The 2025 Volkswagen Jetta and Jetta GLI models bring a fresh take on the long-standing favourite in the Canadian market. These updated vehicles offer refined style, enhanced technology, and improved value, continuing Volkswagen's legacy of quality and innovation that began in 1980.
1- Distinctive Exterior Design
The 2025 Jetta models showcase a modernized exterior that catches the eye. The front fascia features new upper and lower grille designs, complemented by modern LED headlights. Starting from the Comfortline trim with the Sport package, an available light bar adds a touch of sophistication. The rear end receives an elegant update with a new trunk lid featuring a standard light bar that connects the taillights, creating a cohesive and stylish look.
New wheel options enhance the Jetta's profile. Comfortline models sport new 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels, while Highline and GLI trims roll on 18-inch alloys. For those seeking a bolder appearance, the GLI offers an optional Black package. Two new exterior colours join the palette: Monterey Blue Pearl and Alpine Grey, providing more options to suit individual tastes.
2- Revamped Interior with Advanced Technology
The 2025 Jetta's interior receives a comprehensive update, starting with a redesigned dash. A three-bar design flows across the upper dash and through the air vents, guiding the eye to the new centerpiece of the cabin - a floating touchscreen infotainment system, now standard across all models. This modern interface enhances both aesthetics and functionality.
Adding to the sleek look of the center stack, Climatronic Touch automatic climate control comes standard in all models. The Jetta offers a range of seating materials and colours across different trims. The Trendline features Rhombus cloth seats in Titan Black with Brushed Silver décor. Comfortline models introduce perforated, two-tone Microcloud leatherette seating surfaces in Grigio/Titan Black or Atlantic Blue/Storm Grey combinations, paired with String Figure décor. The Highline trim boasts perforated Vienna leather seating surfaces in Grigio/Titan Black or the new Sevilla/Titan Black colour combination, accented by Horizon Black décor.
3- Performance and Efficiency
The Jetta balances sporty performance with excellent fuel efficiency. It comes equipped with a 1.5-litre turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower. This powerplant pairs exclusively with an eight-speed automatic transmission, ensuring smooth and responsive acceleration while maintaining fuel economy.
For those craving more power, the Jetta GLI steps up with a 2.0-litre EA888 engine. This robust powerplant delivers 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, providing exhilarating performance. Drivers can choose between a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for quick, seamless shifts or a six-speed manual gearbox for a more engaging driving experience.
4- Sport-Tuned Jetta GLI Features
The Jetta GLI, often referred to as the "GTI with a trunk," caters to sport enthusiasts with its performance-oriented features. Larger brakes provide enhanced stopping power, while the VAQ electronically-controlled torque-sensing limited-slip differential improves traction and handling in various driving conditions.
The GLI also incorporates the XDS electronic differential lock, which further enhances cornering performance by applying brake pressure to the inside wheel during turns. The DCC adaptive damping system allows drivers to adjust suspension settings to suit their preferences or road conditions. A unique sport exhaust system not only enhances performance but also provides a more aggressive sound that complements the GLI's sporty character.
Conclusion
The 2025 Volkswagen Jetta models offer many great reasons for drivers to take notice. From the distinctive exterior design and advanced interior technology to the impressive performance and sport-focused features of the GLI, these vehicles provide a well-rounded package that caters to a variety of preferences.
