My sixth Jetta and I still like it

I have the Jetta sel and enjoy it. I do wish car salesman told me there was a premium cuz would have opted for that. I think the car is great like the others I have owned for the price. I do like cars but I refuse to spend a ridiculous amt of money for one and feel I get my money worth with the Jetta. I’ll probably buy my seventh one someday😊

Quality and Economy

I’ve had this car for about 8 months and driven around 33k miles. It’s very nice to drive and has decent power, considering it’s only a 1.4 liter, which regularly gets me more than 40 mpg. The interior has a premium feel for a less premium price than its Audi counterpart. Overall, a very nice car for the price that will save you thousands at the pump and provide you with all the tech you need to make driving a fantastic experience.

First car I've bought new, best car I've owned!

I love my 2019 habanero orange manual Jetta S I bought brand new for close to 17k cash a little over a year ago! 22k miles in a year because I have a long commute to and from work and its been fantastic. Always been reliable (I always have it serviced perfectly on time) plus I just love the comfortable ride and how this car looks. Plan to keep it and give it to my son one day when he's 16, he's almost 2 now. I used to be a BMW man but now I think one day when I upgrade I'll stick with VW or go Audi (stick w/ VW lol.)

The car is reliable

The car met my needs. It's gas economic, it has all the accessories I needed. Plenty of room on the front and back. The stereo system excellent.

Awsome Car

I purchased my first VW Jetta last year Brand New. After having it for a little over a year. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE it. My husband who is a taller guy with long legs, ( usually prefers big trucks) says it is the most comfortable car that i have owned. He has room driving it as well as being a passenger . You can not beat gas mileage! I will definitely be a loyal VW owner when the time comes for another vehicle.

Above Average Middle Class Sedan

This car is excellent for an inexpensive midsize sedan. The front and back seats have plenty of legroom for adults and children. The gears shift very smoothly and it has great gas mileage using economy getting an average mpg of 34. The front seat does need a redesign to include a adjustable back support, as well as, allowing to seat to be adjusted a lower seating position than it is already capable of. One downside to the vehicle is that it drives poorly in snow, however it is superior to most front wheel drive vehicles with the Advanced Traction Control. Another issue that the vehicle has is that there are two models that were produced in the 2019 model year, one production model that was in 2018 and it is slightly different in features than the one that is actually produced in 2019.
