Your family deserves a stylish, technologically-advanced and safe SUV to ride around in. But the vehicle you choose also needs to be reliable and spacious so everyone can be comfortable. The 2022 Volkswagen Atlas is backed by a segment-leading warranty, and it provides plenty of space, tech and safety features to keep your passengers comfortable and entertained on any trip.
Here, we compare the 2022 Volkswagen Atlas with the 2022 Ford Explorer.
The Volkswagen Atlas is roomier
The 2022 Volkswagen Atlas uses better materials and superior craftsmanship in its cabin, but it also focusses on space like no other. Not only do the passengers benefit from more headroom and legroom in all rows, they also get more cargo volume to bring the gear along for the ride.
When it is full of passengers, the Atlas delivers 583 litres of space, which is plenty of room for groceries, hockey equipment and everything else. Fold the seating and unleash no less than 2,741 litres of space to fit furniture, boxes and materials.
The Ford Explorer is much less accommodating. With only 515 litres of space when it is full of passengers and 2,486 litres when the passenger rows are folded, you won’t get the same versatility.
The 2022 Volkswagen Atlas is more reliable than the Ford Explorer
You may have heard it from a friend, a neighbour or in the press, but it is worth mentioning that this generation of the Ford Explorer is plagued with problems. Multiple complaints and recalls have been filed, but the Explorer has also underperformed in terms of efficiency and reliability.
The Volkswagen Atlas’ reliability has been proven thanks top better engineering, solid powertrains and technology that will keep you and your family safe on the road at all times.
The Volkswagen Atlas is more reliable than its rivals. But the manufacturer still backs it up with a great warranty of 4 years/80 000 km. Ford, on the other hand, gives its Explorer a more limited 3 years/60 000 km warranty. Needless to say, peace of mind only comes with the Atlas.
The 2022 Volkswagen Atlas has much more to offer and is a better family vehicle than the Ford Explorer. Come see it today. You can also shop for your car online with us, our representatives await your call and can answer all your questions.
