Volkswagen has always closely associated the Jetta GLI sedan with the Golf GTI hot hatch, but the supposed siblings were most recently more like distant cousins, as the outgoing sixth-generation Jetta used completely different underpinnings than the MQB-based seventh-generation GTI. Now that the new 2019 Jetta has migrated to MQB, its GLI variant can once again legitimately claim to be a GTI with a trunk, and it has the standard and optional performance extras to back up that assertion. For starters, the GLI has the same turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four as the GTI, with the same 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque ratings鈥攊ncreases of 18 horsepower and 41 lb-ft over the last GLI. It mates with a six-speed manual or an optional seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, with automatic cars adding stop-start functionality. An electronically controlled limited-slip differential is standard, and adaptive dampers are optional. The braking system is shared with the GTI, with 13.4-inch front rotors. There are plenty of visual links between the GLI and GTI, too, as has long been the case.
With a suspension setup that's lowered 0.6 inch over the standard Jetta, the GLI looks leaner and meaner than that mainstream sedan, and it has a black grille with red accent lines to mirror the GTI. Eighteen-inch wheels are standard, and red brake calipers peek out from underneath them. The front and rear bumpers look more aggressive, and dual exhaust tips round out the look. Inside, the black-and-red theme continues with red accent stitching for the black seats. A fair amount of stuff comes standard, including dual-zone automatic climate control, blind-spot monitoring, keyless entry and push-button start, and LED headlights and taillights. A panoramic sunroof, heated and cooled front seats, and a digital gauge cluster are optional. A 35th Anniversary Edition will be part of the lineup to start; it has black wheels with a red stripe, a black roof, black mirror caps, and special badging and comes standard with the aforementioned adaptive dampers. 20,000 range when it goes on sale this spring.
