2019 Volkswagen Atlas vs. 2019 Honda Pilot

If you’ve been shopping for a full-size SUV near St Peters, you already know that the segment includes plenty of competitive models. However, the 2019 Volkswagen Atlas and the 2019 Honda Pilot stand head and shoulders above the rest! Don’t just take our word for it: Compare the Volkswagen Atlas vs. Honda Pilot in-depth with our team. Once you’ve taken an Atlas out on the roads near Kirkwood, you’ll see why so many families love what it can do.

Volkswagen Atlas vs. Honda Pilot: Pricing and Trims

The 2019 VW Atlas starts out with a lower price than the 2019 Honda Pilot:

  • 2019 VW Atlas S – $30,895 MSRP*
  • 2019 Honda Pilot LX – $31,450 MSRP

Volkswagen Atlas vs. Honda Pilot: Performance and Utility

If you drive a full-size SUV, you need an engine that can move your whole family, and then some. Although both of these models have similar capacities, the Atlas does more with less:

  • The Atlas comes standard with a 235-hp 2.0-liter inline-4 engine. The Atlas, on the other hand, offers 280 hp with a standard 3.5-liter V6.
  • More power might seem attractive, but the Atlas is much better for families. On the city streets of St Louis or Webster, you’ll get an EPA-estimated 22 mpg with the base Atlas. The Pilot base trim only gets 19 mpg in the city.
  • What can you do with the VW Atlas towing capacity? Quite a lot, since you’ll be able to tow 5,000 without any major engine or drivetrain upgrades! The Pilot needs an AWD upgrade to tow the same amount.

VW Atlas vs. Honda Pilot: Interior Features and Cargo Space

There are definitely certain similarities between the 2019 Volkswagen Atlas interior and the cabin of the Honda Pilot. After all, what’s a full-size SUV without a rearview camera, USB ports, and a multi-function steering wheel? However, only the Atlas offers the following:

  • Roof rack
  • Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto®
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control
  • Up to 3 front power outlets

You’ll also be able to receive the optional 12.3-inch Volkswagen Digital Cockpit. In addition to providing a personalized display, the cockpit lets you enjoy a wide-angle navigation view for easy local searches.

What’s more, the Atlas is one of the few SUVs that can challenge the Pilot on cargo space. The latter offers just 16.5 feet with all seats in their upright positions, while the Pilot provides 20.6 cubic feet under the same conditions. Fold down both rows of rear seating, and you’ll access 96.8 cubic feet in the Atlas. The Pilot cargo space dimensions max out at just 83.9 cubic feet.
