The 2020 Volkswagen Jetta is a no brainer for a reliable and stylish vehicle.
Have had the for 2 months now. The gas mileage is exceptional getting 46 mpg on the highway and 30 mpg in the city. It is a 6 speed manual with a very soft clutch. Apple carplay, Bluetooth, cruise control and front heated seats. Maintenance package is covered up to 50,000 miles.

The Jetta is comfortable and just sporty enough for an entry-level car.
I really enjoy my Jetta. I have not had any major problems so far. It is comfortable and handles well for an entry-level vehicle. It is no sports car by any means, but it will handle curves without trouble. I love all the technology and features for the price. Adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, digital instruments, ambient lighting, and more. My only complaints would be the engine can make unpleasant noises, but it is not often. Also, the beats audio system is less impressive than one might expect.

2019 Volkswagen Jetta wind noise.
My main concern with the vehicle is the amount of cabin noise when I drive. Typically, I drive exclusively on the highway, so I drive at 70 mph +. It gets annoying having to hear the wind rattle on my way to work. Aside from that, the performance, reliability, and the features are fine given the price tag of the car.

2020 Volkswagen Jetta an amazing car no one wants to buy.
I give 4 stars due to the fact that shortly after I got my car it needed to be serviced. Other than that it's a great car the manual shifter is really good and easy to switch gears with a really nice click when it does pop into gear. Although the manual is really great a major setback it the rev hang when changing gears. When trying to switch gears fast the rev hang makes shifting clunky, slow, and generally unpleasant. However that being said the car really wasn't to be a fast shifting manual car due to the nature of the car being an economy car. The dual-clutch auto transmission shifts very smoothly and quickly so if you want fast shifts pick the automatic trans.

Only one USB port stinks - two more would be nice.
No problems, great acceleration, comfortable seats front and back. Doors open and close like normal, acceleration is pretty good but not lightning fast. The turbo adds a bit of snazzy snap to everyday driving. Who wants a slow sedan, not this guy for sure.

Fantastic car with great features.
Very comfortable with great cold weather features including heated seats and steering wheel. It is reliable and feels like a luxury vehicle with a reasonable monthly lease payment. It has a sport mode which allows you to merge on a parkway easily. The trunk is huge and comes with durable rubber floor mats.

The Jetta r line has a turbo, a small one but it helps with gas mileage.
The Jetta r line is a reliable car. Great on gas. Only takes $35 to fill the tank. I have had this car for a year and I am very happy with it! I would recommend this car to anyone that wants a nice sporty car at an affordable price. I haven't had any issues with it at all. It runs great and I drive it well. With a full tank I have 400+miles.

New Volkswagen car that is very fast.
It is very fast and pretty new since I bought it 3 months ago. I just bought it so it has no problems that I know of. Although the windshield wipers a little bit of a problem since it takes them longer to clean the windows. I really love the care and recommend to everyone interested in Volkswagen cars.

My risky, but cute Volkswagen Jetta.
It is only front wheel drive, so it will not be so good in snow and rain. It drives pretty smoothly. I love the interior! It is black and white leather, so it looks sporty. The seats are very comfortable, and you can store many things inside. The exterior is white. This car has apple carplay, which was one of the reasons why I purchased this car. My car also has a good size sunroof.

Super gas saver and just a great car.
Just got the thing recently and I save a lot of money on gas. Has really good gas mileage and is very comfortable. The audio system is great with its Bluetooth enabled system. Drives really smoothly. One thing though is that it isn't a super fast car and doesn't accelerate as quickly as other cars.

2020 Jetta s - comfortable, stylish and roomy.
The Volkswagen Jetta s has been reliable and provided good service. It gets me where I need to go comfortably and in style. The interior is very comfortable and provides support for long trips. It also is surprisingly large inside. It is roomy, comfy and very enjoyable to drive.

My favorite feature, it charges your phone when it is connected to auto connect.
It is an amazing vehicle with all the latest features, handles amazing and gets great fuel mileage. Very spacious for my 3 children with a lot of trunk space. Comfortable with smooth suspension. Fun car with lots of power, especially love sports mode. Wish it was a tdi is my only complaint.

