Rowing through the gears of a 2015 Volkswagen Jetta S TDI’s six-speed manual transmission since we roll across the scenic two-laners of Virginia’s horse country, we marvel on the truth that we’re actually enjoy the fun. Yep, fun. In a Jetta.
Never would we have expected this when Vw first released the existing Jetta to the 2011 type year. As it boasted improved space, son-of-Audi styling, plus a more reasonable price, the Jetta was soundly criticized for its utter dearth of character, relentlessly cheap-feeling cabin, gruff five-cylinder base engine, and chassis which had regressed in the Ancient with back drum brakes along with a torsion-beam rear suspension.
Since then, VW has made incremental and substantial enhancements for the North American bread-butterer, and by 2014, all U.S.-market Jettas featured four-wheel disc brakes and an independent rear suspension. Furthermore 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 rear design, improved interior components (including-at last-a soft-touch dash top), and a new EA288 diesel engine in TDI models. Alas, it seems that the Jetta has now become the car Volkswagen should have been building since the beginning.
Usually, the most significant parts of the vehicle’s midcycle renew are modified lighting and fascia elements, however in the 2015 Jetta’s case, they are arguably at least fascinating of the upgrades. A brand new grille focuses on the car’s wider, along with the latest rear bumper, while new headlamps give extensively offered LED daytime running lights and the taillamps evoke its Audi-brand cousins. But for the first-time, perhaps the least expensive Jetta drives on aluminum tires. To what extent the revisions help the Jetta’s appears is up to a viewer, nevertheless arguably it has become actually harder to tell the gap regarding the Jetta and the one-size-up Passat.
The interior, when one of the Jetta’s worst attributes, has turned into a convincingly nice place to hang out for 2015. It’s still Teutonically austere plus the door panels are tough plastic, but the dashboard appears much classier, covered as it is with tunneled gauges and reflective piano-black trim panels. High-end material like navigation has trickled below higher trims to low- and mid-grade ranges, and interestingly, an available touch-screen infotainment system without navigation is in fact bigger than that of the navigation-equipped cars. And the seats of the S, SE, and SEL models we drove were secure and supportive.
