The new 2020 Atlas Cross Sport represents a new era for Volkswagen. This two-row mid-size crossover is earning much attention for all the right reasons. Its available space, power, style, and standard equipment offerings differentiate the Atlas Cross Sport from the competition — including the Chevy Blazer. Three trims comprise the inaugural lineup for 2020, including the Trendline, Comfortline, and Execline.
When compared side-by-side, the Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport and Chevy Blazer have their differences. The Volkswagen better combines a sporty profile with a nod to the ruggedness that is true to every SUV’s roots. Every Atlas Cross Sport is designed to make a unique and lasting impression. It goes beyond the typical sloped roofline and clean, generic exterior of many of its competitors.
The 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport offers more performance at base levels
The Atlas Cross Sport includes the choice of two engines. The Trendline and Comfortline both receive a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine that generates 235 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. This engine is more powerful than three out of five Chevy Blazer models. The Execline and Comfortline (optional) trims include a 3.6L six-cylinder engine that produces 276 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque.
All-wheel drive is standard on all Atlas Cross Sport models, whereas you have to “buy up” to premium models to receive AWD on a Blazer. It will cost you more with a Blazer to have a feature that is important for Canadian roads.
Interior space makes the 2020 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport a winner
The Atlas Cross Sport is roomier than its Chevy Blazer competitor. It’s important for growing families to have a vehicle that they can grow into. At over 104 mm longer than the Blazer, the Atlas Cross Sport has more space dedicated for cargo and passengers.
Each Atlas Cross Sport is also complete with an abundance of safety technologies, including: Pedestrian Detection; Autonomous Emergency Braking; Blind Spot Monitor; Hill Descent Control; Electronic Stability Control; and much more.
You and your passengers will also be entertained by App-Connect smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto; a six- or 12-speaker Fender audio system; Bluetooth connectivity; USB inputs; a 6.5" or 8.0" touchscreen infotainment system; and more.
