Thrills come

Technology

GLI styling

Dynamic Chassis Control

High-performance gets high-tech in the

Jetta GLI. The fully immersive, customizable

and configurable Volkswagen Digital Cockpit

comes standard on this model. Keyless entry

and wireless charging offer the ultimate in

convenience, or for audiophiles, the BeatsAudio®

premium sound will delight with its 8 speaker

and subwoofer studio-quality output.

GLI’s standard black pack includes a black rear

spoiler that enhances the sporty silhouette,

while the black exterior mirror housings and

roof elements add to its already good looks,

as do the 18” black Sevilla alloy wheels. On

the inside, configurable ambient lighting, a

leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, rail 2 rail

sunroof and ventilated and heated front seats

with red accent stitching ensure the GLI always

steers clear of mediocrity.

Mechanical limited-slip differential

The mechanical limited-slip differential

automatically adjusts torque between the

front wheels for precise power delivery while

cornering or in slippery conditions.*

The Jetta GLI features sport-tuned Dynamic

Chassis Control (DCC), a computer-controlled

adaptive damping system that ensures

a balance between razor-sharp handling

responses and ultimate driving comfort.

Using the standard Drive Mode select system,

drivers can customize their preferred settings

for DCC, steering weight, throttle response,

differential lock, and more.

Power meets style in the revved-up Jetta

GLI performance sedan. Built for open roads

and city streets, the GLI sports a mighty

228-horsepower turbocharged engine, sport-

tuned Dynamic Chassis Control suspension

and mechanical limited-slip differential.

*Please drive safely and obey all traffic laws,

including speed limits.

†Driver assistance features. Drivers must continue to perform

manual checks and pay full attention to the road and safe driving.

Please review the owner’s manual for feature limitations.

2.0 TSI engine

The 2.0 TSI engine with class leading standard

torque is perfect for the conscientious

car lover who seeks the balance between

performance and fuel economy. To make

matters more thrilling, a 6-speed manual

transmission provides a greater level of driver

involvement, or you can choose the 7-speed

dual-clutch (DSG) automatic gearbox for near-

instantaneous gear changes.*
