The new Volkswagen Jetta is an entirely new vehicle design. The emergence of fully galvanized body shows it emphatically. Never before has a VW Jetta that great, this sports, this independently. Just how independent? One sign is that the Volkswagen Jetta is no longer sharing the components of the body with the world’s best-selling technically related, the Golf. Instead, the new Jetta impresses as a separate vehicle as the Tiguan and Passat CC. And it is so safe, the previous model was already named “Top Safety Pick” in IIHS crash tests by the U.S. organization. Along with the maximum occupant safety accident, the car has more advanced pedestrian safety. With the Jetta, Volkswagen was once again introduced totally new quality standards for a vehicle segment.
Exterior styling and dimensions
The new model is 182.7 inches (4.63 meters) long, 57.1 inches (1.45 meters) tall and 70.1 cm (1.78 m) (European version length: 4.64 meters ) wide. This makes Volkswagen 3.15 inches (8 cm) larger than the previous model. The interaction of the outer dimensions produces a powerful reason proportions. In parallel, the new Volkswagen ‘design DNA’ sharpens your style. This resulted in precise lines and clear surfaces athletically muscular sedan that give an image of timeless elegance and dynamic style. The result: the appearance of the Volkswagen Jetta makes style statement as a ruling that Volkswagen is positioned almost in a higher class of vehicle.
Front-end: Here is the slope coupe-like windshield and the consistent use of horizontal lines that define the project. The radiator grille in high-gloss black as a stylistic unity, together with the trapezoidal headlamps. The dual reflector headlights are cut by a blade called masking in a larger area with the lights low beam and main and a lower narrow part with daytime running lights and indicator lights. The blades of chrome mask guide the horizontal lines of the right front-end for the headlights. The result: the Volkswagen Jetta has a more broad and dynamic visuals. In the area of low beam, H7 Longlife new discharge lamps, halogen lamps are used which have a shelf life much longer. Parking and daytime running lights – usually subjected to more serious charges – are also designed with technology or Longlife Super Longlife. Fine adjustment mounting height and size of the spotlight low lighting produces very good and wide runway, with emphasis on the driver’s side.
Just below the grille and headlight unit of the clean surface is sculpted bumper completely painted. A lower section, another entry of cooling air and a front spoiler-shaped tray (in the style of “splitters” used in car racing) give the car a sporty trim. The upper front part of the transition displays a powerful engine cover, V-shaped wings to the sides, the shoulder section here reflects a dynamic style and muscular.
Lateral Profile: In profile, the lounge side, the design features that mark all new Volkswagens merge yet another interpretation of the “design DNA” by renowned Italian chef of Volkswagen Group Design (Walter de Silva) and Chief German design for the Volkswagen brand (Klaus Bischoff). line ‘hurricane’ or characteristic of the shoulder and arches powerfully emphasized a wheel wells: The best examples of this. Formally, they cross the main supermarkets harmonized volumes, conveying a strong and dynamic image.
Thanks to the wide track dimensions (1,535 mm front, 1,532 mm rear), the wheel arches also need a way to transition – as if carved by a knife – to accommodate the wheels of up to 18 inches in size. Meanwhile, the style of the door mirrors with integrated indicator lights her mimic those of larger Passat CC. Another design feature is the typical line of work in the area of C-pillars. Here, the trailing edge of the door following a straight line from the side sill diagonal triangle back to the window, stylistically, this increases the door and gives the vehicle an even bigger, wider and looks elegant.
rear section: Harmonized surfaces and shoulders also dominate the sport look at the back of the VW Jetta. A very wide window coupe rear and offers an excellent view to the rear of the hall, while simultaneously emphasizing its dynamic lines. His interaction with the C-pillars, as impressive as they are stylish, and clearly carved shoulder section, produces a design that is extremely dominant, creating a strong presence.
Powerfully illuminating and visually highlighted: the rear lights. They are divided into two sections, which extends from the wing on the trunk lid and displaying an unmistakable look both day and night. The tailgate itself has an aerodynamic advantage of optimized flight, which minimizes air turbulence and increases the downforce of the car for the road. The vertical surface of the tailgate with its integrated VW logo and segmented taillights shows off a light – a style tool that further emphasizes the sporty sedan’s. To access the boot 510 liters, the tailgate can be opened by remote control to unlock. Perfection in the Details: A special patented reflector geometry illuminates the entire plate and lower boot area together.
The new Jetta is equipped with six airbags as standard (driver and front passenger airbags, front side airbags and side curtain airbags in the front and rear). Customers can add optional rear side airbags for this package. To ensure that the airbags deploy in their correct positions faster than ever, the new Volkswagen Jetta has a special system of sensors to detect the intensity of the crash and igniting the airbags. Electronics, located centrally in the passenger compartment, evaluates low frequency “soft” signs of slowing. In addition, specially tuned accelerometers measure the frequency components in the mid range or “audible”. These signal components are generated waves of the car body when the load-bearing structures on the front of the car deform very quickly. They are spread throughout the structure of the vehicle at high speed and accurate information about the severity of the accident are available very quickly.
By intelligently interrelating the components of signal “palpable” and “sound”, the system gets an airbag sensor faster and simultaneously, more reliable characterization of the accident. This makes it possible to tailor the performance deployment of the airbags and pretensioners on the accident situation in order to provide optimum protection for passengers. In Germany, Volkswagen sensor system was awarded the Bavarian Innovation Award.
High-strength steel, hardened form are also used in the new VW Jetta. These special steels help to create an extremely safe vehicle structure, preventing weight gain spiral. The impact energy is routed through load paths defined according to the type of accident, to absorb some of the energy that would otherwise impact on the occupants of the car.
Interior
Like its exterior styling, high quality printing done by the interior bridges the gap to the next higher class, significantly increasing the Volkswagen Jetta lead over the competition. Inside, the new Jetta offers an unparalleled perfection in the details and – as a common conceptual thread – self-explanatory controls.
Cockpit ergonomics
A silver framed round instruments designed in the style of the Passat CC is positioned for optimal visualization, the multifunction display (trip computer) is located between them. The new wheel design, three-spoke steering (with optional multifunction buttons) visually impressive and touching. The right hand rests on ergonomic grip gears. In front of the gear lever controls are redesigned and intuitive climate control (standard equipment of the S line package S1-US, as well as the trend line in Germany) and other convenience features, such as banks optional heated, as well as radio and radio navigation systems. This section of the island is slightly tilted towards the driver of an ideal cockpit layout that focuses on the needs of the driver. Also for providing the ideal indoor comfort is the air conditioning system, which is the default version of S2 equipment in the U.S. and Comfortline in Germany.
The parking brake lever has been repositioned as well, freeing up more space on the right side, which is now used for larger cup holders. Numerous storage options – including a center armrest option-dependent, with storage box and support of special glasses – everything perfect car everyday practical use.
