Miles Overview
The 2012 Jetta is Volkswagen's compact sedan and wagon, aimed at buyers who want a bit more German character than the typical Corolla or Civic. It's a comfortable, composed cruiser that feels stable at highway speeds, with a ride that's smooth enough for daily commutes. Inside, the cabin is roomy for the class, with a clean dash and available leather that gives it a more upscale feel than its price suggests. Some owners have dealt with electrical gremlins and pricey repairs, so it's worth budgeting for the occasional German-brand hiccup. The GLI swaps the SEL's luxury touches for a sharper suspension, a sportier look, and a six-speed manual standard. The 2.0L I4 makes 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque, good for 27 mpg combined in the automatic. The optional GLI Autobahn adds a sunroof and touchscreen navigation for those wanting a bit more comfort.
