| 154.0 cu ft | Passenger Volume | 123.9 cu ft |
Both cars allow you to fold the rear seats down, allowing you to maximize the cargo space. The VW 2021 Tiguan has 40/20/40 split folding seats in the 2nd row. The VW 2021 Atlas has 60/40 split folding in the 2nd row and 50/50 split folding in the 3rd row. Overall, if you need a car with more space, the VW 2021 Atlas may be the better car for you!
Comfort Options
Both cars have the option to have V-tex leatherette seating, which gives the look of leather, but is more comfortable and easier to maintain. They also both offer the option of having Climatronic® automatic climate control. However, the VW Atlas has a 3-zone climate control (for the driver, passenger, 2nd row, and 3rd row), whereas the VW Tiguan only has dual-zone climate control. The VW Atlas also makes getting into the third row simple with an easy pull and push motion, and gives the driver a multi functioning steering wheel.
