Its maximum torque of 240 Newton-meter is available at a low 1,500 rpm. On open road, it can reach a top speed of 220km/h and 0-100 km/h is achieved in 8 seconds. Like the 90 kW TSI, this engine is also exceptionally fuel-efficient. The 118 kW TSI achieves a top value in fuel savings at 6.3 liters.
2.0 TSI with 147 kW: Powered by the 2.0 TSI engine, Jetta turns out to be a veritable sports sedan. The solid front-drive vehicle breaks out of the starting blocks and reaches the 100 km/h mark is just 7.5 seconds and achieves top speed of 235 km/h on the freeway – without a surcharge for urgent delivery.

The Jetta 2.0 TDI achieves a top speed of 209 km/h and accelerates from zero to 100 km/h is just 9.3 seconds. In contrast, the average fuel consumption lies at only 4.9 liters over a distance per 100 kilometers. As standard equipment manual six-gear transmission relays engine performance to the front wheels.
The Volkswagen Jetta range comes standard with a 5 year/60 000km AutoMotion Plan, 3 year/120 000km warranty and a 12 year anti-corrosion warranty. Service Interval is 15 000km.
