Start Your Journey in the Volkswagen Jetta

Compact cars are very popular here in Lyndhurst. The Volkswagen Jetta, in particular, has a large fan base thanks to its great fuel efficiency and smooth ride. On top of that, the Jetta offers up great tech, safety, and convenience features for your journey. Here at Three County Volkswagen, we wanted to elaborate a bit on some of our favorite Jetta features.

What's New to the Volkswagen Jetta

This vehicle recently underwent a full redesign. Rather than just sit back and take some time off, however, the engineers at Volkswagen continued to improve on this sedan. All models now come standard with a Wi-Fi hot spot. More trims are also now offering a wireless charging pad. These features join a long list of standard and available Jetta tech features, such as the 10-inch digital cockpit and the 8-inch touchscreen navigation.

Technology

The Jetta may be your perfect match if listening to music is a priority while cruising around Clifton. This is the first vehicle to offer you the BeatsAudio sound system in the U.S. With eight strategically placed speakers, this system allows you to listen to music the way that it was always meant to be heard.

Also standard is the incredibly useful VW Car-Net telematics app. This can help save you a lot of stress by helping you find a good parking spot. Always forgetting to lock your car? This app can not only let you know when that happens, but it can also remotely lock your vehicle. Prone to accidentally leaving your sunroof open? The VW app monitors the forecast for rain and will warn you if you have left your roof open.

Technology enhances more than just the convenience and fun of the Jetta. It also helps to make this vehicle safer. There are several advanced driver aids available for this compact sedan. On top of the standard rearview camera, the Jetta offers handy features such as a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert. Other available features include adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, and rain-sensing windshield wipers.

Performance

At the end of the day, a car should be fun to drive around Passaic. Luckily, this is the case with the Volkswagen Jetta thanks to its standard turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine. This produces 147 horsepower, which is perfect for zipping around a vehicle of this size. Those who desire even more acceleration may consider a GLI trim.

This is because they are powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that ups the horsepower to 228. The Jetta is available with both a six-speed manual and an eight-speed automatic transmission, depending on the model you select.

Trims

Speaking of the different models, you actually have five main trim levels to select from. There are also two GLI Jetta models to consider. As for the standard Jetta trim levels, they are known as the S, SE, R-Line, SEL, and SEL Premium. All come well-equipped and ready to serve you well while you travel in and around Newark. Each step up the trim line helps to add even more luxury and sophistication to the vehicle.

The R-Line is a more athletic-looking version of the Jetta. It comes standard with the six-speed manual transmission, giving you more control of your driving experience. This trim also comes standard with an electronic differential lock and fog lights. Inside, you will find a leather-wrapped steering wheel and unique styling touches.

At the top of the trim ladder lives the Premium trim. It takes luxury to an even higher level with features such as navigation, leather upholstery, and front sport seats. It even adds an eight-way power adjustment for the driver's seat so that you can position it just right for your trips. Other features to look out for in this trim include satellite radio, heated rear seats, a larger touchscreen, and the impressive BeatsAudio system.
