2026 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport Trim Levels with Prices, Photos, & Specs
The Atlas Cross Sport is a sporty and stylish alternative to the conventional Atlas. It gets rid of the third row of seats in favor of more cargo space, and a full trim lineup helps you dial in just the version of the Atlas Cross Sport that’s right for you. Fortunately, every trim comes with a potent, 269-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, and all-wheel drive is either available or standard on every trim. But to make an informed decision about which trim will suit you best, you need to know the trim breakdown, and that’s what the following guide is for.
