They call it “False Spring” in Maine. The weather warms up, and the result is acres and acres of mud everywhere. While it's not good for many outdoor activities, it is made-to-order for all-terrain vehicle testing. That's exactly what co-host Chris Teague did with the 2025 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road. One of several Tacoma variants, the TRD Off-Road is equipped with monotube Bilstein remote reservoir shocks that facilitate extended wheel travel and offer greater heat dissipation, properties that are useful when splashing through the mud. One question many ask about the new Tacoma revolves around the new powertrain. Does the turbo-four adequately replace the tried-and-true V6? Chris Teague will answer that question and many others in his comprehensive review. At the other end of the country, Host Jack Nerad didn't have mud to deal with. Instead, his major obstacle was the heavy traffic around Phonix as snowbirds from the Midwest and West locked to baseball's Spring Training. Nerad's ride for this second stint in Arizona this spring was the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta GLI, the performance version of the popular compact sedan. With 228 horsepower under the hood and a six-speed manual shift lever in his right hand, Nerad and his wife, Sandi, made their way to a pair of exhibition baseball games while simultaneously putting the Jetta GLI through its paces. He'll have a complete report. This week, we have a terrific guest for you. Jason Norton is the director of auto benchmarking at J.D. Power and an expert on vehicle dependability.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast is wrapping up the shortest May ever with a great discussion of a special SUV and a merely average sport compact car. First up Sami drives and reviews the 2024 Land Rover Range Rover LWB SV, a $230,000 SUV with all the cute details and abilities that one would expect out of a product with that pricetag. His criticisms are few, but important, so be sure to listen to the whole discussion. Then Benjamin jumps in to describe his experience in the 2024 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 40th Anniversary, a sport compact car that seems to be from a bygone era, and perhaps left on the vine to rot. Where the GTI gets more power and features, the GLI seems content to compete with just the Honda Civic Si, and mostly on a shoestring budget. What's going on at VW as these kinds of cars stall out in dealerships? Thanks for listening, and be sure to get in touch with us through our website or social media.

The 2024 Volkswagen Jetta GLI is the enthusiasts' Jetta.  It's a compact four-door sedan that seats five.  Aka the Golf GTI with a trunk. And if you're looking to drive with more power, tuned suspension, and overall sportiness.  Then the GLI Jetta is for you.  GLI stands for Grand Luxury Injection.  And a little more background bit for you.  Volkswagen introduced the Jetta to the US market in 1980.  Then they followed with the Jetta GLI in 1984. ⇒ iDriveSoCal's VW Dealer Is Ontario Volkswagen [powerpress channel="podcast" post_type="podcast"] New For 2024 Volkswagen Jetta GLI The biggest news for 2024 GLI is that the enthusiast model is being offered in two different trims.  There's the 40th Anniversary and the Autobahn. GLI now includes Volkswagen's IQ.Drive driver assistance technology on all automatic transmission models.  And that's now standard.  Also new for the 2024 Volkswagen Jetta GLI is a nicety on the Autobahn models.  Because they now come with a heated steering wheel standard. 228 hp & 258 lb-ft of torque Trims And Prices - 2024 VW Jetta GLI For 2024 the VW Jetta GLI is coming in two different trims.  You have the option of the Autobahn or the 40th Anniversary Edition. 2024 VW Jetta GLI Trims & Starting MSRPs: 40th Anniversary Edition $28,085 Autobahn $31,785 It's worth noting that the 40th Anniversary Edition GLI costs slightly less than the top-of-the-line non-GLI Jetta for 2024. Engine, Transmissions & MPG Under the hood is where you'll find a big differentiator between the Jetta and Jetta GLI. Because the GLI comes with a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder with 16 valves.  It's turbocharged and intercooled.  Putting out 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque.  That's a big step up from its more tame sibling.  The non-GLI Jetta offers a 1.5L 4-cylinder putting out 158 hp with 184 lb-ft of torque. GLI comes only in front-wheel drive.  But automatic or manual transmission is being offered on both GLI trims for 2024.  The manual transmission is standard equipment on both trim options.  And the automatic transmission upgrades to a seven-speed dual-clutch. MPG with the manual is being estimated at 24/35/28 - city/highway/combined.  And with automatic transmission GLI's estimated MPG bumps up to 26/36/30 for the same. 7-speed automatic or 6-speed manual trans 2024 Volkswagen Jetta GLI - What Does It Look Like? The Volkswagen Jetta GLI continues its athletic and sporty appearance.   Immediately recognizable are the red GLI badging and accents.  But if you miss the VW badge, you might easily mistake GLI for an Audi.  And being the brand's luxury brethren, that makes sense. Curiously Volkswagen groups the GLI and Jetta in the materials it shares with the automotive press.  However, the engine, suspension and, appearance are all different when comparing the two.  Even the exterior dimensions differ - albeit slightly. Exterior dimensions: Wheelbase 105.6 Track: front 60.5 rear 60.7 Length 186.9 Width 70.8 Height 57.3 Ground clearance 5.2 *All inches Inside The 2024 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Going inside the 2024 Jetta GLI you find the sporty accents continued.  Red GLI branded highlights and stitching adorn the gear shift column, seats, and more.  The stainless steel pedal covers further the sporty motif.   Plus 40th Anniversary Edition trims get a special steering wheel and seat tags.  A common signature differentiator VW adds to various trims and models. Controlling both trims for 2024 is a leather-wrapped steering wheel.  The automatic transmission, of course, includes paddle shifters for taking control of the RPMs. Also coming with GLI is either an aluminum or leather gearshift knob.  Aluminum comes with the standard manual transmission.  And leather comes with the manual trans. Heated front seats come on both trims.  But if you want them ventilated as well then you have to go with the Autobahn trim.

