With an MSRP of $21,360, the Jetta features everything a driver could want from a compact sedan—it’s roomy, powerful, peppy, quiet, and smooth. Under the hood, you’ll find a 158-hp 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that, when paired with a manual transmission, can definitely let you have some fun. If you’re looking for a spicier driving experience, the Jetta GLI might be a better pick.
Inside you’ll find a list of infotainment and active safety features. If you’re looking for upgraded features, you’ll have to look at the higher-end models. The Sport model has plenty of unique design elements and a price tag that won’t make you choke.
