Used 2008 Volkswagen Jetta Pricing
2008 Highlights
The 2008 Volkswagen Jetta sees a few changes. Most notably, the sedan gets a bump up in power, thanks to a revised 2.5-liter standard engine good for 170 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. Trim levels get new names: S, SE and SEL. The 2.0T engine is available only on the newly revised limited-edition Wolfsburg Edition model and the Volkswagen GLI. (Volkswagen has dropped the "Jetta" name in a move to make the GLI similar to the GTI. The GLI is reviewed separately.) A power two-way recline feature for the driver seat is now standard across all trims.
Pros
- Pleasant ride, high-end interior materials, long list of safety features, meticulous build quality.
Cons
- Dull exterior styling contradicts nameplate's youthful image, unspectacular fuel economy.
