The Atlas is difficult to find in my area, and most are the Launch Edition. There are no SEL Premiums, and only a couple of SELs. I think it is exceeding the expectations. The new Tiguan is supposed to be available by the end of July. I'm waiting to see and drive that, as I have no need for the space in the Atlas. Plus, the 4 cylinder Atlas isn't available yet.

So with the new and larger Tiguan, the uber Atlas, and the aging Touareg, I wonder if the Touareg will be sqeueezed out...

Also interesting to see the e-Golf sales increases, most likely a result of getting rid of the TDIs, too bad they're not in all 50 states yet.

That people still be buying the same old Jettas and Passats proves that cars aren't a relevant buying decision in many households.

Especially since the Jetta and Passat are both worst-in-class designs in their respective segments.

You guys must have never driven anything recently in the compact and midsize sedan class... The Jetta and Passat drive better, are more comfortable and have some of the best electronics(Fender audio, app connect, etc) as compared to the competition... Ever drive a corolla,camry,accord,sentra or altima to name a few? Those cars drive like crap beside feeling like a cheap peice of plastic
