Why it stands out
The 2017 Volkswagen Jetta GLI occupies a unique position within VW's lineup as an accessible sports sedan that marries practicality with performance. It provides the spirited driving experience characteristic of VW's sporty models without the more premium pricing associated with the Golf GTI. With its powerful turbocharged engine, which churns out impressive speed, the GLI stands out as an everyday performer able to cater to both the daily commutes and spirited drives on winding roads.
This model year benefits from the key features of the sixth generation, including a sporty suspension, aggressive styling elements, and a well-equipped interior that balances comfort with performance. The GLI remains engaging to drive thanks to its sharp handling, making it a compelling choice for buyers looking for a practical sedan that does not compromise on fun. Furthermore, with many Jetta GLIs equipped with advanced driver assistance features and technology, it brings modern safety and convenience to the forefront, appealing to a broad range of consumers—from driving enthusiasts to families.

This car is a excellent commuter car with power to get you up and going in highway traffic to merge confidently and quickly, if necessary. The leather seats are comfortable on long drives (after my purchase I had to drive 2+ hours to get home) and there is plenty of rear seat room for adults of all sizes and car seats.
