    I like the headlights on the 2025 Jetta. The rear tail-lights in the new Jetta is an improvement.
    That said, the interior of the 2024 is so much better sadly.

    Nice review. I just bought one of these and love it. The seats in an SEL are actual leather, not leatherette.

      I had a 2019 Jetta for 4 years/45,000 miles before I went to an SUV. It was rock solid, never gave me an issue.

      I can understand that, the Jetta has a longer warranty, and a few of my friends have new civics and they have had significant suspension and AC problems, as well as excessive oil burning starting at 20,000 mi. As well as some of the trim, check out the current gen Civic next time you drive by one and look at the window trim it literally fades within months of being brand new, unacceptable

      ​@@great_deceptionyeah the 1.4 t is so reliable, my female friend has a 2016 and 200,000 mi the only problem was a turbo actuator which was only about 600 bucks. They are solid, great gas mileage, and the 2019 got the 8-speed aisin which is Toyota so reliable. The 1.5T seems to be fairly reliable as well but I don't have any reference points personally

      @juliofierro3952 electrical, window and Central locking issues? Very common in mk5, mk6, you know early mid late 2000s. I've had some very reliable Volkswagens and Audis. I did have a 1999 Jetta and the transmission went out, up until last year I did not know that it had a 100,000 Mi warranty and I could have gotten it replaced for free😡🤔🤯

    Love the Jetta, it gets fantastic fuel economy, almost hybrid like. Very upscale, great power, I would love a bigger infotainment screen. Shopping in this price range The Jetta was always my choice for subcompact. However the new Civic hybrid touring is about $1,000 more for the top trim, extremely fast relatively speaking and great gas mileage. Would have to drive both back to back.

    It won't even last as half as the civic unfortunately. The 4 cylinders they have in Jetta and Taos have problems.

    I think this Jetta refresh looks great inside and out. I don’t keep my cars long-term, so I would definitely consider it over a Honda Civic.

    It is not fake leatherette it is real Vienna leather. It is also underrated. 7.1 0-60. Definitely making more than 158 hp and It is probably making more like 200 lb ft of torque.

    So a base civic is 24 grand and a base Jetta is 22 why the difference ? The interior quality looks maybe a little better in the Jetta also this particular Jetta is 31 grand, the more performance oriented GLI version is 32 grand

    Great review Matt! I mean for the $$ to me this is a great deal for the amount of equipment it has. I look forward to you hopefully doing a review of the GLI which for me will be a mini Audi for sure. I've not had any of your video's pop up in my feed lately and I'm guessing UA-cam's algorithms are to blame. Hope all is well and again an excellent review!

    • @executiveauto

      The Civic Hybrid hatchback is the way to go imho. Power, mileage . Reliability and maintenance cost of Honda is lower … at least in Canada … where I live . So for me … not a Civic killer . The VW that tempts me is the GTI or R .

    Its iight. The screen is worse than previous and its still missing basic things like brake hold and parking sensors. Let alone rear vents. And whats the point of changing the hvac controls to capacitive. Just seems like change for the sake of change.

      @@lucyfan1976 I’m speaking of sales figures. Annually, Honda sells over 200k civics and VW sells 1/4 of that. The interior may be better and the drivetrain, but more ppl will gravitate towards the civic. It’s the same for the Kia K5. I think it’s a beautiful car with better tech than the Camry and the Accord, however, it will not be appreciated much or sell as many units as said cars.
