Never would we have expected this when Volkswagen first released the latest Jetta for the 2011 type year. As it boasted increased space, son-of-Audi styling, along with a more reasonable price, the Jetta was soundly criticized for the utter dearth of character, relentlessly cheap-feeling cabin, gruff five-cylinder basic engine, and chassis which had regressed in the Ancient with back drum brakes along with a torsion-beam back suspension.
Since then, VW has created incremental and substantial improvements to the North American bread-butterer, and by 2014, all U.S.-market Jettas featured four-wheel disc brakes and an independent rear suspension. Also for 2014, a new EA888 1.8-liter turbocharged base four-cylinder engine forced the cantankerous 2.5-liter five-cylinder into retirement. Enter the 2015 Jetta, with its midcycle update which brings new front and back styling, upgraded interior materials (including-at last-a soft-touch dash top), and a new EA288 diesel engine in TDI models. Alas, it appears that the Jetta has now become the vehicle Volkswagen ought to have been building since the beginning.
Usually, the most critical aspects of the vehicle’s midcycle refresh are modified lighting and fascia aspects, but in the 2015 Jetta’s case, they are arguably the least fascinating of the changes. A new grille focuses on the car’s size, along with the latest back bumper, as new headlamps offer extensively offered LED daytime running lamps along with the taillamps evoke its Audi-brand cousins. But for the first-time, perhaps the lowest priced Jetta drives on aluminum wheels. How much the modifications enhance the Jetta’s looks is up to the viewer, yet arguably it is now actually harder to tell the gap between the Jetta and also the one-size-up Passat.
The interior, once among the Jetta’s worst attributes, has become a convincingly nice place to hang out for 2015. It’s still Teutonically austere along with the door panels are hard plastic, however the dashboard looks much classier, covered as it is with tunneled indicators and reflective piano-black trim sections. High-end content such as navigation has trickled down from higher trims to low- and mid-grade ranges, and interestingly, an available touch-screen infotainment system without navigation is really larger than that of the navigation-equipped cars. And the seats of the S, SE, and SEL types we drove were firm and helpful.
