The Atlas Cross Sport was originally launched for 2020. Changes are in store this year including revised front and rear fascias, improved material selection and a new dashboard design. Gone is the V6 engine. All Atlas models are motivated by a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, which now produces 269 horsepower instead of 235 horsepower. The engine's maximum towing capacity is increased from 2,000 lbs to 5,000 lbs. The Atlas accommodates six or seven, while the Atlas Cross Sport has five seats only.
