Volkswagen AtlasIn what may be the most highly anticipated arrival of a new Volkswagen model in recent history, the Atlas is finally here. We feel that is cause for celebration. That is why this Friday, from 2pm until 6pm we will be hosting a launch party for the Atlas at Southpoint Volkswagen. Since the Atlas was first unveiled in October of 2016, we have been eagerly awaiting the opportunity to offer Volkswagen’s largest SUV to our customers. Now, we can proudly invite everyone to our dealership to get a firsthand look at it as we will be celebrating the arrival of the new Volkswagen Atlas in Baton Rouge.

The launch party will be held at our dealership, 13940 Airline Hwy in Baton Rouge. We will have food and drinks for our guests, and will be offering giveaways throughout the party of Volkswagen t-shirts, hats, and other memorabilia.

Of course, there will be ample opportunity to see our newest, largest SUV up close. Guests can get a feel for the class-competitive levels of technology and spaciousness combined with hallmark Volkswagen driving dynamics and attention to detail, all at a price designed to draw customers’ attention in the family SUV segment.

The biggest draw of the Atlas is the size. Your family has grown with Volkswagen over the years, now the Volkswagen family is growing with yours. It features a third row of seats that allows it to comfortably fit up to seven adults. If you’re wondering how big the Atlas is; it measures in at 198.3 inches long, 77.9 inches wide, and 69.6 inches high. But, while larger in size, it still retains classic proportions and clean lines that create a sense of timelessness and precision.

Along with the larger size, Volkswagen is offering America’s best warranty as well. The 2018 Atlas offers a six-year/72,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty which includes powertrain coverage for their engines, transmissions, and optional 4Motion® all-wheel-drive system coverage. The warranty for most of the Atlas’ competitors is three-year/36,000-mile. Also, all its elements can be transferred to subsequent owners up to 6 years or 72,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

The 2018 Atlas isn’t just bigger, it is American made as well. The Atlas is constructed at our Chattanooga, Tennessee Assembly Plant alongside the Volkswagen Passat.

The launch party for the new Volkswagen Atlas coincides with the 25th anniversary of Southpoint Volkswagen, whose doors first opened in Baton Rouge June 1, 1992. You are invited to this celebration, and we hope you will take this opportunity to get acquainted with everything the Atlas has to offer. If you have any questions about the launch party, or about the Atlas, please contact a member of our team at Southpoint Volkswagen, and we will be happy to answer them for you.

We hope to see you Friday.test drive an atlas
