Volkswagen Reveals 2016 Jetta GLI

Volkswagen today unveiled the 2016 Jetta GLI, which returns with a sportier appearance and upgraded features. Essentially the sedan version of the Golf GTI four-door performance hatchback, the Jetta GLI comes with a 2.0-liter direct-injected four-cylinder engine that makes 210 horsepower; it has a sport-tuned suspension.

The new model year brings more aggressive exterior styling, led off by a honeycomb grille and fog lights in the front, along with a redesigned rear bumper with a diffuser and dual chrome-tipped tailpipes. Eighteen-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and all-season tires are standard; summer performance tires are optional.

All Jetta models get Volkswagen's new MIB 2 multimedia system, as well as standard post-collision braking, which reduces damage from additional collisions that follow the initial impact. The SE trim includes LED taillights, keyless entry, push-button start, dual-zone climate control, a sunroof, a six-way power driver seat, a backup camera, park assist, heated seats, rain-sensing wipers and a premium Fender audio system. The SEL trim adds blind spot detection with rear traffic alert, navigation and adaptive bi-xenon headlights.


The automaker expects the GLI to hit dealerships in August or September. Pricing was not immediately available, but the 2015 version started at $27,740, including an $820 destination charge.
