Ahead of its launch this fall, Volkswagen has announced the redesigned Atlas will start at $41,610 before a $1,525 destination fee. That’s a significant jump as its predecessor began at $39,310 and had a lower $1,475 delivery charge.

 

While the $2,350 price hike is tough to swallow, the 2027 Atlas is more luxurious and powerful. The entry-level SE variant features LED lighting units, keyless entry, a motion-activated power liftgate, and 18-inch alloy wheels.
