VW Jetta: Will get VW Golf GTI engine

VW's new Jetta is getting the Golf GTI's 200-hp engine, but probably not the GTI badge.

The high-performance Jetta is set to debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. In Europe it's likely to be called the Jetta 2.0T FSI.

The GTI badge might be used in America, as sedan sales have traditionally been strong. But VW is keen to use the GTI badge only for European-style "hot hatches," so any use on a four-door seems unlikely.
