How Can a 2018 Volkswagen Atlas be Towed Behind a Motorhome
Question:
Can you tell me whether the 2018 VW Atlas can be flat towed behind a Class A motorhome?

Helpful Expert Reply:
I did some checking and it looks like the front wheel drive versions of your 2018 Volkswagen Atlas can be towed behind a motorhome with a tow dolly like the Demco # DM9713045 but none of the versions can be towed with all 4 wheels on the ground. The all wheel drive versions can be towed only on a trailer.
Towing with a tow dolly has a few advantages over tow bar towing in that the install is much easier, the price is often less overall, and if you ever want to tow a different vehicle you don't have to buy more parts and install anything else as the dolly will be ready to go.
