Offered as a performance version of the fantastic Volkswagen Jetta, the 2024 VW Jetta GLI is packed with a wide range of standard niceties and tech features that make it an excellent choice for families big and small. If you are in the market for a compact sedan, this brand-new model might just be the perfect option. At your trusted VW dealer, we have gathered three key features that will make you fall in love with the new Jetta GLI.

1. A Responsive, Powerful, and Efficient Powertrain

The new 2024 Jetta GLI is available in two distinct trim levels, both of which are powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged TSI four-cylinder engine that makes 228 horsepower and 258 pounds of torque. While a six-speed manual transmission is standard across the board, drivers can also opt for a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic unit, which is available as an optional add-on.

No matter which transmission you choose, the new Jetta GLI is faster and more responsive than the standard Jetta, delivering all the thrust you need to confidently merge and overtake while cruising down the highway.

2. Cutting-Edge Safety and Connectivity Technologies

Both trim levels of the new Jetta GLI come standard with the latest tech features in the auto industry, including a comprehensive suite of driver-assist technologies and class-leading infotainment features. Volkswagen’s standard IQ.DRIVE system includes forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian monitoring, adaptive cruise control, a lane keeping system, active blind spot monitoring, and rear traffic alert.

In the area of infotainment and connectivity, the 2024 Jetta GLI boasts an MIB3 eight-inch infotainment touchscreen with Composition Media, offering effortless smartphone connectivity. Both trim levels come standard with Bluetooth technology for compatible devices, SiriusXM with 360L, a wireless charging pad, and two USB-C ports in the center console. A secondary 10.25-inch display is the Jetta GLI’s fully digital instrument cluster.

3. A Comfortable and Spacious Cabin

Offering 41.1 inches of legroom in the front seats and 37.4 inches in the second row, the 2024 Jetta GLI is spacious, comfortable, and versatile. The cabin of both trim levels is equipped with plenty of standard equipment, including a 10-color ambient lighting system, a leather-wrapped sport steering wheel with touch functions, Climatronic automatic climate control, and heated front seats.
