Used 2017 Volkswagen Jetta for Sale near Washington, DC

For the last year of its sixth generation, Volkswagen slims the Jetta's trims, expands available safety systems, and makes a reversing camera standard.

While Europe got a new Jetta in 2015, the U.S. has seen the same old model since 2011. That’s a long time for a single generation of vehicle, and Volkswagen has dealt with its own internal issues during that time. For 2018, the Jetta gets a break as it prepares for the debut of its seventh generation in 2019, but rather than letting the sixth fade into obscurity, VW has presented a mild shakeup in 2017 in the form of a reduction of trim levels, a redistribution of standard and optional safety features, and the inclusion of a standard reversing camera on all trims.
