When it comes to having the ability to take your entire family with you on your adventures, third-row crossovers are a crucial ingredient. Not only do they allow you and your family to go places that other third-row vehicles like minivans just can’t, but they let you do so while bringing along massive loads of cargo inside or hitched up to the back. The Kia Sorento has become a totem model in this class – giving drivers an uncommon value.
Up against the 2019 Kia Sorento today is the Volkswagen Atlas – a brand-new model from VW. The Atlas is a third-row crossover that is committed to letting drivers and passengers alike experience comfort and reliability in a confident vehicle that can go almost anywhere. Coming out of the gate into a new class is hard, though. How does the Atlas measure up to the established Sorento? Let’s find out!
