New Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport in Dublin, CA

Are you looking for a new mid-size SUV with a seriously stylish design inside and out? The new Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport could inspire any buyer, and might be just what you are looking for. It is a variation of the standard Atlas that is somewhat shorter in length and height, but for many buyers in the Dublin, CA area, it will be just the right size. In fact, it is easy to say that everything in this model is "just right." Let's explore why the Atlas Cross Sport is such a great addition to our inventory of new Volkswagen vehicles in Dublin, CA.

Performance

Take your pick from the standard 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine or the optional 3.6-liter V6 engine. The former delivers 235 horsepower, while the latter serves up 276 horsepower. This engine connects to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The standard drivetrain is front-wheel drive (FWD), but all-wheel drive (AWD) is available on some trim levels. The brakes provide a secure, linear, and smooth stop in a reasonable stopping distance.

Technology

Technology is a big part of what makes a new vehicle attractive to buyers, and the Atlas Cross Sport provides a robust list of features for your trips to San Ramon, CA. Smartphone app integration comes through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. On the base trim, there is a 6.5-inch touchscreen display, but you can upgrade to an 8-inch touchscreen on the next trim level. The SEL trades in the 8-inch gauge cluster for a 10.25-inch digital instrument display.

The SE with Technology trim level also makes smartphone app integration wireless, thereby eliminating cord clutter up front. This trim level adds a wireless charging pad and one 115-volt household-style power outlet. Upgrading to the SEL tacks on an integrated navigation system.

Interior and Exterior

The Atlas Cross Sport is all about sophisticated style. On the outside, you get standard LED headlights, a power liftgate, and 18-inch wheels forged from alloy. There are options for upgraded wheel sizes, including 20-inch alloy wheels done in a sleek black finish on the SEL R-Line Black trim level.

The SEL R-Line Black is a style-based trim, blacking out the badging and exterior trim. It also has a sportier sculpting for the body, headlights and taillights that have a darker tint to them, and a special R-Line steering wheel.

If you decide to upgrade to the highest trim level, the SEL Premium R-Line, you get upgraded to large 21-inch wheels and side mirrors that are power-folding. The attractive interior stands out with comfortable leather upholstered seats, and the front seats have ample side bolstering along with standard heating and ventilation. Plus, the rear outboard seats have a built-in heating function.

Key Features

There are plenty of other desirable features found on the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport. You can easily enter the vehicle using the standard proximity keyless entry and push-button start functions. In the back is a power liftgate for quick access to the cargo area. A dual-zone automatic climate control system comes on all but the base trim. Heated front seats are standard across the lineup, giving a real sense of luxury on even a base trim level.

There are also a bunch of advanced driver-assist features on the new model. You can use blind-spot warning and forward collision warning to navigate around Livermore, CA. Front and rear parking sensors come on all but the base trim and help with parking this big SUV. The SEL adds emergency assist, lane keep assist, and blind-spot intervention.
