For your 2024 VW Atlas I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76176. This is a Class IV hitch with a 2" receiver and a bolt-on installation. It has a max gross trailer weight of 6,000 lbs, tongue weight of 900 lbs, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
In addition to the hitch you will also need wiring. The Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK89FR is the most reliable option available. This plugs into the connection points in your rear cargo area. Once... view full answer...

Be sure to not exceed the maximum tow rating given by Volkswagen for your Atlas.

Yes, if you want to use a union tee like the # F3025-1 you can easily inflate both bags of the Firestone kit part # F4175 equally with the same inflation valve. Unless for some reason you need ability to have one bag with more pressure than other this is the way to go for sure. view full answer...
The Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7 will allow you to convert your 4-way flat wiring harness on your 2021 Volkswagen Atlas to use with trailers that have a 7-way connector. The connector will also retain a 4-way connector so you do not have to disconnect the wiring to use with a 4-way trailer or have to carry an adapter. Included in the installation kit is the additional wiring needed to run the wiring for the charge line portion of the 7-way along with wiring needed to install a brake... view full answer...
Assuming you have a hitch like the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13366 I really like the Inno Vertical Hang 4 Bike Rack part # INH540. This keeps the bikes nice and high while also working for all types of bike without the need for adapter bars.
Check out the video on it that I've linked for you. view full answer...
For you 2019 Volkswagen Atlas I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack with 58" Long crossbars # MPG216. The 58" bars give you plenty of space to mount accessories like bike racks, roof baskets, or kayak carriers.
It's compatible with your Atlas, even with the large sunroof, however I can't confirm if the sunroof will open with the rack installed. However, they are extremely easy to remove and install. They simply clamp on to your existing rails on your Atlas, and the tightening tool... view full answer...

I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo roof rack for your 2023 Volkswagen Atlas. You will need the Crossbars # TH711420 along with the Feet # TH710401 to attach this on your factory raised roof rails. These crossbars have a 2 piece channel seal allowing you to easily slide accessories like a bike rack in the channels.
For a bike rack I recommend the Thule ProRide XT Roof Bike Rack # TH598004. This rack is capable of carrying a bike up to 44lbs with 3" wide tires. It secures the bike by clamping... view full answer...
We do indeed offer a hitch for the 2020 VW Atlas Cross Sport. I'd recommend the Curt Class III hitch, part
# C93CR. For a trailer wiring harness, use the # C56383. For a ball mount, I'd recommend the # C45030 and the # PC3 hitch pin. For a hitch ball, use # 19260 for a 1-7/8 or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball. view full answer...
It sounds like you are looking for a trailer hitch and trailer hitch mounted bike rack for a 2019 Volkswagen Atlas.

In regards to upgrading from lead acid to lithium batteries on a trailer like the Go Power Lithium RV Battery part # 34282740, you usually need to swap out the charge converter assuming the model you have not is not rated for lithium batteries. The Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger part # PD9160ALV will replace a WF-9855 and is lithium compatible. view full answer...
Absolutely!
Starting with the trailer hitch, I recommend the Curt Class III Receiver Hitch # C13366. This Class III hitch is confirmed to fit your 2018 VW Atlas and will use existing holes in its frame for a no-drill installation. It will provide you with a 2 inch receiver and it has a 6,000 towing weight capacity. You will also want to verify your vehicle's capacity by checking the owner's manual, as it is likely lower than this. You will simply need to follow whichever capacity is lower,... view full answer...

I have a similar trunk mounted bike rack that does fit your 2019 Volkswagen Atlas with the Saris Bones # SA805BL but the Thule you mentioned does not fit. The Saris is very lightweight and easy to use so it's a really great option.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached... view full answer...
I would be happy to help!
For your 2021 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT96MR which is a confirmed fit for your vehicle, and its 750lb tongue weight will be perfect for carrying a bike rack.
If you do not already have a bike rack then I recommend taking a look at the Thule Hitching Post Pro 4-Bike Rack # TH934XTR which can accommodate up to 4 bikes weighing up to 35lbs each. The hold fast anti-sway cradles keep the bikes from... view full answer...
It would be a great idea to use an anti-sway system with your 2018 Volkswagen Atlas and small single axle travel trailer. The smaller single axle trailers are actually more prone to sway than the larger tandem and triple axle trailers due to the lack of tongue weight.
There are two styles of anti-sway control, friction and electric. The owner's manual for your Atlas restricts the use of most friction sway control devices so your best option will be an electric anti-sway device. I recommend... view full answer...
In order to add a 7-way to your 2022 Volkswagen Atlas for your lights and brakes you will need to start by adding a 4-way. For that I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118754. This will plug into your existing wiring using the T-One connectors so no cutting or splicing is required. Once installed, you will have a 4-way connection that can power your trailer's signal lights and will be able to add the 7-way.
For the 7-way you need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite Class III reciever hitch you'd looked at # 76176 and the Curt Class III, part # C13366 are pretty much identical. The design is very similar, they have the same capacity, they install in the same manner and are similarly priced. The Curt hitch is assembled in the USA, while the Draw-Tite is manufactured in Mexico, which is the only reason I might choose the one over the other.
If you'll be using the hitch for towing, you'll need a trailer wiring harness like # C56383 and... view full answer...
The 2020 Volkswagen Atlas has a low hitch receiver height therefore you'll likely need a ball mount with built-in rise to tow most trailers level. In order to find the correct one simply measure from the ground to the bottom of the coupler on the trailer while level and then subtract the distance from the ground to the top inside edge of the trailer hitch on the vehicle. You're likely looking around 3" and in which case I recommend the Curt Solid Ball Mount for 2" Hitches part # C45313... view full answer...
The best solution we'd have would be the adapter part # D210 which is a ball mount that has a hitch opening above the ball mount platform so that you can install a bike rack into it.
The # RM-077-8 cannot be used when towing a trailer as it was only tested for use when flat towing a vehicle.
I attached a review video for the # D210 for you to check out as well. view full answer...
