The 2012 Volkswagen Jetta delivers style and precision German engineering. The Jetta features four engine offerings, including a 2.0-liter turbodiesel direct injection (TDI) Clean Diesel.
A favorite engine choice among Jetta buyers is the highly efficient 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder TDI Clean Diesel engine that produces 140 horsepower and 236 lb.-ft. of torque. With either the standard six-speed manual transmission or the DSG automatic, the Jetta TDI can average 30 miles per gallon in the city and an impressive 42 mpg on the highway. That enables the Jetta TDI to cover up to 609 miles on a single tank.
The Volkswagen Jetta was completely overhauled last model year. Its new wheelbase and exterior length are significantly bigger than its predecessor -- resulting in superior performance, more space and greater comfort. At 182.7 inches long, 57.1 inches tall and 70.1 inches wide, it is more than 3.5 inches longer.
Engineers went to work on the interior down to the finest details, providing a level of quality and perfection far beyond other vehicles in its class. The steering wheel designs impress both visually and to the touch. On the center console are the newly designed and intuitive controls for climate, radio and radio-navigation systems. This console section is slightly inclined toward the driver for ideal alignment of the cockpit.
The rear bench seatback is split 40/60 and folds, increasing the car's versatility. The tailgate can also be opened from inside the car by a remote unlock switch. Up to six airbags are also part of the equipment package.
