The sixth-generation VW Jetta used the A5 platform of the previous generation. However, enhancements gave it a longer wheelbase and made it larger than the previous iteration. For this generation, Volkswagen dropped the wagon and took away some of the features that made the sedan a premium compact car. Among other cost-cutting downgrades, the sixth-generation models got lower-quality trim material in their interiors and lost the multi-link suspension introduced in the previous generation. Leather was no longer available; the only optional seating upholstery was leatherette. Only higher trims鈥攕uch as the SEL Premium鈥攔etained multi-link suspension. A GLI trim level had featured fully independent suspension and red interior stitching.
The Sport trim featured a sport suspension, two-tone heatable seats, and a rear spoiler. The base S model came with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that produced 115 horsepower. Engine options for other versions included a 2.5-liter five-cylinder rated 170 horsepower and a 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine rated 140 horsepower. Starting 2013, a Turbo Hybrid that paired a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine with a 27-horsepower electric motor for a combined rating of 170 horsepower and 184 foot-pounds of torque. In 2016, a standard 1.4-liter turbocharged engine rated 148 horsepower replaced the Hybrid model. Sixth-generation models were paired with a five- or six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic transmission. The redesigned fifth-generation Jetta featured sleeker styling, part of which was a new chrome front grille. Production used a new A5 platform that made it 6.7 inches longer and 1.2 inches wider than the previous generation. Interior room increased by four cubic feet and rear legroom grew by 2.6 inches.
When it debuted at the 2005 Los Angeles Auto Show, the Jetta was available as a four-door sedan or five-door wagon. Volkswagen unveiled the Jetta SportWagen, a variant of the VW Golf, at the 2007 New York International Auto Show. The SportWagen had a cargo capacity of up to 66.9 cubic feet with the rear seats down (up from the 16 cubic feet of the Jetta sedan) and featured an optional panoramic sunroof. Other innovations that fifth-generation models came with included dual-zone automatic climate control and power steering. Multi-link independent rear suspension, which improved handling and ride quality, was standard for the GLI performance model and optional in other models. A 2.5-liter, inline five-cylinder engine was standard while a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine came on the 2.0T and the GLI models. The diesel engine of the previous generation was still available: a 1.9-liter engine that made 100 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque.
