If you are looking for an agile sedan that can seat three passengers comfortably in the rear seat, the Volkswagen Jetta is well worth considering. The base powertrain consists of 1.4L, 150 HP in-line four-cylinder engine coupled to a five-speed manual transmission. A worthwhile step up is to order your Jetta in Plainfield with a six-speed automatic transmission and a 170 HP, 1.8L engine. If speed and “racier” looks are for you, order the GLI. It has a 210 HP turbo, 2.0L engine.
The New Jetta, New From The Ground Up
The front end of the new Jetta is decidedly like the front end of the Audi A5, a corporate cousin. The wheelbase has been lengthened by 1.3 inches, which complements the sleeker roofline nicely.
The Jetta has always been a good car; it is now an excellent car. It rides very nice, has composed handling characteristics, a great range of energetic engines, and it has above-average fuel economy for its position in the market. For those who are looking for a comfortable interior, a decent sized trunk, and a “user-friendly” infotainment system, the Jetta is hard to beat.
Behind The Wheel
There are a number of new fabric colors available in the new model Jetta; the stitching is sportier and more aggressive than in the past. A popular option is customized ten color interior lighting. With winters being what they are in Plainfield, you will want to consider heated seats.
If there are more drivers in your family than just you, the Jetta has a driver personalization function. You, your spouse, and two kids can store their preferences; seat position, radio presets, ambient color, etc.
As well as it looks inside and out, Volkswagen also has paid particular attention to safety; the new Jetta has a forward collision warning system, blind-spot monitor, automatic high-beams, keep lane assist and more.