Today's episode begins with cars shoehorned with engines they were never supposed to possess, such as the W124 Mercedes-Benz 500E and R129 SL600. On the opposite end of the engine-size spectrum, Jason also discusses his recent findings in the newest Cammisa Ultimate Drag Race series, featuring new front-wheel drive manual transmission offerings such as the Hyundai Elantra N, Volkswagen Jetta GLI, and Acura Integra (and special guest Ford Bronco Raptor). On the subject of super sedans, Derek discusses his recent adventures in an E39 BMW M5, a car which controversially did not capture his soul. As a two-time six-cylinder E39 owner, Jason chimes in on why Derek might not be so out of line on this rather unusual opinion. Some cars, like the E39 M5 and many other period-exceptional cars, are inherently less desirable for not having enough flaws and subsequent character. What's more- the E39 M5 is an excellent sporting luxury sedan, but is it an excellent sports sedan? A discussion on flawed yet wonderful vs. wonderful yet flawed cars opens the floodgates for many other questions to be answered. For instance, what makes a car significant for its time? What makes a terrible car better than a fundamentally great car over time? What is definition of a sports sedan? What's a sports car? And seriously, why is the Hyundai Elantra N so ugly? All this and more brought to you by the Hagerty Podcast Network

220514 - Volkswagen Jetta GLI by Derrière le Volant

The 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI is refreshed this year.  And I like what The People's Car people have done! For sure the compact sedan always delivers on stylish good looks and performance.  Furthermore, they always manage to do it at a great price point. But even with that in mind, it feels like VW has leveled up its game for this refresh.  Perhaps you'll agree as we unpack this review. Ontario Volkswagen ⇒ iDriveSoCal's Official Volkswagen Dealer 2022 VW Jetta GLI Top-3: Styling Technology Value What's New For 2022 VW Jetta GLI? So the front grill and rear bumper are the most noticeable areas of the 2022 GLI's refreshment. And both are enhancements that play perfectly to the target market of Jetta driving enthusiasts.  And the cover picture of this article tells the story on the front.  But the back is a bit more subtle as you'll notice below. Sporty rear lower valance Spot the honeycomb lower valance across the rear bumper?  Nice touch! Volkswagen also notes larger exhaust pipes on the '22 GLI but I don't think that's quite as noticeable.  Other exterior changes include new wheel design options and a Black appearance package. Additionally refreshed areas are inside the Jetta GLI.  Including a newly designed steering wheel wrapped in leather.  And red accent stitching. 2022 VW Jetta GLI Autobahn Trim Configuration And MSRP For the 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI it's super simple.  Because the German carmaker gives you only one option. So if you want to go with the enthusiasts Jetta for this model year, then you're getting the Autobahn trim. And the '22 Autobahn GLI trim is well equipped and the starting manufacturers suggested retail price is $31,295. Engine, Transmissions, And MPG Also, when it comes to your engine and transmission options your decision-making is simple. Because the 2022 VW Jetta GLI Autobahn comes with one engine.  However, here in the United States, we have the option of transmissions. First, the engine is a spirited 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder.  It's a 16-valve turbocharged inter-cooled, TSI. And available here in the US for 2022 the GLI Autobahn is available in both automatic and manual transmission!  (Exciting because in VW's European home only manual is available.) Engine However, GLI is a blast to drive especially at its price point. This is due in large part to the well-balanced 228 horsepower engine that puts out 258 pound-feet of torque. Transmission Aside from manual and automatic, there is a slight difference in the transmissions. The automatic, which I test drove and you see pictured throughout this article is a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic.  Notable here is that paddle shifters come with the single-trimmed GLI for 2022.  And this automatic trans/paddle-shifter combo provides ample driving enjoyment. However, if you want to take your driving enthusiasm to the next level, you can opt for manual transmission.  And it's a six-speed.  (My guess is that getting your hands on a manual transmission will probably require a special order.) GLI Fuel Economy Near identical MPG will be delivered for the 2022 VW Jetta GLI regardless of your transmission. If you opt for the manual trans then you'll get an estimated 26 MPG in the city and 37 on the highway. Ever-so-slightly adjusted MPG for the GLI automatic transmission is an estimated 26 in the city and 36 on the highway. The fuel economy for these transmissions is so close that they're estimated to both deliver 30 MPG for combined city/highway averages. 5-seat compact sport sedan What's The 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Look Like? It's a compact sedan.  But the GLI is the enthusiasts/sporty version of the Jetta.  And with this year's refresh the sportiness is taken to the next level! Undeniably European and Volkswagen is how the 2022 Jetta GLI appears on the road. Key exterior dimensions are below. 2022 VW Jetta GLI Exterior Dimensions:

