Do you like your Atlas?

Anonymous
Reviews are pretty mixed online. It checks all of our boxes but I'm just wondering why its not more popular, what am I missing?

Ohhhhh, a car called Atlas, not a Car Atlas.

VWs are not reliable and are expensive to fix (pricey parts and labor).

This reputation (reality) also makes them depreciate quickly.

Many people buying a midrange family SUV don’t like these attributes.

I love them. Test drive two.

They are a good value when you just look at purchase price if you want a 3 row SUV, but if you plan on keeping it beyond a few years it will get you back in repairs.

I loved mine - had to sell it bc we moved overseas. Miss it everyday.

We sold ours this summer for what we bought it for 18 months prior.

I've noticed a lot of these on the road lately. I have no idea why, but I feel like its drivers have overthrown BMW as the most obnoxious. Does it have assist programs that are faulty, and give a false idea of those around them?

They are very popular in rental car fleets because it is a fairly inexpensive 7-seat SUV compared to the alternatives.

Love ours. We've had it since 2017. We haven't had any repairs beyond fixing a couple small manufacturer recall items and normal upkeep. It's been a great car.

I notice the same thing. The Atlas is a dog with both engines and filled with nasty hard plastic, but I think the drivers have a superiority complex of big SUV + "German" car built in Tennessee so they drive it like a Porsche.

No. That would be Tesla drivers.

Comfortable.

Consumer Reports lists the only negative as being "too wide for tight parking spaces".

Oh man I've totally noticed this! They're not parked very well, either. If you have an enormous car, take the time to park it with consideration guys.

I like ours a lot. We’ve had it for two years and pretty much lived out of it on a six week road trip. Bought used and haven’t needed any major repairs yet. It’s a 2019.
