The 2025 Atlas Cross Sport delivers winter confidence through intelligent engineering. A 269-horsepower turbocharged engine pairs with 4MOTION All-Wheel Drive on every trim, giving you precise control in snow, slush, and ice. This powertrain setup provides 2,268 kg of towing capacity while maintaining sure-footed stability across challenging road conditions. The advanced drivetrain responds instantly to traction changes, adjusting power delivery before wheel slip occurs.
Power Distribution for Winter Roads
4MOTION technology continuously monitors each wheel's grip level, sending exact power amounts where needed. Starting from a stop on icy inclines becomes effortless as the system detects and prevents wheel spin. Through snowy corners, power shifts between wheels to maintain your intended path. During highway passing maneuvers, the system stabilizes the Atlas Cross Sport even on slippery surfaces. The Driving Profile Selection enhances this capability with Snow Mode, which adjusts throttle response and transmission shift patterns for optimal winter performance. Hill Hold Assist activates automatically on inclines, preventing backward rolling while you transition from brake to accelerator. The 8-speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic gives you additional control when conditions demand it, allowing manual gear selection for steep descents or low-traction situations.
Winter Comfort Across Every Trim
