This is a pretty good facelift. Also nice to see VW keeping this model up to date since it's launching less than 24 months after the Atlas first went on sale. Making AWD available with the 2.0T is also a smart move. They'll continue selling a lot of these.

I just love the simplicity of the instrument panel, touchscreen yes but at least no ipad.

Looks good. That is a lot of vehicle to move with the 2.0T, and more importantly frontal area at speed.  I see a fully loaded Atlas with roof top ski box and that 4 cylinder just being thrashed on lol.

Did I read they lengthened it?

It's a touch longer overall, but this is purely related to the design of the front fascia. Wheelbase remains untouched as it's a facelift of the existing platform.
