The 2025 Volkswagen Atlas is a petrol SUV with AWD and seating for 7. It belongs to the Gen 2 generation. The SE 2.0T is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured SE 2.0T version develops 269 hp and 370 Nm (273 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 6.8 seconds, which is responsive rather than outright performance-focused. Top speed is listed at 195 km/h (121 mph). Its power output is close to the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 6% quicker than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 10.2 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 68.0 litres (18.0 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 233 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 5,058 mm (199.1 in) in length, 1,979 mm (77.9 in) in width, and 1,787 mm (70.4 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,979 mm (117.3 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 583 litres (20.6 cu ft), expanding to 2,741 litres (96.8 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 7 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,030 kg (4,475 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 2,268 kg (5,000 lb). That cargo volume is close to the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol SUV models from the same period, the 2025 Volkswagen Atlas is strongest on price. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
