VW Jetta 2.0 FSI SE: Preview of the UK version
We found a preview of the UK version of the VW Jetta 2.0 FSI SE for our British readers.
How many names does it take to change the image of a four-door Golf? Volkswagen hopes the answer is only three. The firm's compact family saloon has been called the Vento and more recently the Bora, but now bosses have re-introduced a badge that's been extinct in the UK for 16 years. The Jetta is back!
Inside, the dash is identical to the hatch's, right down to the design of the centre console. As a result, buyers enjoy a fine quality cabin with faultless ergonomics. And as with the Golf, the Jetta also has plenty of cubby spaces.
With many examples destined to cover much of their mileage on the motorway, VW hasn't neglected comfort. There's lots of adjustment in the seats, so it's no problem finding an acceptable driving position.
The steering is precise, if a little numb, while the handling is safe, but not exciting. What has got us confused, though, is the pricing. This Jetta is cheaper than the equivalent Golf, yet has a nearly identical amount of kit. Priced from £14,635, the new line-up is bizarrely being sold as a more upmarket choice! Looks like it really could be time to join the Jetta set.
