The 2010 Volkswagen Jetta has been announced and it will be reality by the end of this year. It will be another compact sedan model that will look bolder, bigger and better than the earlier generation models. The new Jetta comes with more power, thanks to the 2.5 liter five-cylinder engine that can produce 150 hp. 2010 Jetta will be produced mainly for the US market, though this time VW may try to even target the booming Asian market too. The vehicle also offers 1.9 liter TDI diesel engine with direct fuel injection mechanism. The model is also offered with better fuel efficiency and lower emissions. The new Jetta model comes in three variants and two engines. The vehicle is a competitor to the Honda Civic. The vehicle achieves maximum speed of 187 kilo meters per hour. It comes in two different versions like the Comfortline and Trendline. The Jetta Trendline comes is offered with the five-speed manual transmission, whereas the Comfortline model comes with the 6-speed automatic transmission. The model can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilo meters per hour in a time span of just 12.2 seconds, while with the diesel engine the same speed can be achieved in a time span of just 11.8 seconds. The other features of the next generation Jetta include two zone climate controls, cup holders, rain sensors and integrated cargo space. The other safety features in the vehicle include electronic stability system with steering wheel and anti lock braking system. The model comes with built-in anti theft system. It has elegant chrome trim and the sporty radiator grille on the side windows.
Summer rubber is a no-cost option and something I鈥檇 recommend. The non-DCC car rolls more, as well, with the standard setup causing the GLI to feel heavier and less agile. The GLI with DCC is more engaging and enjoyable to drive hard. The GLI trim adds a good amount of stuff to the standard Jetta, of course. The seats and upholstery are GLI-specific items, and while these so-called Sport Comfort chairs are comfortable and supportive, they鈥檙e not nearly as good as what you鈥檒l find in the GTI. The two cars do share flat-bottomed steering wheels, though, and similar exterior enhancements, with larger 18-inch wheels on lower-profile tires, as well as red exterior accents, and a model-specific grille. The impact on the rather anonymous-looking Jetta is pleasant, but neither as exciting nor as attractive as I鈥檇 like. What I do like is stuff that鈥檚 already present on the standard Jetta. 27,795 for the automatic). 29,195 that has the most goodies. Grab this trim for VW鈥檚 Digital Cockpit (a 10.3-inch, reconfigurable instrument cluster), ventilated front seats, and a 400-watt Beats audio system. You won鈥檛 find any of that gear in the GTI. Reason and rationale rarely enter into the equation when buying a performance vehicle, but that鈥檚 exactly what we suggest if you鈥檙e shopping for a GTI. Listen to that little voice in your head telling you the Jetta GLI is the better deal - it is. It鈥檚 a vehicle that does almost everything the GTI can, but for less money, with better equipment, an inconspicuous shape, and a rarer badge.
There are several things that come to mind when a person thinks of "high performance," including high performance tires, turbocharged engines and enhanced exhaust system. You may be curious as to what types of high performance product you can get from this specialty firm. 1: ECU Recalibration: The main thing many people think of when they think of high performance is cars with a turbocharged engine. Two of the cars that qualify for this engine upgrade by APR is the Jetta and the Golf, but be assured that control and safety are not sacrificed. Actually, the ECU engine upgrade recalibrates the control strategy of the engine, which increases pressure, air fuel ratios and enhances timing to give you extra power. The Golf and or the Jetta with this upgrade will boost their horsepower to 130 and the torque to 176 lbs. Other VW models can also get some engine upgrades through APR also.
2: RSC Exhaust: Another high performance product offered by APR is the "Reflective Sound Cancellation," or RSC exhaust. Most people will never associate the exhaust system as a high performance product for vehicles, but this system will help vehicle such as the Jetta to perform even more efficiently as well as add to its creature comforts. To be specific, this produce maximizes the exhaust gas flow and stops noise in the cabin of the vehicle. Fact is that APR says that every muffler is made to stop any sounds, which will also improve the performance of the engine. 3: Anti-Sway Suspension Bars: Obviously, great suspension goes a long way. Another APR high performance product offered on the CC model are the anti-sway bars that will reduce the car's body roll while increasing the slip angle. Although this product was first created for those who race, many people will not do this on their VW CC. These bars will both reduce the vehicles weight and increase the rigidity, to give the occupants a safer and lighter vehicle. The high performance products mentioned above are only a few of the enhancements you can get from APR that can maximize your VW or SUV's performance. If you want more information about VW cars and or how you can get even more bang for your buck, get in touch with your closest VW dealer right away.
For one car maker the sky鈥檚 the limit when it comes to the sunroof - with a 15.2 square feet glass panel on top of the vehicle. Lincoln鈥檚 new MKZ features a huge plate that moves backwards at the touch of a button, exposing front and back seat passengers to the elements. By staying attached to the car it takes just 10 seconds to achieve much the same effect as a convertible - with hardly any effort. Here comes the sunroof: The Lincoln MKZ features an all-glass top with the 'Panoramic Retractable Roof'. The feature on the MKZ is the latest salvo in a 鈥榮unroof war鈥?between car manufacturers. Volkswagen installed a 鈥榩anoramic鈥?sunroof on its 2009 Jetta SportWagon, and it was such a hit it has introduced it to other models. Land Rover has a 鈥榝ull-size glass panoramic roof鈥?in its Evoque range, Mini has installed a two-pane sunroof in some of its models, and the Infiniti JX Crossover will feature a retractable sunroof when it is released next year.
