VW Atlas Exterior Review

Anyone who enjoyed the previous Atlas models is going to be blown away by the style of this all-new Volkswagen SUV. The Atlas arrives with a bold front end with unique headlamps and a dynamic grill pattern. The front and rear of the Atlas have an illuminated exterior light bar with a glowing Volkswagen emblem in the rear. The styling is finished off with roof rails that come in black as the stock option or silver for higher Atlas trim packages. If this design review has you intrigued, take a look at our new Atlas inventory.

What are the Atlas rim sizes?

The rim size depends on which Atlas trim level you buy. The base Atlas SE model comes with 18-inch alloy wheels. If you upgrade to the SE with Technology package or the SEL, the rim size is bumped up to 20-inch alloy rims. Finally, the SEL Premium R-Line Atlas comes stock with 21-inch rims. The styling of each rim size is slightly different, but they each have a silver face finish with black sides.

Volkswagen Atlas Peak Edition Breakdown

For those interested in an all-black Volkswagen rim, the Peak Edition package offers that and much more. The Atlas Peak comes in two special colors: Avocado Green and Pure Gray. The trim, mirror caps, and roof rails are all painted black, giving the Atlas an even more rugged look. The Atlas Peak also features black leather seating with orange stitching. One of our favorite parts of the Peak has to be the backlit dash that reveals the Peak edition logo.
