In the country, Jetta accumulated a 29% growth with a total sales of 1,363 units all throughout 2017.
Powering the Jetta is a 2.0L Turbocharged Direct injection (TDI) diesel engine, coupled to a 6-speed Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) transmission. This engine can deliver a maximum output of 148 hp and 340 Nm of torque.
Staying true to its legacy, the Jetta not only exudes classy appeal on the outside, but it’s also packed with premium amenities, great vehicle performance, and variety of safety features.
Both Comfortline and Highline variants comes standard with sunroof, keyless entry, push start button, rain sensor, 6-way power driver seat, and 17-inch alloy wheels. For comfort and on-board entertainment, this European sedan features a dual-zone climatic air conditioning system, an 8-speaker sound system, and a 5.8-inch touchscreen color display audio.
To ensure safe driving, the Jetta is integrated with Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP) with Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR), Electronic Differential Lock (EDL), and Engine Drag Torque Control (MSR).
