Why the Volkswagen Atlas is Your Perfect Texas-Sized SUV

Bold Performance for Big Families in the Lone Star State

You know the saying. Everything’s bigger in Texas.

We take that to heart here at Volkswagen Cypress, which is home to some of the most impressive vehicles that have ever travelled the historic streets of Houston. When customers come through our doors wanting to go big with their next vehicle, we know they don’t just mean size. An SUV should have a big personality with plenty of performance and features to back it up. Just like your favorite western, the 2022 Volkswagen Atlas has officially entered the saloon, spurs janglin’, and is ready to start some trouble in the midsize SUV world.

Getting to Know the Family-Friendly Award-Winning Volkswagen Atlas

We go big here in Texas. Ask any of the other 49 states and they’ll tell you. So, if you’re looking for a VW SUV that can hold the parents, the kids, and all their book bags and football pads, the VW Atlas is the vehicle for you. It contains three rows and comfortably seats up to seven passengers, making it the SUV of choice for even the largest of families. Don’t take our word for it. Cars.com named the Volkswagen Atlas as the Family Car of the Year for the second year in a row. It’s also a PARENTS “Best Family Cars of 2021” winner. When it comes to creating top-of-the-line SUVs for families – even Texas-sized ones – VW clearly knows how to roll-out a vehicle that hits all the right notes.

The Volkswagen Atlas – Convenience and Safety Features Galore

In the true spirit of VW, the 2022 Volkswagen Atlas is everything you’d expect out of one of the nation’s top midsize SUVs. It’s tough and ruggedly built while also remaining quick and nimble for those times when you need to get from zero to sixty in a hurry.

And what VW SUV would be complete without a wealth of safety and convenience features? The highest trim level of the Atlas (SEL Premium R-Line) features App-Connect with wireless capability, a Discover Media touchscreen navigation system with 8” color display, multiple USB-C charging ports, remote start, SiriusXM with 360L (3-month trial subscription), a wireless smartphone charger with Bluetooth technology, and Volkswagen Digital Cockpit Pro, which finally gives drivers a fully-digital instrument cluster.

The Volkswagen Atlas doesn’t slouch when it comes to safety features, either. The 2022 model includes a rear view camera system, safety cage, intelligent crash response system (ICRS), automatic post-collision braking system, tire pressure monitoring system, and six stability-enhancing systems, just to name a few.

When you see a Volkswagen Atlas for sale on the VW Cypress lot, you’re not only getting one of most fun and affordable midsize SUVs on the market, you’re also getting a vehicle that keeps safety top-of-mind at all times.

With the Volkswagen Atlas You’re Always Covered

One of the big benefits of going with a new Volkswagen SUV for sale as opposed to used is the amazing coverage plan. Carefree Coverage comes standard with any brand-new VW SUV purchase, and include the following

2 yrs. Service – Scheduled Carefree Maintenance (2 years or 20,000 miles)
3 yrs. Help – Roadside Assistance (3 years or 36,000 miles)
