Volkswagen Jetta
The Jetta gets another update for 2025 including a new front fascia and new taillights that are connected for a wider appearance. Inside, the dashboard has been redesigned, too. The German compact sedan remains one of the best in terms of driving dynamics thanks to its superior comfort and efficient powertrains. The standard 1.5-litre turbo engine produces 158 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque. Of course, the Jetta GLI is back (228 hp, 258 lb-ft) and is still available with a manual gearbox.
