I have been driving the Volkswagen New Jetta and I must say that I am very much content with this car.
It's been quite a few months since I have been driving the Volkswagen New Jetta and I must say that I am very much content with this car. The company has launched four variants of New Jetta namely Volkswagen Jetta Comfortline, Volkswagen Jetta Trendline and Volkswagen Jetta Highline with options between manual and automatic DSG gearbox.
It's quite an appealing car with a sporty exterior which easily attracts any passer-by. As far as the engine of the car is concerned, it boasts a 2.0L diesel engine all packed with 6 speed manual gearbox while its Highline variant is powered with 6 speed automatic DSG gearbox. New Jetta's diesel variants are very fuel efficient and offer a smooth drive. This powerful diesel engine generates a maximum power output of 139 hp at 4200 rpm and a peak torque of 320 Nm at 1750-2000 rpm. With such an engine configuration, it can cover 100 kmph in just 12 seconds and attain top speed of 210 kmph.
I was actually impressed with the wheels of New Jetta as it is accumulated with 6.5J X 16 inch alloy wheels. It makes the exterior of the car very classy and strong. The size of the tyre is 205/55 R16. These big sizes of the tyres are very supportive, which reduce the rate of slipping while driving on slippery or wet surface.
Besides all these features, the car is equipped with all the modern entertainment equipment such as RCD 310 touch screen music system comprising USB-in with CDs, MP3 and WMA files.
