2011 VW Jetta: Bigger And Cheaper
If you're a fan of VW, you'll be excited to know that the German automaker is making waves again with the release of the 2011 Jetta, which is expected to go on sale this fall. The muscular-looking 2011 Jetta is not only larger than the current model, but it will cost less to own, too. The current Jetta starts out close to $18,500, while the 2011 Jetta is expected to come in at around $16,000.
And while the Jetta is the same width as the current-generation, the 2011 VW has grown close to 3 inches, which means more legroom. Besides dramatic changes outside, VW has reworked the inside with new controls for climate, radio and a navigation system.
Under the hood VW enthusiasts want be disappointed. Four engines will be available :a 2.0-liter turbodiesel direct injection (TDI), a 2.0, a 2.5 R5 and as of 2011, the 2.0 TSI. All Jetta engines will be offered with a manual transmission as standard equipment. An automatic transmission will also be available with each engine version as an option. On the new 2.0-liter TDI and 2.0-liter TSI, Volkswagen will offer the 6-speed DSG – one of the most advanced and efficient automatic transmission systems in the world, according to the German automaker.
