    My commute into work today - I averaged 46.7 mpg
    These new Jettas can get killer gas mileage.

      With high test gas my 2016 gets 45 MPG on the Highway , I had mind for 3 years trouble free . And put on rear tires to pass inspection , and of course oil changes. That has been it and with the clutch it has power .Only complaint if you need work or maintenance do not bring it to the dealer , There bad and will take advantage of you big time . Example just 2 tires 400 bucks its a jetta not a Mercedes , Took it to a tire shop house brand 171 bucks out the door . For the money its good you like the car

    That driver side roof grab handle is an ease of access feature...very useful for an older people that had like artificial hip replacement surgery...my late father used it every time and always said thank god it's there cause it was very hurtful for him to exit or enter the vehicle...my guess is that it also helps in those situation to put the weight pressure on chassis rather then on an opened door which can cause broken or bent door hinges...people with such difficulties used to grab the opened door frame to assist themselves while getting in/out of the vehicle...as long as i remember, and i was born in 1977., we had a golf in our yard and all our golfs had drivers side grab handle...it's that simple but lifesaving small things in a car that keeps us smiling and ultimately owning a vw vehicle, i guess...love the review btw

    As of the 1.4 engine 147 Horse power 183 torque, it’s more than enough.

      maher bashawry Hi! Is the cabin quiet? I currently have heard mixed reviews. I have a 2016 SEL Hybrid which I have leased. Several people have told me not to buy it, but look at the 2019 Jetta. There seems to be a lot of wind noise with my car. Thanks!

      @maherbashawry7966 5 років тому +3

    • @kimbrooksmiller7823
      @kimbrooksmiller7823 5 років тому

      maher bashawry - Thank you for your information and offer to test drive it. I live in IL, so it’s a bit of a distance . Thank you, anyway. It will be interesting to test drive and see how it handles, rides and check out the stereo system. If I would purchase it, I would go with the SEL. It’s what I have now and really like it. What octane gas do you use with It? Right now, with my hybrid, I have to use a high octane for the turbo injection.

    • @maherbashawry7966
      @maherbashawry7966 5 років тому +1

      I am using 87, and I drive in the economy mode all the time . I am getting 41 MPG 60% highway 40% city. I have a 2018 corolla I stopped driving it since I bought my Jetta.
      The adaptive cruise control is amazing even in heavy traffic, it slows down and accelerate without pressing the gas pedal. The beats sound system is very good. The lane departure is very effective, the blind spot protection brings you back to your lane if the is a car next to you ( of course you can override it ). The Apple CarPlay is amazing. Believe me you will love the car.
      The engine power 1.4 turbo is more than enough.

    It’s built on the same platform as the Golf, as well as the Tiguan, Arteon, A3, and TT. It’s legitimately a baby Audi. Just bought mine after the transmission on my Fiesta ST blew up. It’s a little floaty feeling compared, but other than that it feels like I upgraded from a 90’s Honda to a modern BMW 😂. VAG knows how to do small turbo engines right. It makes about 40 less HP and it’s a bit heavier, but the 2 extra gears from the auto and the same torque make it feel pretty much the same. It falls on its face at about 5k getting on the highway, but I really don’t do that often anymore. Maybe 3 times a month. Perfect intro into the VAG family

Since we're an automotive group we're only reviewing the products we sell so we always try to catch the "latest and greatest" new cars being produced in our lineups. As far as the transmission is concerned...I didn't see a trans dipstick so I'm guessing it's sealed...but then again I didn't look too hard..:) Steve

      @@Vostop Bingo. It's a light car, that's the engineering behind that engine choice. Plus, it's designed for good ghastly mileage, not power. Perfect for this hombre.

    I would not buy this car again. I have the 2019 Jetta S , 2 months old, 5 issues including the grinding noise, a panel popping off, a recall, camera that intermittentling stops and another sensor that doesn't work if rain or slight slush: ua-cam.com/video/zrORLIm9WEI/v-deo.html that's my review. Dealer doesn't believe me on the noise which is clearly audible at 3 minutes, especially with headphones. They said this is "normal for a Volkswagen"

    don't knock it till you drive it...it's Audi light....it's not a CVT engine but same gas mileage as one...the turbo engine is a gem but emits some audible darth vader like breathing when at high gear (D7) and low rpm(1200) when putting more weight on the gas...otherwise I prefer the ride over the civic (and easier to get into the car) and the mazda (a lot quieter and spacious) ...lets wait and see how much the GLI is
