Volkswagen Atlas Exterior Dimensions
As you begin your walkaround tour of the Atlas, you will discover that the exterior measures 200.7 inches long, 78.3 inches wide (without the mirrors), and 70.4 inches tall. These figures together constitute a midsize crossover SUV, although one on the larger side. For example, the smaller Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport, which only has two rows of seating, is also considered a midsize vehicle.

Length | 200.7 in |

Width with mirrors extended | 88.5 in |
Height | 70.4 in |
Wheelbase | 117.3 in |
Ground clearance | 6.3 in |
These Volkswagen Atlas dimensions provide a good balance of support and maneuverability. On one hand, you can comfortably accommodate up to seven people. On the other hand, this vehicle is not so large and hefty that it is unwieldy to handle, and you can easily travel into the city with it. This vehicle has 6.3 inches of ground clearance, whether you pick a front- or all-wheel drive model.

Volkswagen Atlas Interior Dimensions
The VW Atlas for sale has up to 61.3 cubic feet of passenger room in the front row, up to 53.2 cubic feet in the second row, and 39.2 cubic feet in the third row. This means that while the first and second rows are useful for hosting adults, the third row may be best to save for kids or teens. Below, we look at how this cavernous maximum of 153.7 cubic feet of passenger room works out in more tangible terms:

---|---|
Seating capacity | 7 |
Maximum passenger volume | 153.7 cu ft |
Cargo volume behind third row | 20.6 cu ft |
Maximum cargo volume behind first row | 96.6 cu ft |
Headroom with sunroof (first row / second row / third row) | 40.1 in / 39.5 in / 38.3 in |
Headroom without sunroof (first row / second row / third row) | 41.3 in / 40.4 in / 38.3 in |
Legroom (first row / second row / third row) | 41.7 in / 37.6 in / 33.7 in |
Hip room (first row / second row / third row) | 58.4 in / 58.6 in / 45.1 in |
Shoulder room (first row / second row / third row) | 61.5 in / 60.5 in / 54.9 in |
Shoulder room and hip room will be more substantial if you opt for a trim that replaces the second-row bench seat that fits three people with two captain's chairs. While this reduces the overall seating capacity of the SUV to six, it also makes it easier to access the third row.

Volkswagen Atlas Cargo Space
In addition to loading your family into your vehicle for your road trip, you'll also need to pack all of your gear. Luckily, the available Volkswagen Atlas trunk space is also generous. Up to 20.6 cubic feet of bags or suitcases can fit into the space behind the third row. However, you can also choose to fold down the third-row seats to increase this storage space to 55.5 cubic feet.
Need more room than that? You can fold down all or part of the second row using the 60/40 split system in the standard three-person bench seat or the 50/50 split system if you're dealing with captain's chairs. With all of the second and third rows laid flat, you can access up to 96.6 cubic feet of VW Atlas cargo space. When you get a VW Atlas SE with Technology trim, loading and unloading becomes even easier thanks to a hands-free remote power liftgate.
All of the above doesn't even account for this vehicle's capacity to tow up to 5,000 pounds when properly equipped.
