And, just recently in September, I surprised my wife by replacing our Touareg with a 2018 Atlas. Volkswagen has always been softer rubber materials on the dash, the doors, the buttons of the windows, the way they feel, the material. It makes all the difference. These are the little things that VW looks at, but it brings out the quality. When you drive a Volkswagen, and you drive a different brand vehicle, you definitely immediately feel the difference. "I've had three Touaregs, two Jettas, one Passat, two CCs. And, just recently in September, I surprised my wife by replacing our Touareg with a 2018 Atlas."
