Your family deserves the best. And this starts with enough room for passengers and cargo. The Volkswagen Atlas provides more interior space than the Hyundai Palisade. When it is full of passengers, the Hyundai Palisade leaves only 509 litres of cargo space in the rear. Even when passenger rows are folded down, the total available cargo volume only increases to 2,447 litres.

The Volkswagen Atlas makes it easier to travel thanks to 583 litres of cargo behind the third row. Fold the rows and get a whopping 2,741 litres of space to fit materials, furniture and equipment.

While the Palisade’s interior used budget-oriented materials and textures, Atlas passengers take advantage of a superior cabin in terms of fit and finish, but also in terms of technology. It is filled with practical elements like the IQ.Drive safety system, the Car-Net features that let you control your Atlas remotely and even an available Fender premium audio system, among many other high-end features.

The Atlas is offered with standard 4MOTION all-wheel-drive, which is an essential in Canada, especially when you need to conquer difficult winter conditions.
