Volkswagen presented the new VW T-Cross, the company's first small SUV, and thereby resolutely continues the SUV product offensive it began in 2015. This new model will soon be debuting in the markets of three continents with its combination of style, practicality, flexibility, connectivity and economy, and setting new standards for its class as it goes. The urban crossover model reveals itself to be an ideal companion in everyday life and beyond.With the Volkswagen T-Cross, Volkswagen introduces another new SUV model: even shorter and therefore better suited to the city than the T-Roc, and even more compact than the Tiguan.The Volkswagen T-Cross is based on the modular transverse matrix (MQB), which allows the driven front axle to be located well forward. With a total vehicle length of 4.11 metres, the 2.56-metre wheelbase is comparatively generous, allowing a spacious interior with enough room for five people. For the greatest possible versatility in the interior, the sliding rear seat can be adjusted by 14 centimetres, allowing more passenger leg room or more luggage space. The luggage compartment holds between 385 and 455 litres. Thanks to a rear seat back that folds down fully or partially, in the blink of an eye it is possible to create a flat loading space with up to 1.281 litres of storage volume.
Such a camouflage has never existed at Volkswagen on a purchase. So far prototypes were discreetly masked in black and white during the last test and test drives, so that nobody recognizes the details. A so-called "covered drive". The T-Cross will be different. The small SUV is intended to appeal to young customers and win for the brand - and this is already evident in the test drives. "Black Uni", "Energetic Orange" and "Makena Turquoise" are the names of the vehicle colors. The matching colored camouflage make the Covered Drive a Colored Drive. The T-Cross is meant to attract attention “It was very important to us to create a car that stands out in traffic,” says Klaus Bischoff, chief designer of the Volkswagen brand. “When you design an SUV, you have to make it look as if it could conquer any road on the planet. Independent, masculine, powerful. And these are all attributes the T-Cross has.” Outside of Munich, the T-Cross demonstrates its ability to conquer any road, when it reveals itself to a small group of people for the first time. Through gravel pits and the foothills of the Alps, along gravel roads and across fields toward Lake Starnberg. The T-Cross lets off steam, and that’s exactly what the smallest member of Volkswagen’s SUV family is for: small and big adventures in the cities and their outskirts.

Assembled in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the seven-passenger Atlas offers competitive levels of technology and spaciousness combined with hallmark Volkswagen driving dynamics and attention to detail, all at a price designed to draw attention in the crowded family SUV segment. The refreshed 2024 model offers enhanced technology, upgraded interior designs and materials, and a livelier powertrain.Atlas makes a style statement from the front. Outside, model year 2024 brings a new front end design and greater differentiation between Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport. A wide chrome four-bar grille is framed by LED headlights with the newly standard Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS); SEL Premium R-Line models feature a gloss-black grille. Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) wrap around the headlights for a clean design and, on all but base trims, continue into an illuminated lightbar that sits atop of an illuminated VW logo, giving the vehicle an unmistakable premium look. A new front fascia with integrated air intakes completes the front end treatment.Headlight designs feature standard full-LED lighting, including low beams, high beams, and Daytime Running Lights (DRLs); taillights are LEDs as well. For model year 2024, 900-lumen LED headlights with Volkswagen’s Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS) and automatic headlamps and rain-sensing windshield wipers are standard across the lineup.The face of Atlas Peak EditionTM models immediately stands out from other Atlas trims with a rugged front fascia and underbody cladding in silver. A gloss-black “X” design element stretches across the lower fascia, borrowed from Atlas Cross Sport. Two chrome strips pop on an otherwise blacked-out grille, flowing to either side of the illuminated logo.