No es diciembre pero si tuviéramos que adivinar qué pedirían los amantes de Volkswagen en su carta a Santa Claus seguramente lloverían las solicitudes para que aparecieran deportivos bajo sus árboles y, sin temor a equivocarnos, serían las solicitudes de los GTI las más numerosas. Sin embargo, desde hace algunos meses las líneas de producción de la planta que tiene la marca alemana en Puebla dejaron de hacer el Golf provocando que su presencia en nuestro país se interrumpiera.

The 2021 Volkswagen Jetta GLI stays true to its roots.  Because going all the way back to 1984 it's been considered a GTI with a trunk.  And that holds true today. But what does that mean?  Specifically, it's sporty, Euro-stylish, handles great, and is fun to drive.  Moreover, it's wildly affordable.  And definitely within the financial reach of every car-buyer. ✅  At Ontario VW, every new Jetta GLI includes 3-years of zero cost maintenance!  Check out your best prices.

2020 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Overview The first VW Jetta GLI rolled off the assembly line in 1984.  And since then, it's been considered Volkswagen's GTI with a trunk. So, quick background.  The VW Golf GTI is the original hot hatch.  A 5-door sports car.  But hatchback. And the Volkswagen Jetta GLI is the Golf GTI's sibling.  But a compact sedan.  Just as sporty looking.  More practical overall. Plus it's a great performer.  Afterall the GLI is the enthusiasts' Jetta.  But, I'd never driven the 2020 VW Jetta GLI.

The 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI really a Golf GTI with a trunk? VW would love to convince you that's true, but Benjamin isn't so sure after a week together with the car. Sami rediscovers the Mini Cooper S magic that he thinks makes the car something special in a very crowded slice of the new car market.

And we answer audience questions about the risk of buying a car without a maintenance history, a replacement for a beloved Ford Flex, if driving habits should change when switching from all-wheel drive gas vehicle to a rear wheel drive electric car, and if driving a manual during a long commute is a good idea.     --------------------------------------- Have a question for our experts?

Trouxemos todos os detalhes sobre o novo Hyundai HB20 direto da Coreia do Sul, inclusive com nossas impressões ao dirigir o hatch com o inédito motor 1.0 turbo de 120 cv com injeção direta. Também aceleramos o Volkswagen Jetta GLI, a versão esportiva com o motor 2.0 turbo de 230 cv usado no Golf GTI. E ainda falamos do Fiat Argo Seleção, as vendas de maio e o fim do namoro entre Fiat-Chrysler e Renault.

É hora de acelerar com a equipe da Autoesporte! O quarto episódio do Autocast traz todos os detalhes de dois grandes lançamentos de junho. O primeiro deles é o inédito Volkswagen Jetta GLI, versão esportiva que tem o mesmo conjunto mecânico e refinamentos do Golf GTI, e chega do México para suceder a antiga versão Highline do sedã, que deixou de existir nesta nova geração — e também deixou saudades nos fãs e antigos donos. No segundo bloco contamos como é a nova geração do Toyota RAV4, que acaba de desembarcar cheia de novidades, com design mais agressivo e com mecânica híbrida. Detalhe: o SUV chega bem mais barato que o seu principal rival, o CR-V. E agora, Honda? No fim do programa tem Spoiler do próximo episódio! Dê o play e ouça o bate-papo com os editores Diogo de Oliveira e Julio Cabral, e com o repórter Raphael Panaro!

