Let me preface that I have owned many vehicles with many different domestic and foreign manufacturers and I find the Jetta a good value. VW hasn't had the best historical quality ranking reviews online, however their better than industry warranty for 2019. It's the only car that the more I drive it, the better the gas mileage I get... over 40-45 mph... a great 1st car for my son. We purchased him in 2019 a new R line. He still drives it with no manufacturer issues other than a chip needing to be replaced. I can say we are satisfied 6 years later & we bought a new 2024 SE for my second son. I offered to swap the 2024 for the 2019 with my first son so he could have the newer car, and he declined. He loves his 2019. So now we have 2 in the family and I'll most likely purchase a 3rd for myself later in the year. Love the sunroof and pleather seats are easy to clean. Local dealer service has been great. Includes 2 years service free of charge. Wish the lower trims had heated steering wheel and rear seats. A little more pep would be nice but it's a give and take, and I prefer the better gas mileage. Having owned a Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevy, GMC, BMW, etc., in my opinion I don't think this car is lesser a value that other brands and I don't think it's worth paying $2-3000 more to buy a Toyota or Honda. I've never had the experience where I got more money for a trade because it was a Honda or Toyota. The way I see it, if later down the line I have to spend $2-3000 on a repair, I'll call it even, and if I don't, great! I'm ahead. Plus they've been making this body style for a while so the kinks should be worked out. Just my two cents.

Suspiciously good mpg

I love this car. Can get it up to 50mpg on the highway with the ac running. The lane keeping assist and acc are handy on long highway trips. The XDS from the gti is fun on the sport. The interior is clean, sharp, driver focused and you can get it with a manual! My few dislikes are no auto ac, and the suspension is a bit rough off-road.

2024 Volkswagen Jetta S 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

There is virtually no road noise when driving, the gas mileage is great (I am getting over 600 miles to a tank of gas and the car doesn't even have 2000 miles on it yet). It looks like it spent last night on the showroom floor! The feel of driving and riding as a passenger is solid and handling is a dream. For a small car, it's a got great big personality!

2022 Volkswagen Jetta S 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

First I want to say when we bought this car in 2022 there weren't many options available. At the dealer we bought this from it was the only one in stock and we needed to be out of our lease at the time. We bought the one and only on the lot which was the base Jetta S. I'll start with the good, this will be quick. I get really good gas mileage, upper 30's on average and can get upper 40's on the highways, there is plenty of power to get going and to pass slower drivers. Now to the bad. The tires are crap, it has power to move but the tires slip all the time, even on slower take offs they will spin. Wet roads? Be careful as the stock tires have no traction in the rain. The seats are uncomfortable for longer trips, the center console comes out too far into my right leg as I'm driving and is just annoying, the base radio is trash like old car kinda trash not the typical decent stock radios in most cars these days. It really sounds horrible. The rear brake pads wore out at only 24k miles which I have never seen in my 43 years of driving. My last car stock brakes lasted to well over 60k miles and I downshift going down hills to help my brake life. VW won't warranty them and I wasn't about to spend over $900 for them to replace the pads and the rotors so I did the job myself in my driveway.. I am also getting random electrical issues which of course random issues are hard to diagnose, if the issues don't happen when the car is at the dealer then you're out of luck. There is a nice hum going on driving down the road, I thought it may be a wheel bearing but the dealers assures me it's not and is suspecting the noise is coming from a tire or tires. I've never heard a noise like this from a tire either but I guess it could be and would be another negative to the already bad tires so that means spending more money for this low milage car. I regret buying this car and want to get something else. I will never buy a VW again.

This car holds the road, has pep and goes over bumps very smoothly. Different drive modes are available on the SEL.
