Cargo capacity is where the Atlas Cross Sport SE shines. This model boasts a maximum cargo space of 77.6 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded flat, which means it’s a breeze to fit small furniture, moving boxes, or large sporting equipment in the SUV. When the second-row seats are upright, the SE offers a cargo capacity of 40.3 cubic feet, which is enough space for camping gear, several large suitcases, and big pet crates.
Performance
The SE is exceptionally efficient, with an estimated gas mileage of 20 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the interstate. With a fuel tank capacity of 18.6 gallons, you can travel 372 urban miles or 483 highway miles, making it an ideal vehicle for long-range travel. Another notable spec is the maximum towing capacity of 5,000 lbs, which is ideal for hitching a small camper, a flat-tow trailer, or even a medium-sized boat.
The SE is powered by VW’s signature 2.0-liter I5 TSI motor that generates up to 269 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. You can enhance the eco-friendly nature of this crossover SUV with the engine start-stop system, which is designed to reduce fuel consumption by shutting off the engine in idling traffic.
Technology
The SE is equipped with iconic VW technology, such as the Digital Cockpit Pro. This digital cluster allows drivers to customize the layout of the digital gauges and select the information displayed behind the steering wheel. The 12-inch central touchscreen is compatible with App Connect, so you can seamlessly integrate your favorite smartphone apps on your in-cabin display.
The Atlas Cross Sport comes with convenience technology like KESSY, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, and heated and ventilated front seats to complement the Climatronic dual-zone climate control system. KESSY is VW’s keyless access system that can unlock all four doors and the liftgate so you can access your vehicle without inserting a physical key into the door locks.
Safety
The SE has Front Assist, an advanced safety system that bundles Forward Collision Warning with Autonomous Emergency Braking. With this system, your SUV can detect potential collisions with pedestrians and bicyclists, then intervene with automatic braking to prevent an accident. Features like Travel Assist and Lane Assist are also standard.
The Atlas Cross Sport is an athletic SUV fit for weekend adventurers and daily suburban drivers with flexible cargo space, convenient cabin technology, and smart safety features. Book a test drive when you call Tom Bush Volkswagen in Jacksonville, FL.
