2021 Volkswagen Atlas V6 SE W Technology

The 2021 Atlas is Volkswagen's largest SUV, a three-row family hauler that prioritizes passenger space over off-road pretense. It squares off against the Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, and Kia Telluride in the competitive three-row crossover segment. The Atlas drives with a steady, composed demeanor, and the V6 provides ample thrust for merging and passing. Its cabin is genuinely roomy, with a third row that fits adults and generous cargo space behind it. Standard safety tech includes forward collision warning and blind spot monitoring, with adaptive cruise control on higher trims. The SE W Technology gives you the V6 and all-wheel drive without stepping up to the SEL, saving a few thousand dollars while keeping most of the useful features. Its 3.6L I6 makes 276 horsepower and pairs with a eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, so it pulls strongly from a stop and feels confident in rain or light snow. The SE W Technology trim includes the larger touchscreen and satellite radio, so you get the upgraded infotainment without the SEL's leather seats.
