Explore 2018 Volkswagen SUV Models

The Touareg and Tiguan Limited leave the SUV stable this model year, leaving room for the others to step up their game including the new Atlas. The base build has a 235-horsepower, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The automaker makes safety the primary focus with this family-friendly vehicle with a slew of standard and available features including a 360-degree camera system, automatic emergency braking, and three child-safety seats. It also has some welcome perks like climatic manual air conditioning, a refrigerated glove box, and VW Car-Net internet access. The Tiguan holds the fort with a longer wheelbase, third-row seating, optional VW 4Motion with Active Control all-wheel drive for on- and off-road driving, and Digital Cockpit, all part of its redesign. Under the hood, there is a 184-horsepower, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The cabin has Android Auto-Apple CarPlay connectivity, a backup camera, USB port, and a six-speaker sound system standard.
