New Volkswagen Jetta for Sale near Merced, CA
If you're concerned about new car prices, take a close look at the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta.
At a base price under $23,500, the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta offers plenty of passenger space, a large trunk, and a fuel-efficient engine with plenty of zip. This year, Volkswagen tweaks this compact sedan’s styling, improves the interior, upgrades the handling, and adds more standard technology. Driving enthusiasts will appreciate the affordable Sport trim and the continued existence of the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, which still offers a manual transmission. This review is based on our experience with the Jetta SEL, which looks and feels more upscale than its price.
Verdict: While the changes to the 2025 VW Jetta are appealing, some are missteps, such as the touch-sensing climate control system interface. Also, the Jetta isn’t a leader in its segment regarding safety ratings. Nevertheless, its sensible German design and engineering shine through, giving it a distinctive driving experience unlike other compact cars.

What people say
The car features are really good. And it’s worth it for the deal
Coming from an older Jetta, this car has been such a dream. It almost never jerks, and the assist systems are gentle yet effective. The cars lane keep assist, while sometimes easily fooled, is significantly less jerky than the 2020 Pilot in the family. The only difficults Ive witnessed is its occasionally slow, but still quite smooth starts, however, this car isnt an enthusiast car, and shouldnt be treated as such. I preferred its ride to the 2024 Civic, and Impreza we tried before purchasing.
The Jetta Sport is a fine example of German engineering providing superior performance over other mid-size sport sedans. Acceleration, handling, economy and build quality all excellent.
The value of the car is amazing, more then I expected.
The standard features of the car are enough for the average commuter. The car has tremendous value. I would compare it to the other models in its class.
