Volkswagen Jetta
With the City having disappeared, the new Jetta has become Volkswagen’s entry-level car. The proof is that the high-end Highline sells for the same price as the Jetta GLS did 10 years ago. The three engine possibilities include a 115-hp 2.0-litre four-cylinder, a 170-hp 2.5-litre five-cylinder, and a clean turbodiesel engine. The Jetta offers better value for the money than ever and it is one of the most spacious compact sedans on the market.
