Used 2021 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Consumer Reviews
Snazzy sporty and comfy
VW interior finish and feel is great. You close the door and you feel you are in a solid car. The driver display is great. The drive options (DSG) gear box to normal automatic driving is a pleasure. The only two things I do not get is why not have the clock on the dashboard and why is the USB port in a tight spot?

Fun to drive
This is my first vw and I absolutely love it. Take it to the canyon and push the car as hard as you dare and it just hugs the curves.

Nice GLI
A test drive will tell you this is a roomy, driver's, performance sedan. My Biggest complaint is the poor audio quality of the Beats sound system. This Very low fidelity Scratchy nasally buzzy system should be Embarrassing for VW. Otherwise no issues so far. The DSG and drive modes give this car multiple personalities. 12/4/20 Besides listening critically to the Beats audio system carefully before you buy, listen to the noise if it has the Hankook tires. Also gauge the ride quality. You may want to upgrade the tire choice before or after you make the purchase. 6/7/21: 30,000 miles and no quality problems at all. 6/8/23: 2019 GLI, 64,000 miles with no quality or reliability problems at all.

Super fun and sporty
Great sporty car. Just picked up a 2019 pure white S with the DSG. Car is awesome! I haven't really got on it as I'm still in the "break in" period (at 600 miles). I really everything about this car from it's looks to it's performance. I sold my 2007 FA5 Si back in 2012 and have been wanting to get back into a sporty sedan ever since. This VW feels so solid and is a step above the current Si in performance and looks. As far as reliability, well only time will tell. I did drop it down 1 star due to there only being 3 option choices. I chose the S for a few reasons. I didn't want the 35th because of the wheels and blacked out roof and side mirrors as I am 45yrs old and it looked for younger folks. The Autobahn was a little more and wasn't wanting black leather as I live in SoCal Inland Empire and the Summers here see quite a few 100+ degree days. I with there was an option for options lol. I would like to have added to sunroof to my S. I will be back to update in the years to come.

A blast to the future
I own the 2020 GLI Autobahn edition with the back package, i love how the car looks, it’s much more powerful than I anticipated with loooots of room and aftermarket options for more power and sound. The all digital displays angle around the driver to make you feel like a pilot. The car is a blast to drive which makes it hard to stay out of the pedal. I love the VW Net app which makes it a breeze to lock the doors if you forget, or even start the car as you are hopping out of the shower getting ready for work!
