<p>Volkswagen has invested a lot of time and resources into rebuilding its lineup with a focus towards SUVs. One of those more talked about models is the seven-seater 2018 Volkswagen Atlas that was designed specifically for the North American market. It's expected to come to dealerships in the spring of 2017.  </p> <p>The Atlas will be built on the MQB platform and sits low and wide – an overall good looking vehicle. Two engine choices are offered: a turbocharged, 238-hp 2.0-litre inline-four and a 3.6-litre V-6 that produces 280 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. Front- or all-wheel-drive setups are offered with both options being matched to a new eight-speed automatic transmission.</p>
