Is both ugly online and in person. There’s one in the parking lot and wow, that front end is rough!

I beg to differ

I’d rather the VAG sister anyway, the Skoda Kodiaq.

This applies to almost every VAG product, I’d rather have the Skoda.

Agreed - it’s a pig.

I have spoken.

It looks so depressed.

It’s probably for the best we don’t get the Atlas over here. If I had one I’d leave the house each day saying,’ there’s my Chatanooga choo choo’.

Every single VW looked better in the previous gen than the current one, I don’t know if they changed the designer but all of their designs have gotten worse in the last couple of years. Even the new Polo looks depressed!

You know those awful photoshop creations that people put on ads. Yeah. The Atlas is just generic enough to be one. But it’s catering to a trend so....

For sure. It’s much nicer inside though

interesting - didn’t know Skoda was getting a version. Skoda stuff always seems a little better looking to me...

Yeah that looks even worse.

She came out late on last year.

She’s even got a little sister (to replace the Yeti), the Skoda Karoq.

There are soo many better options though.

Atlas is ugly in pictures, but actually pretty nice when you see it in person.

And the VR6 is slow as hell, even with an 8 spd auto (according to C&D). It’s the complete opposite of what I expected from VW. Maybe it’ll actually sell.

Thought I’d have a look at Audis, VWs, SEATs and Skodas range of SUVs.

It’ll probably sell like damn hot cakes, hopefully enough so that we can get the R wagon over here in the U.S.

It’s weird because the Touareg is so beautiful in comparison. The Atlas is ugly in the same way as the GMC Terrain, except it’s somehow more offensive knowing that VAG can turn out good looking fullsize SUVs when they want to (see Audi, Porsche, etc.).

Very much agreed! They always seem to give the US the finger on modeling. The new cheap Passat and Jetta for the US... ugh when they are capable of the CC!!!
