Performance and Power
The 2021 Atlas - Packed with power and so much more.
Engine Specs |
Under the hood, a 3.6L V6 engine with 276 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque or a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine with 235 hp (achieved with premium fuel) and 258 lb-ft of torque bring power to every drive. |
Transmission + driving modes |
The 2021 Atlas features an 8-speed automatic transmission that can help improve efficiency[1] and performance. In Tiptronic® mode, you can shift manually for control of your driving experience. |
5,000-lb towing capacity |
When properly equipped with a factory-installed towing hitch, the 3.6L V6 engine can tow up to 5,000 lbs.[10] |
 |
Snow mode |
In Snow Mode, the engine can upshift earlier, which helps keep it in a lower RPM range and helps prevent too much power from going to the wheels too quickly.[11] |
 |
On-road mode |
In good conditions on a paved road, stay in On-Road Mode, and choose from four different settings combining performance and comfort. |
 |
Off-road mode |
Off-Road Mode can help maintain traction on challenging road surfaces. On steep grades, it can activate Hill Descent Control to help keep a safe speed as you descend.[12] |
 |
Off-road custom mode |
Within Off-Road Mode custom settings, the driver can set various parameters like steering and all-wheel-drive options to their own preferences.
|
Safety.
A lot goes into the new 2021 Atlas before you do.
Safety Cage |
Front and rear crumple zones help absorb crash energy, while a rigid safety cage helps deflect it away from the driver and passengers. |
Intelligent Crash Response System[13] |
In the event of a collision that deploys the airbags[14], the ICRS can turn off the fuel pump, unlock the doors, and activate the hazard lights [13]. It helps react if you might not be able to. |
Rear View Camera System |
Benefit from the view of a wide lens when you want it. It can help you see obstacles when backing up, a feature so helpful you'll wonder how you ever managed without it.
|
 |
Automatic Post-Collision Braking System |
Not every collision brings a car to a stop. That's why our vehicles include the Automatic Post-Collision Braking System. It can also help slow the vehicle down after a collision, helping reduce the chance of additional impacts.[15] |
|
 |
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) |
Monitoring and maintaining proper air pressure in your tires helps with efficiency and safety. The TPMS helps alert you to a loss of tire pressure so you know when to add air.
|
|
 |
Six stability-enhancing systems |
From Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD), which helps maintain appropriate stopping power during a hard-braking situation, to Electronic Stability Control (ESC), which can adjust engine throttle and apply corrective forces to the wheels that need them most, your vehicle is equipped with a total of six stability-enhancing systems.
