Summary
With 97 currently listed for sale near Chicago, IL and an average price of $9,241.00, 24.7% of 2016 Volkswagen Jettas for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta 4.67 / 5 stars.

The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta features a new 1.4-liter turbocharged engine that improves performance and fuel efficiency, accompanied by a user-friendly touchscreen interface and additional safety technology.
Why it stands out
The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta distinguishes itself in the compact sedan segment with a newly introduced 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, replacing the older 2.0-liter that struggled to deliver competitive performance. This upgrade enhances the driving experience significantly, offering a more powerful output of 150 horsepower and greater fuel efficiency, achieving an impressive 28 mpg in the city and 39 on the highway. The spacious interior and class-leading trunk space of 15.7 cubic feet make it an appealing choice for buyers seeking both comfort and practicality. Notably, safety features have been upgraded with options like adaptive cruise control and blind-spot monitoring, further increasing its appeal, especially for families and first-time drivers. While it may lack some high-tech features found in other competitors, the Jetta offers a solid blend of reliability, performance, and value that retains its popularity among compact car enthusiasts.

It’s Comfortable, gas efficient yet turbo powered, modern features, good value with a lower price. I’d say it’s similar to a VW Passat but smaller. But it does not have a sun/moon roof.
