Comprehensive Safety and Driver Assistance

Safety is paramount in a family SUV, and the Atlas SEL is equipped with a sophisticated suite of protective technologies. The Front Assist system provides Forward Collision Warning and Autonomous Emergency Braking, while the Active Side Assist acts as an active blind spot monitor to help you change lanes with confidence. For longer journeys, the Travel Assist semi-automated driving assistance and Adaptive Cruise Control w/Stop & Go help reduce driver fatigue by maintaining a set distance from the vehicle ahead.

Parking and maneuvering in tight spaces is simplified with Park Distance Control front and rear parking sensors and a Rear mounted camera. The vehicle also looks out for your well-being with a Driver attention alert and Pedestrian Monitoring. In the event of an incident, the Automatic Post-Collision Braking System helps prevent secondary impacts, while a comprehensive network of 6 airbags, including Side Curtain Protection for all three rows, provides a robust safety net. The Dynamic Road Sign Display even keeps you informed of local speed limits and traffic signs as you drive.

Sophisticated Exterior Design

The exterior of the Atlas SEL is both athletic and elegant, finished in the deep, lustrous Deep Black Pearl paint. It rides on impressive 20-inch 5-Spoke 2-Tone Machined Alloy wheels that provide a planted stance and a premium look. The design is highlighted by Chrome side window trim and a Chrome rear bumper insert, which contrast beautifully against the dark paint.

Illumination is handled by advanced LED low and high beam headlights featuring the Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS), which turns the beams as you steer into corners.
