for Arlington families seeking a vehicle with extra seatbelts and minimal space requirements or drivers looking to swap their sedan for something more versatile. Tiguan is powered by a 2.0-liter turbo-four and comes standard with collision mitigation, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert.
Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport
| Atlas Cross Sport | |
|---|---|
| Seating | 5 |
| L-W-H in. | 195.5 - 78.4 - 67.8 |
| Cargo Space (cu.ft.) | 40.3 / 77.8 |
| Headroom 1st/2nd (in.) | 39.4 / 37.8 |
| Legroom 1st/2nd (in.) | 41.6 / 40.4 |
Occupying the middle slot in VW's SUV lineup, the Atlas Cross Sport leverages its larger dimensions to provide more legroom for rear-seat passengers and greater cargo capacity. It's perfect for smaller families and commuters seeking enhanced roominess and cargo capacity and for whom exterior dimensions are less of a priority. The Atlas Cross Sport offers a choice of powerplants—a 2.0L turbo-four (235 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque) and a 3.6L V-6 (276 horsepower, 266 pound-feet of torque)—and offers standard equipment similar to the Tiguan.
Volkswagen Atlas
| Atlas | |
|---|---|
 |
|
| Seating | 7 |
| L-W-H in. | 198.3 - 78.3 - 77.0 |
| Cargo Space (cu.ft.) | 20.6 / 55.5 / 96.8 |
| Headroom 1st/2nd/3rd (in.) | 41.3 / 40.4 / 38.3 |
| Legroom 1st/2nd/3rd (in.) | 41.5 / 37.6 / 33.7 |
Volkswagen's largest passenger vehicle is intended for families seeking maximum interior accommodations and cargo space. It's equipped similarly to the Atlas Cross Sport, including powertrains, using its increased dimensions to fit a roomier third row and create almost 100 cubic feet of maximum cargo capacity.
