In these turns, it prevents the front inside wheel from spinning, pulls the car through corners, and contributes to pleasantly neutral handling. This car has the standard dampers, which are tuned for a firmer ride that is reminiscent of the GTI. They help the driver feel the road better, but they may make the ride too stiff for some. What I thought was going to be a foggy drive ruined by dawdling Harley riders turns out to be a clear shot without another vehicle in sight for the whole 11 miles. That puts the vented 13.4-inch front brakes to the test. They heat up and I can smell them, but they never fade. Highway 129 isn鈥檛 the only good road around these parts. U.S. Highway 143 through the Joyce Kilmer National Forest is another fun drive, and for this one a 35th Anniversary GLI with a manual transmission and adaptive dampers is calling my name.
This road isn鈥檛 as smooth as the Dragon, and Sport mode shows that the adjustable dampers become firmer in the Sport setting than the base suspension. That leads to some skidding over patched pavement, but switching to Normal mode creates a smoother ride that keeps the tires on the pavement and enhances grip. I play with the drive mode controller鈥檚 Custom setting and choose Normal for the dampers, engine sound, and climate control, and Sport for the steering, differential, and engine/transmission. That setup gives me a car with a smooth but still sporty ride and a relaxed engine note but an aggressive throttle. I also appreciate the slick shifter in this car. It offers short, positive throws that slide dutifully into gear, and a natural clutch take-up. It can be hard to get underway on an incline, though. It requires goosing the throttle to get the revs up to avoid stalling the engine.
The rest of the GLI is either standard Jetta or cosmetic. The exterior changes add an element of sportiness to a car that is otherwise rather vanilla. Up front, it has a honeycomb grille with a red stripe inspired by the GTI. The front and rear bumpers attempt a meaner grin, side skirts help lower the car further, beyond its 0.6-inch drop compared to the standard Jetta. Red brake calipers sit behind the 18-inch wheels for a final sporty touch. Inside, the GLI gets red accents and a smattering of comfort features. VW offers base S, 35th Anniversary, and Autobahn models. All have heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a center touchscreen 6.5 inches across, or bigger. All GLIs also come with forward-collision warnings with automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitors, and rear cross-traffic alerts. 1,000 more, though, because its adjustable dampers provide a better ride. Oddly, VW doesn鈥檛 offer navigation in any model, though Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibilty can handle that duty. The VW Golf GTI is one of my favorite cars because it鈥檚 fun to drive, has a practical hatchback body style, and comes at reasonable prices. The 2019 Jetta GLI channels that car better than ever, mostly because parts from the GTI lend a similar character to this sedan. It may not have a rear hatch, but the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI has a large trunk, a useful rear seat, and sporty moves inspired by its beloved cousin. I鈥檓 glad there are still cars like the Jetta GLI despite buyers鈥?preferences for SUVs. Sometimes the fog lifts and the road opens up before you, and that鈥檚 where a sport sedan like the Jetta GLI makes all the difference.
