Carbon82 Moderator August 8, 2017 Share August 8, 2017 Following Skoda with it new Octavia, the new Jetta seems to be much larger than the existing model, and likely to hit close to 4.7m in length. Design wise, I am seeing hints of Audi (headlight), Honda (grille) Ford (C pillar) and Hyundai (taillight). Hopefully the car look better in metal, just like the current B8 Passat. Photos were rumored to be taken at VW Mexico manufacturing facilities. In case you still don't believe this is the new Jetta, but some other VW model for Brazil or China, here are some spy shots of the new Jetta taken earlier. ↡ Advertisement 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

7hm Turbocharged August 8, 2017 Share August 8, 2017 Ooh, one piece rear windows. Overall the car looks nice, but I swear I am seeing the Megane in that front end. Almost 4.7m? That's really close to the Passat's size!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MQX87511 5th Gear August 9, 2017 Share August 9, 2017 body looks rather sporty and low. hope an improved DSG is in there if it changes DSG to CVT, I will consider new Jetta. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drainwater 1st Gear August 9, 2017 Share August 9, 2017 if it changes DSG to CVT, I will consider new Jetta. Agreed. The Jetta doesn't need to have really fast changing gears. Going to CVT will definitely be a winner over the mid size sedan market. It is actually a very good bargain for its features in it class. Up-graders from the traditional Asia makes will sure consider Jetta when going into Conti makes. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best if using Subaru CVT since it's proven on their forester Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
