Rowing with the gears of the 2015 Volkswagen Jetta S TDI’s six-speed manual transmission as we roll along the scenic two-laners of Virginia’s horse country, we marvel on the reality that we’re actually having fun. Yeah, fun. In a Jetta.
Never would we've got predicted this back when Volkswagen first released the latest Jetta for the 2011 type year. Though it boasted improved space, son-of-Audi styling, and a more reasonable price, the Jetta was soundly criticized to its utter dearth of character, relentlessly cheap-feeling cabin, gruff five-cylinder basic engine, and chassis which had regressed in the Dark Ages with back drum brakes and a torsion-beam back suspension.
After that, VW has produced incremental and significant enhancements to the North American bread-butterer, and by 2014, all U.S.-market Jettas featured four-wheel disc brakes and an independent rear suspension. Furthermore 2014, another EA888 1.8-liter turbocharged base four-cylinder engine forced the cantankerous 2.5-liter five-cylinder into retirement. Enter the 2015 Jetta, having its midcycle update which brings new front and rear styling, upgraded interior components (including-at last-a soft-touch dash top), and a new EA288 diesel engine in TDI models. Alas, it would appear that the Jetta has now become the vehicle Volkswagen ought to have been building forever.
Typically, the most critical elements of the vehicle’s midcycle refresh are modified lighting and fascia factors, however in the 2015 Jetta’s case, they're arguably the least fascinating of its upgrades. A fresh grille focuses on the car’s size, along with the latest rear bumper, as new headlamps offer more widely obtainable LED daytime running lamps along with the taillamps evoke its Audi-brand cousins. And for the first-time, maybe the least expensive Jetta drives on aluminum wheels. How much the revisions enhance the Jetta’s appears is up to the viewer, however arguably it is now actually harder to see the gap between the Jetta and also the one-size-up Passat.
The interior, when among the Jetta’s worst attributes, has become a convincingly nice area to spend time for 2015. It’s still Teutonically austere along with the door panels are hard plastic, but the dashboard seems much classier, dressed which is with tunneled indicators and reflective piano-black trim panels. High-end material including navigation has trickled below higher trims to low- and mid-grade levels, and interestingly, an available touch-screen infotainment system without navigation is really larger than that of the navigation-equipped cars. And the seats in the S, SE, and SEL types we drove were firm and supportive.
