Volkswagen Reveals Newly Refreshed 2024 Atlas, Atlas Cross Sport Crossovers

Volkswagen has pulled the covers off its two biggest crossovers: the 2024 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport. The German automaker says in addition to a new face, the Atlas now has a ton of new tech features, and an upgraded and peppier interior. Since it’s 2023, VW added a front light bar to the sister vehicles, in keeping up with the rest of the industry.

The 2024 Atlas Exterior

Although this isn’t a major makeover for the Atlases, Volkswagen did update the exterior,  meant to significantly differentiate the two cars. Both have similarities including a wider, four-bar grille framed by LED headlights that are adaptive as standard. DRLs wrap around the headlights and transition into the aforementioned light bar with an illuminated VW logo beneath it on all trims aside from the base.

A pretty-much all-new front fascia with better integrated air intakes complete the look for the two crossovers. However, Cross Sports will feature gloss-black grille details as well as a gloss-black “X” design element across the lower fascia.

At the rear, both crossovers get a larger spoiler, elongating the roofline. Also, like the front fascia, trims above the base will have a light bar on the trunk lid — to mirror the one up front. The Cross Sport differentiates itself from the regular Atlas with a more aggressive rear diffuser than the previous model.

Both Atlas and Atlas Cross will have a choice of 18- to 21-inch wheels, dependent on the trim level you select.
