Volkswagen’s Jetta is renowned for its reliability and great value. The venerable sedan is also incredibly fuel efficient and loaded with amenities. Here’s a quick and handy guide to the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta!
Power and Performance
With its healthy output of 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, the turbocharged 1.5L 4-cylinder engine that serves as the Jetta’s standard powerplant promises plenty of get-up-and-go. Its start/stop technology combines with an 8-speed automatic transmission to help deliver an exceptional fuel economy of up to 39 MPG highway. The transmission intelligently changes gears to enhance drivability and response.
A MacPherson strut front suspension and torsion beam rear axle result in the Jetta displaying impressive agility in the corners and minimal body roll. Telescopic dampers at all four corners of the vehicle keep the ride nice and smooth.
Exterior Features
The Jetta may be very affordably priced, but it certainly looks like a premium ride thanks to its graceful body lines and handsomely styled front and rear fascias. Contributing to its appeal are standard LEDs for the headlights and taillights and 16-inch machined alloy wheels. Along with heated power side mirrors and rain-sensing front wipers, other trims offer an integrated light bar for the front grille and larger 17- or 18-inch wheels.
Passenger Cabin
Just like the exterior, the Jetta’s cabin sports a sophisticated design, plus it boasts perfect fitment of interior components and high-quality materials throughout. The base S model is sure to delight drivers with its leather-wrapped steering wheel, digital instrument display, and Climatronic Touch dual-zone climate control system.
The car becomes especially inviting when you opt for creature comforts like heated and power-adjustable front seats and perforated CloudTex leatherette upholstery. Coming standard with genuine leather-wrapped seats, ambient lighting, and ventilation for the front seats, top-spec SEL models approach luxury territory.
Technology
A driver-oriented 8-inch infotainment touchscreen is found atop the Jetta’s dashboard, providing access to smartphone integration and Bluetooth audio streaming. Two USB-C ports for the front row are standard, but buyers may add a rear USB-C port and wireless charging station for more convenience. Exclusive to the SEL trim is support for connected navigation and a highly customizable 10.25-inch VW Digital Cockpit Pro instrument panel.
Driver assistance technologies are plentiful and include automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alerts, and adaptive cruise control. The available remote engine start system allows you to start the car and climate control system while you’re inside the house, so you can feel free to get moving as soon as you get behind the wheel.
