If you’re looking for a compact vehicle, then the 2021 VW Jetta is a great car to consider. It’s small on the outside, yet it’s roomy and luxurious on the inside. This Volkswagen handles excellently, and it’s more powerful than its small size suggests. The GLI version slightly sportier than the regular Jetta, so it suits someone who values performance and sharp but silky handling.
4 Impressive Features of the 2021 VW Jetta GLI
1. Volkswagen Car-Net
This feature lets you access your vehicle remotely through your smartphone. You can stop and start and stop the car, and you can lock the doors, honk, and flash the lights too. Many competitor vehicles have a “remote start” option, but they don’t have a way to remotely activate the horn or the lights. You can also view a few stats on your phone, such as mileage and estimated miles remaining. Again, many competitors lack this feature.
There are alert features, too. The app will tell you if someone else is driving your vehicle, and you can set boundaries for them via your phone. You can set a speed limit, set a curfew, and get valet alerts. Further features include the safety suite, which provides anti-theft alerts, crash notifications, roadside call assist, and more. There are many more features included with Car-Net, too, but the ones we’ve mentioned are some of the most useful.
2. A Comfortable Ride
The Jetta GLI has a smoother ride than most competitors, and that smooth ride is paired with excellent handling. The handling is so precise that every turn feels comfortably sharp, but driving along a straight or curved road is impeccably smooth. The smoothness is so prominent that it’s almost silky, yet the drive can feel very athletic if you want it to. It’s a highly adaptable and maneuverable vehicle.
3. Quick Acceleration
The Jetta GLI can reach 60 miles per hour in only 5.9 seconds. Many of its strongest competitors can’t match that swiftness. You’ll really stand out from the crowd, and all drivers will notice your lively your vehicle is. Its standard engine is turbocharged, and it has 260 lb-ft of torque and 228 horsepower. Therefore, it’s not shocking that this vehicle can accelerate so rapidly.
If you like driving at speed, then this is definitely a vehicle to consider. It’s great for cruising down the highway, and you’re sure to turn a few heads whenever you overtake someone.
4. Great for Growing Families
The GTI is a fantastic vehicle for young families, as kids and adults can easily find comfort in the seats. It’s roomy, so there’s enough space for kids to wriggle around in their seats. However, it’s also wonderful for families with kids who are quickly blossoming into tall teenagers. There’s lots of legroom in the front and back, so even the tallest of teens won’t have trouble getting comfortable on long journeys.