VW Jetta r-line - a must look.
Great reliability, sporty, great gas mileage, nice standard features, etc. E.G. Apple carplay, moonroof, heated seats/steering wheel. Fast acceleration driving around town and passing on the highway. Would recommend to a friend. Good warranty. Love this car!

I love my Jetta, there are so many great features.
I love my car, it handles so well around corners and drives extremely solid during winter especially in snow. I think for a 4 cylinder car it drives like a 6 cylinder, it has a lot of pep and drives smooth. I think Volkswagen makes a terrific car, it is easy to change the oil and fix a flat tire if it ever comes up.
Brian F
on February 4, 2021
Luxurious and economical.
I love the gas mileage the Jetta gets. The stop/start feature is great. Acceleration is very good when you need it but I also like that I can put it in eco mode. The black color looks great but is hard to keep clean. It is comfortable for up to 4 people but probably not any more than that.

Great Volkswagen car to get.
I love it. I love the way it drives, the protection of it and everything. I got in an accident in one but it saved me and god, but I could have died. The are great cars, good on gas, driving, oil, tires, engine and etc. It is the best car you can get.

Recommend the 2020 Jetta s.
The car gets great gas mileage. I do feel like my 2018 was better gas mileages. I would have preferred the leather seats but the prices have gone up this year. Every year they do a lot of upgrades. I do have a rear view camera in my 2020 s. The fabric seats stain very easily. The sound system is good.

Comfort /Technology
I bought 2020 Jetta in November. I have been doing a lot of research on many cars , so I didn’t jump into this. I bought the SE MODEL, it has everything needed for a comfortable drive. I traded a 2012 Mazda 6 in for this. Despite this being considered a compact car, it has plenty of room and is much easier to get out of. Some people complained about it being too “plastic-y.” Anytime there is cloth on the doors of cars it does nothing but get ruined. Everything in here is easy to wipe down. I live in the desert so dust is a constant factor, so an easy wipe down is much appreciated. The engine has plenty get up and go for expressway driving. The cockpit is perfect. I plug my iPhone in and voila! There is my music, maps and all the iPhone apps that I use on a daily basis. Couldn’t be easier. This car was a fair price and for me, it has everything I need for my comfort!

Review of new 2020 Jetta featuring phone integration system.
We have had our Jetta for about a month now. We bought it new and have had no problems so far. My favorite feature is the phone integration system. The system was easy to set up and easily recognizes both my phone and my husband's phone. The screen tilts slightly towards the driver, which is nice. It makes looking at the screen while you are driving easier. The map display and function is awesome. The leg room in this car is spectacular. My husband is over 6'6' and he fits comfortably in both the driver seat and the passenger seat. The trunk is also spacious and can hold a lot.

VW Jetta sel. Fun drive and real good looking.
Very smooth drive. Sound system is awesome and easy to use. Love the exterior color and trim. I enjoy the sunroof in California. Comparing the drive and performance with my last car (Mercedes c class), I am quite impressed. The VW app is helpful with info on the Jetta.

First jett & favorite car.
A vehicle with all wheel drive, great gas mileage, ‘smart’ as a phone with safety and reminder indicators at dashboard. Panoramic sunroof gives sporty class. Rtf tires give sporty fast. Fold down rear seats make space for business. Led headlights allow longer vision views.

Very calming to drive and ride in.
I have all the bells and whistles. Voice command. It is very comfortable to ride in. Nice and quiet. Plenty of trunk space. Gas mileage is incredible on and off the highway. I love driving this vehicle. Very pleased with the overall performance and looks of the vehicle.

Volkswagen Jetta makes driving a pleasure with great safety measures.
I love driving this car. It is quiet, handles well, and has great gas mileage. The horn is a little 'weak'--it sounds like a kid's toy, but other than that, the car is great. The automatic features (slowing down when the car in front slows down) and warnings when cars are in the blind spot have been really helpful.

Looks good inside and out. Garbage transmission.
The whole transmission was replaced after owning it for less than a year. Still has transmission problems and will be taking it back for another service asap! Looks good and has a great interior but I will not be buying another Volkswagen ever again.

