Volkswagen Jetta Engines and Transmissions

Volkswagen Jetta engine options span both fuels. The 2.0 MT pairs a gasoline unit with a manual gearbox for straightforward, economical driving, while the 2.5 AT adds a smoother automatic and easier motorway cruising. The diesel 2.0 DSG uses a robotic transmission, favouring long-distance fuel economy. All these Estate 5-door examples send power to the front wheels.

Volkswagen Jetta Trims and Equipment

Volkswagen Jetta trim levels sit on top of each technical version rather than replacing it. The Sedan 1.6 DSG, for instance, appears as Trendline and Economy: the same gasoline engine and robotic transmission underneath, but different comfort, convenience and interior equipment. Always check the exact car, since equipment varied by market and options.
