I own a 2019 GLI which is basically the same as the 2021 except for minor tech differences. It is definitely a sleeper, very fun to drive. Faster than it looks. Aside from the lack of rear a/c vents, a small amount of in cabin noise (still not sure what it could be) and some cheap plastic interior pieces, the car is a solid and fun daily driver. I'm running an updated suspension with PS4 tires and light weight wheels, a stg 1 engine + DSG tune and upgraded catback, upgraded coil packs and spark plugs, turbo inlet. This car is now very smooth and faster.
Yeah, VW says they built into the Jetta GLI , underseat “ ducts “ for ventilation.. I prefer vents on that blank piece of plastic at the end of the console.
best bang for your buck! .. basically a baby Audi . I've driven this car many times and it is way more responsive and sporty than my buddies A4 .. this Gli is basically a S4 minus the Quattro. Get one.
Picked up a 2020. Like it even more than imagine. I’m coming from a 2020 A3 Quattro. I loved the Audi look but at an athletic 235. It was a little small for me. I have more space, more safety, more tech, and ventilated seats in Louisiana summer is a big plus. I do miss the Quattro for taking off from a dead stop rapidly. Hopefully new tires will resolve the issue but the factory all seasons spin under quarter throttle with a stage 1 tune. They don’t hook for shit.
11:52 the LED cluster was one of the reasons I went with the S model. I have an issue with migraines and headaches (drive with sunglasses at night) so I don't want that stuff. If I could get rid of the touch screen radio I would.
Where are the fog lights? Mesh net to cover sun roof? Where's my Fender sound system? What's that fake "sport" sound? I don't want neon lights. I want more power. I want the emergency brake instead of pen holder. I'm gonna cry.
@@Mr20001 Yup it is But Jetta is More Like This Compact & Midsize Sedan Like Ford Fusion,Chevrolet Malibu,Honda Accord,Toyota Corolla,Nissan Sentra,Honda Civic,Nissan Altima,Toyota Camry,Kia K5,Hyundai Elantra or Mazda 3 Sedan Right

Idk 349 hp from a 3.0 turbo v6 way different than a GLI lol. More like a mini A4

Awsome gages!!!
Gti with a Gli body. I had both. If I had a choice between which I like better i would pic a Gti. But you get a better deal with a Gli.
If you have the "S" model turn the ESC to sport and put the trans in sport. Much quicker.
Remote start does not come standard on the 2021 GLI S.
So when are you reviewing the 2022 Nissan Pathfinder?
Why would a person get a 2021 gli next month vw going to get a make over for the 2022 jetta
It's not getting a makeover next year unfortunately
Nope nevermind your right I thought since they just redesigned they wouldn't be doing anything
@@princedarkness8029 a lot of people was complaining how cheap it was compared to the others this new jetta is going to have internet just like chevy
@@princedarkness8029 I hope it going at the ny auto show
Is that a Jetta or 11th generation Civic?

Poor Man's Arteon!
much faster than
Only an idiot would buy an Arteon. Way over-priced.
More Like a Chevrolet Malibu or Ford Fusion
This is better than both of those...
