New Volkswagen Atlas R (render)
Volkswagen's all-new seven-seater SUV, the Atlas,
celebrates Halloween by wearing a meaner-looking costume in a pumpkin-like
shade.
In X-Tomi's vision, the top dog in the Atlas range
features a blacked-out grille with the 'R' badge sitting on it, a larger front
bumper that exchanges the fog lamps for turn signals, beefier side skirts, a
redesigned rear bumper and a new set of wheels.
While the artist has given us an idea of how the new
Volkswagen Atlas could look like in a potential R version, the Tennessee-made
SUV is getting ready to celebrate its world premiere at the 2016 Los Angeles
Auto Show, in mid-November.
Since it's planning on becoming a major player in
the US, the Atlas enjoys an extensive equipment list that counts the digital
cockpit, infotainment system, smartphone connectivity and premium audio system,
along with automatic braking, lane departure warning, blind spot monitor,
forward collision warning and adaptive cruise control systems.
