The Volkswagen Atlas will come standard as a front wheel drive vehicle but there are upgrade options available. If You have a model with a 2.0L engine You will be stuck with front wheel drive as no upgrades are possible on those. The 3.6L models will come standard with front wheel drive but they will also have the option to upgrade to all wheel drive. This upgrade will cost $2000. The top of the line model is the 3.6L V6 SEL Premium and it will come standard with all wheel drive. No models will have four wheel drive.
