The 2024 Atlas Cross Sport is an improved Volkswagen SUV for buyers who don't need a third row.
Volkswagen's efforts to grow its appeal in North America have developed over a long process of trial and error, but VW showed it finally understood this continent’s tastes when it launched the Atlas three-row crossover SUV. And because not everyone needs three rows, VW followed up the standard Atlas with the two-row Cross Sport for the 2020 model year. Both versions get a significant refresh for 2024.
The 2024 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport gets most of the same updates as its three-row sibling, including different styling, more standard features, and the discontinuation of its six-cylinder engine option in favour of a more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engine. These changes are aimed at making the Cross Sport more competitive against other midsize crossovers like the Chevrolet Blazer and Honda Passport, the aged Ford Edge and Nissan Murano, and the more truck-like Jeep Grand Cherokee.
In Canada, the 2024 Atlas Cross Sport lineup includes Comfortline, Highline, and Execline trim levels. We drove the U.S. equivalent of the range-topping Execline for this review.

I love my cross sport so far! I love the look of it, not too big but spacious enough & the technology rocks. I got the SE w/ technology and it was definitely the most bang for your buck. Highly recommend!
I love this car! It’s perfect for a family and its sporty look is a plus. It drives beautifully, and its technology is great. Would recommend too anyone looking to buy a suv
Overall this seems to be a good vehicle. We now have about 1500 miles on there. The lack of physical buttons is natural to me since we also own a Tesla Model Y. The UI is not good comparing it to a Tesla. While on a trip today the infotainment system rebooted 3 times within 8 hours. This was while running Android Auto. There are many things that about me with the technology comparison such as the infotainment system, there lack of functionality in the app, noisy and rough on the road, 5 watt wireless charger that overheats, piano black interior trim, etc. What I really like though is that it seems to be a good looking SUV that handles pretty well with enough power to get the job done. The sound system is adequate and much better than other vehicles we tested in the same class. There is ample room for a family of four with a 64” adult and 6 kid having plenty of leg room. Comes with a spare tire. Getting about 22 MPG average so far. Trailer receiver factory installed. After getting familiar with it my wife really likes the 360 birds eye camera.
I havent purchased the vehicle yet as I havent been able to find the right color combo. Compared to my Audi that I am driving it is a great bang for the buck. Just wish it a larger engine and a rear camera washer.
Great features leather seats and spacious. A little pricey compared to others between sporty and luxury..