Base model Jetta meets expectations, does not exceed.
My Jetta is very comfortable and has a nice quiet and smooth ride to it. There's no issues with reliability and gas mileage is great. The one improvement would be some better performance and I know I have the base model, but the extra features are pretty minimal.
Randy S
on October 4, 2020
Love my new 2020 Jetta - and it gets great mpg.
Great gas mileage and very comfortable for long drives or bopping around town. The best part is that it is the lowest price model that Volkswagen sells while having the best mileage. Switched from a 2017 model to the 2020.

My vehicle is an amazing everyday, reliable car for a young adult.
The car is super sleek and comfortable. The design is inviting and user friendly, as well as being beautifully filled with up to date technology. This is my second Volkswagen that I have purchased and I have been very satisfied with the reliability, comfort and features.

Concerned but comfortable.
Sunglasses holder broke in first week. Check engine light on in first month. Very comfortable and very nice ride but definitely concerning about the check engine light. The heated seats in the front and rear seats is a nice feature. Heated steering wheel is extremely important in the winter.
Maeron K
on September 5, 2020
Quick, efficient, reliable, comfortable vehicle.
Problems include: loud sound after breaking, trunk door opens oddly fast, low to ground. Performance is great, lasts long on the road, smooth driving, can easily speed up and slow down. Comfort: a lot of space available even for a small car, very reliable and sturdy on the road.

VW Jetta best of the best.
I love the Volkswagen brand this is my 10th Volkswagen. I particularly like the Jetta for it is very low maintenance and being very reliable. I would highly recommend the Volkswagen to anyone that is looking for a consistent reliable vehicle. The Volkswagen Jetta is the best of the best.

Comfort and reliability!
I love my car. It is reliable and comfortable. I have heated seats and sunroof. It is amazing. Runs well. Great on gas. All of the luxuries of the car really make it worth the lease price. The automatic start is very convenient especially on cold winter mornings. Every element runs really well.
Monica K

The car that make you feel like you are on the racetrack.
The car is wonderful in appearance. The performance lives up to what is expected from Volkswagen. It is always fun to put it in sport mode. I do miss having a standard but this car somewhat emulates the experience. It is fun to have out on the open road. The seats are comfortable. The sound system is sufficient. All in all a good car. I would highly recommend.

2020 Volkswagen Jetta is an excellent sedan to consider.
So far no problems, just purchased the end of July. This is my 5th Volkswagen Jetta and each one has been very reliable and dependable. Gas mileage is excellent and service is included for the first 30,000 miles. Volkswagen stands behind their warranty.

The backup camera and side monitors are helpful.
This car is incredibly multi-faceted. It features economical and appealing features- and is completely user friendly. This car has very good drivetrain and is a perfect car for a long commute/ longer trips or dailying. I would recommend this car based on the reliability, comfort, and drive of it.

The Volkswagen Jetta, a type of vehicle you want to drive when you are alone.
Volkswagen Jetta driving experience remains intriguing. I recently traded in my 2015 for a 2020. Technically, I only had to get the brakes done and an oil change with my 2015 Jetta in 2 years. I really love the idea of costing down the highway because I live far from where I work.
Jane L

New Jetta exceeds expectations.
My car drives well with good handling and pickup. I also enjoy the trim benefits, including digital cockpit and the stereo system. The leatherette is very comfortable and does not damage easily. It has a heated steering wheel and mirrors, which are great benefits. The car is larger than the older Jetta without being too large, so it is very comfortable to drive and fits what I need. It is an improvement over my older previous Jetta. It also looks better, much sportier than my older version. I haven't had any issues. Gas mileage is great on highways, but much weaker in traffic.
Kristine R

Wonderful affordable safe car!
I love this car! Good apple play system, automatic transmission. Fantastic gas mileage - about 40 mph highway. The only weird thing is I get a notification when the temperature is below 40 - I do not know why this happens. Rear-view camera and warning on window are very helpful.

Sporty car that's fun to drive, inexpensive too!
It is sporty red car with lots of cool stuff from heated seats and steering wheel to great speakers and sound system. It has auto start and auto doors and locks. The back seat is roomy with a large trunk. It comes with durable floor mats for both summer and winter. It handles well and is fun to drive.

