Rowing from the gears of an 2015 Volkswagen Jetta S TDI’s six-speed manual transmission as we roll over the scenic two-laners of Virginia’s horse country, we marvel at the truth that we’re actually enjoy the fun. Yep, fun. On a Jetta.
Never would we've predicted this back when Volkswagen first released the present Jetta to the 2011 type year. As it boasted improved space, son-of-Audi styling, and a more competitive price, the Jetta was soundly criticized to its utter dearth of character, relentlessly cheap-feeling cabin, gruff five-cylinder basic engine, and chassis that have regressed in the Dark Ages with back drum brakes plus a torsion-beam rear suspension.
Since then, VW has produced incremental and substantial enhancements to the North American bread-butterer, and with 2014, all U.S.-market Jettas featured four-wheel disc brakes plus an independent rear suspension. Also for 2014, the latest EA888 1.8-liter turbocharged base four-cylinder engine forced the cantankerous 2.5-liter five-cylinder into retirement. Go into the 2015 Jetta, having its midcycle update which brings new front and back styling, upgraded interior materials (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 car Volkswagen must have been building forever.
Usually, the most important parts of the vehicle’s midcycle renew are modified lighting and fascia aspects, but in the 2015 Jetta’s case, these are arguably the least interesting of the updates. A new grille focuses on the car’s width, as does the new rear bumper, as new head lights offer extensively available LED daytime running lamps along with the taillamps evoke its Audi-brand cousins. And for the first time, perhaps the cheapest Jetta rides on aluminum wheels. To what extent the revisions help the Jetta’s appears is up to a observer, yet arguably it is now actually tougher to see the difference between the Jetta and also the one-size-up Passat.
The interior, when one of the Jetta’s worst attributes, has become a convincingly nice place to spend time for 2015. It’s still Teutonically austere plus the door panels are hard plastic, but the dashboard appears far classier, covered which is with tunneled indicators and reflective piano-black trim sections. High-end material such as navigation has trickled down from higher trims to low- and mid-grade levels, and interestingly, an available touch-screen infotainment system without navigation is actually bigger than that from the navigation-equipped cars. And also the seats on the S, SE, and SEL models we drove were secure and helpful.
