Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen

Available as a sedan or roomy wagon and offering multiple powertrain choices that include a diesel and gas-electric hybrid, the 2014 Volkswagen Jetta offers something for just about everyone. The Jetta has its work cut out battling popular rivals like the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla and Ford Focus, but the VW stands out with European flair.

New Features and Revisions

In addition to swapping the 5-cylinder engine for a turbocharged-4 in most sedan models, Volkswagen has installed multilink rear suspension in all 2014 Jettas and introduced its smartphone-enabled Car-Net communications service. Jetta SportWagen models again carry over unchanged except for new LED license-place lighting, and diesel (TDI) models gain a rearview camera as standard.
