2019 Volkswagen Atlas vs 2019 Ford Explorer

2019 Volkswagen Atlas vs 2019 Ford Explorer

Over the last few model years, SUVs have enjoyed a huge boom in popularity. That means many companies are coming out with all-new SUV lineups to try to keep up with the newly heightened demand for the body style. Most of these all-new models are nothing to write home about, however. Others, though, like the Volkswagen Atlas, have taken the SUV segment by storm.</p>

<p>When the new VW Atlas debuted during the 2018 model year, it instantly jumped to the head of its class thanks to its impressive combination of power, fuel efficiency, interior space, dynamic drivability and comprehensive suite of advanced new features. And that segment domination has continued into the 2019 model year, as you’ll quickly learn in this 2019 Volkswagen Atlas versus 2019 Ford Explorer head-to-head comparison.
