I have only had my 2023 VW Jetta Sport for a little over a month. So far, I have only one major complaint that I am deducting one star for. This car does not come with a spare tire!! I had to shell out an extra $300+ to get a compact spare, jack, and lug wrench. This, in my opinion, is a major mistake on the part of the manufacturer for not including one. The Jetta Sport is an overall nice vehicle. The ride is comfortable but, a little stiff. The suspension along with the limited slip differential lets the car corner nicely without any indication of wanting to overbalance. I haven't really pushed the car while cornering but have taken sharp turns at or a little above the posted speed limit without having to back off the accelerator as I would in other cars I have owned. There is some lag in acceleration from the turbo when starting from a dead stop. However, this is a non-issue unless you are trying for best time in the quarter mile. There is also plenty of power for passing on the highway. The driver assist features are nice, although I have not tried them all out yet. The lane assist is a nice feature. It only served to tell me I am almost always staying in my lane. An audible warning would be nice if you edge out of your lane as you have to constantly look at the dash to see the warning. There is also a little icon that pops up if you get too close the car in front of you so you know to back off. Hopefully, I will never have to find out if the Intelligent Crash Response System works. The issues that other reviewers have voiced complaints about (too much plastic in the cockpit and the center console rubbing your right leg) are negligible. The plastic is mainly on the door and center console and makes clean up of spills and dirt a lot easier that if they were covered in expensive leather. Overall a nice riding car with plenty of room, a large trunk, and a body that does not look like every other car on the road. Oh yeah, I am averaging 39 mpg!

MY VW, "Looks like your Audi " LOL

This is my first VW Product and i must say the overall Value is quite impressive. Priced in the mid to low 20,000 range, the sport version is a value package you should consider before stepping our to the SE and SEl. However, i was on a budget and it works for me. go. If you're looking for a refined look without lots of flash, the sport pkg offers very nice features and the ride is European engineered. Fuel consumption is exceptional. And the Sport trim is nice looking and offers everything you need in a car. Overall, the VW Sport Jetta 2024 is more expensive looking that the actual cost would imply. If you like the Audi 4 , you'll like the VW Sport Jetta in 2024. I was at a traffic light parallel to The Audi yesterday both cars in white. aside from the emblems on the vehicles, you couldn't tell the difference. I proudly joked with the other owner! Saying, "MY VW Looks Like Your Audi!... LOL BTW Jack Daniels is very Nice to do Business with...

Exceeded Expectations!

2024 Volkswagen Jetta SE 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I ended up getting a 2024 VW Jetta SE and could not be happier. It is a great car to drive. Very smooth, has good pick up, and an overall perfect ride. The standard features on the SE compared to other cars, like the Honda Civic Sport, are much better in my opinion. It has a stylish, yet modest look. For the price point and class of the vehicle, it is very fun to drive. Bonus points as well for it being quieter than other cars in its class. With the incredible fuel economy and standard tech features, I really believe the SE is the best compact sedan on the market. Love my Jetta!

I primarily bought the Jetta for price but have been surprised by how solid the car feels. Fuel economy is great 37 mpg so far. Handles nicely and is comfortable. Highly recommend.

With 40,000 km on my HighLine Jetta so far , I am extremely pleased. I had one hiccup one day for 3 minutes(which I fixed myself) and otherwise the car has been flawless. The ride is amazingly quiet at highway speeds Most comfortable seats on the planet, Has every tech option available today, Cabin is very elegant with soft touch materials everywhere, Stereo is awesome (Beats), Screen is nicely built into the centre dash and not stuck on top like so many seem to do these days like it was an afterthought. 15,000 km between oil services. An 8 speed transmission that shifts as quick as a DCT without the expensive service intervals that a DCT requires. It might burn 1/5th of a litre oil between oil changes (which is perfect. You won't have to add oil) Center console is not intrusive to leg room like Lexus. I am 6'2 and built like a line backer. This car punches above its class. WAY ABOVE !!
