VOLKSWAGEN HITS MILESTONE: PRODUCTION of 100,000 ATLAS SUVs
If you’ve shopped for an SUV, you know there are a sea of choices. One that is standing out from the rest and quickly rolling off production lines is the Volkswagen Atlas. The Volkswagen Chattanooga recently announced a production milestone with the completion of its 100,000th Volkswagen Atlas.
Assembled in the LEED Platinum-certified production facility in Chattanooga Tennessee, the 100,000th SUV was a 2019 Atlas SEL premium. It was finished in Pacific Blue with Shetland V-Tex leatherette interior. The milestone Atlas features a 3.6-liter direct-injection VR6 engine, 8-speed automatic transmission.
“Our objective for the Atlas has been to assemble an SUV in America for Americans and we have been very encouraged by the success of the vehicle so far,” said Antonio Pinto, CEO of Volkswagen Chattanooga. “This is just the first of many production milestones we anticipate celebrating for the Atlas, and it would not have been possible without the world-class team here in Chattanooga.”
Rolling Into the New Year
The 2019 Atlas will be available in seven trims levels — S, SE, SE w/ Technology, SE w/ Technology R-Line®, SEL, SEL R-Line, and SEL Premium. In addition, the Atlas family receives a modest value alignment, with driver-assistance and innovation features moving to lower trims. Front Assist, Blind Spot Monitor, and Rear Traffic Alert are now standard on all models. Volkswagen Digital Cockpit—the high-tech configurable instrument cluster—is now standard on SEL models.
The 2019 Volkswagen Atlas 2.0-liter starts at $30,895 for the S model; 3.6-liter models start at $34,095 for the S 4Motion. The destination charge for all Atlas models is an additional $995.
