2021 Volkswagen Atlas – 3-row Midsize
By EPA class definition the 2021Atlas is a midsize crossover SUV. But it’s arguably a full-size crossover SUV. Because it offers more cargo space than some definitively full-size SUVs.

Left: Atlas Cross Sport | Right: Atlas
The 2021 Atlas Cross Sport ushers in its second model year. And the Atlas Cross Sport shares the same wheelbase of 117.3-inches as its bigger sibling Atlas. However, the Atlas Cross Sport is shorter overall at 195.5″ to the Atlas’s 200.7″. Both of the 2021 VW SUV models are great-looking. But the Atlas Cross Sport poses slightly more athletic with its raked rear roof.

The Tiguan is Volkswagen’s 2021 compact SUV model. And like both its larger siblings, it’s big and comfortable inside. It’s worth noting that the optional 3rd-row of seating is sized for children. Or adults that are pretty small. Tiguan is a fun crossover SUV to drive. Because its turbocharged 4-cylinder balances nicely with the vehicle’s less than 3,900 curb weight.