Manejamos el Volkswagen Jetta GLI y te contamos qué nos pareció. Hablamos sobre el adiós definitivo al Gran Premio de México a partir de 2020, el cambio en la transmisión del Hyundai Elantra, una nueva edición especial de Smart Fortwo para decir adiós a los motores de combustión, qué sabemos sobre el nuevo Honda Fit y gente que hace cosas indebidas en un Tesla Model X (¿O, mejor dicho, XXX?)

2019 VW Jetta GLI Review The long-anticipated 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI has officially made it to dealers like our partner in the Los Angeles suburb of Ontario, CA - Ontario Volkswagen. And we took it for a test drive to bring you this in-depth 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Review. The GLI is the enthusiasts, sporty model, of the Jetta.  Volkswagen updated its standard line of Jetta's in the previous year.  So, with these 2019 models, Volkswagen marks the 7th generation of GLIs and Jettas.  And actually, in VW-lingo that's 'Mark 7 or Mk7.' 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Top-3 1. Exterior Styling. 2. The Drive. 3. Warranty. My friends at Ontario VW gave me a Jetta GLI for a day recently. Here's my complete report after running around Southern California's Inland Empire and getting a feel for the all-new 2019 VW Jetta GLI! May 7, 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Review The Volkswagen Jetta GLI has historically been compared to its VW hatchback (hot hatch in VW-lingo) sibling the Golf GTI.  Why? Well, they're both Volkswagens and both the sporty/enthusiasts trims of their respective models.  Personally, I like both for different reasons.  I'll contrast the two vehicles, only once, in a moment. 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary Edition driver front With the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI being in its 7th generation that equates to 35-years here in the United States. And those 35-years are honored in one of the trim options for the 2019 VW Jetta GLI.  And, it just so happens that, my test-driver was a 35th Anniversary Edition GLI. Jetta GLI & Golf GTI So here's the cool comparison I'm going to give the 2019 VW Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary Edition and the 2019 Golf GTI Rabbit Edition. Volkswagen's stylish, yet in-the-know and subtle seat tags. '19 VW Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary seat tag Okay, one other comparison, with the GTI and the GLI both being the sporty trims, is the very cool red line across the grills of both vehicles. '19 VW Golf GTI Rabbit Edition seat tag It's in all sorts of pics.  BTW, wondering what GTI and GLI stand for? 2019 VW Jetta GLI badge Those are acronyms for Grand Touring Injection and Grand Luxury Injection. 2019 VW Golf GTI badge So to put the comparisons of the Jetta GLI and the Golf GTI to rest, at least for this post, the Golf is going to be sportier and a hatchback. Whereas the Jetta GLI is a sedan and slightly less aggressive. Trim Options & Pricing The '19 VW Jetta GLI is offered in three different trims. 2019 VW Jetta GLI Trims & MSRPs: S (base model) $25,995 35th Anniversary Edition $26,995 Autobahn $29,195 As always, don't worry about the MSRP - manufacturer's suggested retail price - for two reasons.  First, you need to get your '19 VW Jetta GLI equipped to your specifications. And more importantly, go see my friends at Ontario Volkswagen.  Beyond putting you in the car you want and at the best price, they're not going to play any of the old school (or new school!) games. 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary front The guys and gals at Ontario Volkswagen are my friends and I'm happy to personally introduce you.  Just email me tom [at] idrivesocal [dot] com. Powertrain & MPG Volkswagen's 2019 Jetta GLI comes with the same engine across all three trims. That's a 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that puts out 228-horsepower with 258 lb-ft of torque. 2019 VW Jetta GLI 35 passenger profile The '19 Jetta GLI comes standard with a 6-speed manual transmission.  And I love driving manual on open roads and low-traffic conditions. Of course, here in Southern California, we're hardpressed to find either of those settings.  So the optional 7-speed automatic transmission is probably the way to go. 2019 VW Jetta GLI 35 Ontario VW plate My test driver hand the automatic transmission option and it's Tiptronic shifting offered the fun and control of manual while delivering the convenienc...

