Rowing with the gears of the 2015 Volkswagen Jetta S TDI’s six-speed manual transmission since we roll along the scenic two-laners of Virginia’s horse country, we marvel in the fact that we’re actually wonderful time. Yeah, fun. On a Jetta.
Never would we've predicted this back when Volkswagen first released the current Jetta for that 2011 type year. Though it boasted increased 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 base engine, and chassis that had regressed in the Dark Ages with rear drum brakes and a torsion-beam back suspension.
After that, VW has created incremental and significant enhancements to the North American bread-butterer, and with 2014, all U.S.-market Jettas featured four-wheel disc brakes with an independent rear suspension. Also for 2014, another EA888 1.8-liter turbocharged base four-cylinder engine forced the cantankerous 2.5-liter five-cylinder into retirement. Go into the 2015 Jetta, featuring its midcycle update which brings new front and back styling, enhanced interior components (including-at last-a soft-touch dash top), plus a new EA288 diesel engine in TDI models. Alas, it seems that the Jetta has now become the vehicle Volkswagen must have been building forever.
Typically, the most critical aspects of the vehicle’s midcycle refresh are modified lighting and fascia aspects, however in the 2015 Jetta’s case, they're arguably the least fascinating of the changes. A new grille focuses on the car’s width, along with the latest rear bumper, while new headlamps offer extensively accessible LED daytime running lamps along with the taillamps evoke its Audi-brand cousins. As well as the first time, perhaps the lowest priced Jetta rides on aluminum wheels. How much the modifications increase the Jetta’s appears depends on the observer, however arguably it is ever tougher to tell the gap amongst the Jetta and also the one-size-up Passat.
The cabin, when one of the Jetta’s worst features, has turned into a convincingly nice place to spend time for 2015. It’s still Teutonically austere plus the door panels are hard plastic, however the dashboard appears much classy, dressed since it is with tunneled indicators and refractive piano-black trim sections. High-end content like navigation has trickled down from higher trims to low- and mid-grade ranges, and interestingly, an available touch-screen infotainment system without navigation is actually larger than that of the navigation-equipped cars. And also the seats in the S, SE, and SEL models we drove were firm and helpful.