I love my 2020 Jetta and you would too:).
I love all the new features in the 2020 Jetta, especially the carnet app, remote start, and digital dash! The mpg is also comparable to other common cars, namely Honda’s and Toyota’s. CarPlay is definitely a must in cars nowadays and I love that it includes a wireless charger!

The Jetta has a nice design that is close to the floor and a great inside tools.
The car's initiation of speed on the highway can take awhile. I do appreciate the car's layout in the interior. The car is also very slick in terms of it is style. I also am very delighted with the car's sound. It is very silent going up to speed through which is nice.

Being smaller than the passat the Jetta is extremely spacious and great ac.
Before I got my Jetta I had 3 other vehicles all used and maybe I just have bad car luck but each one had so many issues I couldn't handle it since owning my Jetta I haven't had a single problem I love the reliability the gas mileage honestly everything about it.

It has rear heated seats.
I have a 2019 Volkswagen Jetta and it runs pretty smooth it has leather seats sunroof rear heating seats front heating seats steering heat and mirrors as well it is a 1.4 liter with a 1.4 turbo jets very efficient on gas. It is metallic blue which is a rare color to find.

It is great on gas, spaces, and it is a great car for a family of five.
It is a super reliable car it gets me from point a to point b no problem and for a sports car it great on gas. It is a great family car because it has very comfortable space in the back seat you do not have to worry about not having any space because no one would ever be uncomfortable.
Brittney H

My Jetta is seriously amazing!
I have not had any problems with my car, so far. It gets great gas mileage and I love how quiet it is. Everyone I know thinks that they car is cute and sporty at the same time, which I love. I also feel very safe in it. My previous car was also a Jetta (a 2005 model) and I got into a wreck and totaled it. However, I was completely fine thanks to the safety features in my vehicle.

Everyone needs to get a Jetta!
I have had almost no problems with the car. It is very reliable and all the sensors that appear are easily diagnosed in a body shop. I love the stick shift and the touch screen is great with apple music. If you ever have to fix something on the car it is relatively easy and quick to get a part in.
Jonathan G

Best vehicle by Volkswagen.
The car is a very nice and comfortable car the seats are wonderful the car is very nice for a small family for about 4 to 2 people or even just yourself. These are some very good and reasonable answers on why the car I have is a very good and useful car for long road trips and for smaller families.

The Jetta is comparable to an Audi.
I love my car honestly. It drives like an Audi and is very stylish. It contains features like apple CarPlay that allows me to listen to music, use navigation, answer calls/ texts safely, etc. It's a very safe car as well. Highly rated. There's a lot of room for a sedan. The sound is incredible as well.
Jet S

Powerful and sharp looking.
My Jetta is awesome! I just do not like that every time you come to a stop it shuts off and then starts back up. I understand that it is a newer feature but it just seems to do it at the wrong time. Like pulling into the driveway. Other than that I love the car.

You can customize the color of your interior lights!
I love my new Jetta. This is my third Volkswagen and third Jetta at that. My new Jetta gets wonderful gas mileage. I typically get around 30-35 miles per gallon depending on the roads I am driving on. It has beats audio speakers which sound very nice. The navigation screen is completely touch screen. It is easy to use and safe-it blocks out features while you are driving.
Hayden B
on November 20, 2018
I love all the settings I can adjust. It picks up speed and stops quickly.
I want vents in the back seat and better suspension. Everything works great and is really convenient especially CarPlay. The tires I was given with the car struggle to gain traction in any type of weather or environment so I am having to buy all new tires.
Kirsten G

Fun but practical, best of both worlds.
Very reliable and drives great. Excellent gas mileage. Eco and sport mode, both great options. Overall a very practical but still fun to drive vehicle. Have not had any issues whatsoever since purchasing almost one year ago, and have only needed one oil change thus far.

It has a very large sunroof that allows for a lot of light.
It is a very smooth ride. It gets good gas mileage. The stereo system is good. I like the way it looks, it is cozy on the inside with a large sunroof. It has good response to the steering wheel and a screen display. I do wish it had a button to adjust the volume of the radio on the steering wheel and not just the knob to turn on the dashboard.