Os planos da Ford para o Brasil começam a ganhar forma. Esse foi o tema principal do Motor1Cast desta semana. Fomos até Detroit para acompanhar o lançamento do novo Escape, cotado para ser vendido por aqui, e ainda falamos sobre a venda da fábrica em São Bernardo do Campo para a Caoa. Outro destaque da semana ficou por conta da avaliação, em primeira mão, do Volkswagen Jetta GLI, a versão esportiva do sedã com o motor 2.0 turbo de 230 cv. Ainda falando sobre a VW, andamos no T-Cross 1.0 TSI, com câmbio manual e automático.

2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI The 2018 Jetta GLI is the enthusiast's compact car from Volkswagen. Great European styling with sport acceleration, braking, and handling plus fuel efficiency on top of it all. While the all-new 2019 Jetta's get ready to make their debut, if you're looking for the sport version, this very well may be the car for you. iDriveSoCal's Professor, Clinton Quan, picked one up from our friends at Ontario Volkswagen for a complete analysis – hear it all in this iDSC Podcast. 2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI   ***Transcript*** Recorded in Los Angeles, CA 2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI - Compact Sports Sedan Clinton: This car is for someone who wants a compact car but wants something that's sportier, more fun to drive than your typical compact car. So if you're looking for something that's also fuel-efficient but that's fun to drive on the highway and on mountain roads, and you like going on scenic drives, this is the car for you. "This car is for someone who wants a compact car but wants something that's sportier, more fun to drive than your typical compact car." I think the three-spoke steering wheel is my favorite feature of the car. Love the large, sporty gauges. It handles really well. And the power, 210 horsepower 207 pound-feet of torque. Tom: Welcome to iDriveSoCal, the podcast all about mobility from the automotive capital of the United States--Southern California. I'm Tom Smith. And joining me for another vehicle review is our good friend "the Professor" Clinton Quan. Say hello, Clinton. Clinton: Hi, Tom; it's great to be back for another automotive review.   2018 VW Jetta Courtesy of Ontario VW Tom: Always happy to have you, my friend. Today we are reviewing our first Volkswagen from our newest dealer partner, our good friends out at Ontario Volkswagen. And, Clinton is going to review the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta but the sporty version, which is the GLI. Before I throw it over to you, Clinton, I want to give a shout out to Earl Reed, who is the general manager out at Ontario Volkswagen. Thank you for coming on board. And Randy Halcomb, who is marketing guru, thank you for coming on board. Clinton, tell us about the 2018 VW Jetta GLI! 2018 Volkswagen Jetta Trim Levels & Prices Clinton: I test drove the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI. The Jetta is Volkswagen's compact sedan. The GLI is the sport version of the Jetta. And there are six trims in the Jetta family and three engines. "...features a 2.0-liter engine turbocharge inline 4 and that produces 210 horsepower and 207 pound-feet of torque.  That starts at about $30,000." The base Jetta is the S which starts at about $19,000. Then you have the Wolfsburg edition at about $20,000, the SE at $21,000.  And, all three of those trims feature a 1.4-liter inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine producing 150 horsepower, 184 pound-feet of torque. Then you move up to the SE Sport which is about $23,000 dollars, and then the SEL which starts at about $26,000. Those two trims feature a 1.8-liter inline 4 turbocharged engine producing 170 horsepower. It's also rated at 184 pound-feet of torque. And then you move up to the top of the line trim which is the Jetta GLI, the one I drove, and that features a 2.0-liter engine turbocharge inline 4 and that produces 210 horsepower and 207 pound-feet of torque.  That starts at about $30,000. 6th & 7th Generation VW Jetta - aka Mk6 & Mk7 Tom: Another outstanding feat of granular recollection of detail. Folks, Clinton and I are just sitting here talking. I, of course, have my pen in hand, notepad in front of me. Clinton is just going off the top of his head with these details of the vehicles, so that's why we call him "the Professor." Thank you much for all those details, as always. You drove the GLI, the sporty version. "It's got plenty of power, especially with that 270 pound-feet of torque and 210 horsepower." And to clarify, not long from now,

We're introduced onto the podcast this week by Captain Chad of DoubleClutch.ca Airlines, who has been driving the Volkswagen Jetta GLI. We discuss in detail whether or not the car is worth the price it commands, and we also touch on some other machines. In the garage lately are a BMW M3 Competition Package, Genesis G80 Sport, Range Rover Sport Td6, the Nissan Sentra NISMO, and the Ford Mustang GT Convertible. New unveils we touch on include the BMW 6-series GranTurismo (yes, that's a thing now) and the McLaren 570S Spider.
