Las Principales Diferencias Entre los Modelos de los Años 2023 y 2024 Antes de profundizar en la comparación frente a frente, es útil saber qué cambios se hicieron entre los modelos de los años 2023 y 2024. En primer lugar, el modelo del año 2024 ha eliminado gradualmente el motor V6 de 3.6L opcional. Tanto el Atlas 2024 como el Atlas Cross Sport vienen ahora de serie con un motor de cuatro cilindros y 2.0L. Otro cambio importante es el aspecto general de ambos SUV. Los Atlas y Atlas Cross Sport 2024 presentan un aspecto más moderno, que incluye: Luces traseras de ancho completo Faros en forma de C Parrillas actualizadas Logotipo VW frontal iluminado Barra de luces Diseños de rueda actualizados Alerón trasero grande Materiales y diseño del interior mejorados Nuevo sistema de iluminación ambiental Pantalla de infoentretenimiento ampliada de 12 pulgadas Los asientos delanteros calefactados y ventilados y los volantes calefactados eran dos características que antes sólo estaban disponibles con los acabados de nivel superior en los modelos 2023. Ahora vienen de serie tanto en el Atlas 2024 como en el Atlas Cross Sport. Similitudes Entre el Volkswagen Atlas 2024 y el Atlas Cross Sport Las similitudes entre el Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport y el Atlas estándar son tan numerosas que algunas personas piensan que son el mismo vehículo a primera vista. Para empezar, ambos SUV vienen equipados con el mismo motor 2.0L Turbo y transmisión automática de 8 velocidades con Tiptronic. También están cabeza a cabeza en términos de rendimiento, proporcionando a los conductores 269 caballos de fuerza y 273 libras-pie de torque. Ambos SUV también tienen la misma economía de combustible estimada, marcando un estimado por la EPA de 20 millas por galón en la ciudad y 27 millas por galón en la carretera. Además, ambos SUV comparten gran parte de la misma tecnología y características. Por ejemplo, IQ.DRIVE viene de serie, que es un conjunto de funciones de asistencia al conductor que emiten alertas audiovisuales para ayudarle a mantenerse fuera de peligro. Tanto el Volkswagen Atlas como el Atlas Cross Sport también incluyen la aplicación myVW, que funciona mediante varios comandos a distancia y ofrece herramientas e información útil sobre el vehículo, como el historial de servicio y recordatorios. Por último, el Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport y el Atlas estándar están cubiertos por la misma garantía, conocida como Cobertura Carefree. Incluye mantenimiento, asistencia en carretera, funciones a distancia y una garantía limitada para vehículos nuevos. Principales Diferencias Entre el Atlas y el Atlas Cross Sport Ahora que ya sabe lo que el Volkswagen Atlas y el Atlas Cross Sport tienen en común, hablemos de lo que es diferente. En primer lugar, el VW Atlas tiene una tercera fila de asientos, lo que significa que puede alojar cómodamente hasta siete pasajeros; en comparación, el VW Atlas Cross Sport tiene una capacidad máxima de cinco pasajeros en dos filas de asientos. Otra gran diferencia entre estos dos nuevos SUV de Volkswagen es la capacidad de almacenamiento. Con los asientos traseros abatidos, el Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport tiene una capacidad máxima de almacenamiento de 77.6 pies cúbicos. El Atlas estándar tiene una capacidad máxima de almacenamiento de 96.8 pies cúbicos. Por último, existen algunas ligeras variaciones en el precio. Por ejemplo, el acabado Volkswagen Atlas SL Premium R-Line tiene un PVPR inicial de $52,455. El mismo acabado para el Atlas Cross Sport es ligeramente inferior, $51,445. Tenga en cuenta que este MSRP puede variar según la fecha y el lugar. A la hora de elegir entre el Volkswagen Atlas y el Atlas Cross Sport, los conductores deben considerar si necesitan los asientos y el espacio de almacenamiento extra que ofrece el Atlas. Si no es así, puede que se sientan más cómodos en un SUV de tamaño medio que tenga algo menos de volumen.

The Main Differences Between the 2023 and 2024 Model Years Before delving into the head-to-head comparison, it’s helpful to know what changes were made between the 2023 and 2024 model years. First, the 2024 model year has phased out the optional 3.6L V6 engine. Both the 2024 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport now come standard with a 2.0L four-cylinder engine. Another major change is the overall look and feel of both SUVs. The 2024 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport feature a more modern look, including: Full-width taillamps C-shaped headlamps Updated grilles Illuminated front VW logo Light bar Updated wheel designs Large rear spoiler Upgraded interior materials and design New ambient lighting system Expanded 12-inch infotainment display Heated and ventilated front seats and heated steering wheels were two features that were previously only available with upper-level trims on the 2023 models. They now come standard on both the 2024 Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport. Similarities Between the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport The similarities between the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and standard Atlas are so numerous that some people think they're the same vehicle at first glance. For starters, both SUVs come outfitted with the same 2.0L Turbo engine and 8-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic. They also are neck and neck in terms of performance, providing drivers with 269 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Both SUVs also have the same estimated fuel economy, clocking in at an EPA-estimated 20 miles per gallon in the city and 27 miles per gallon on the highway. Further, both SUVs share much of the same technology and features. For example, IQ.DRIVE comes standard, which is a suite of driver assistance features that issue audio-visual alerts to help keep you out of harm’s way. Both the Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport also come with the myVW app, which operates using several remote commands and offers tools and useful information about the vehicle, such as service history and reminders. Finally, the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and standard Atlas are covered under the same warranty, known as Carefree Coverage. It includes maintenance, roadside assistance, remote features, and a new vehicle limited warranty.
