Exterior
I Dont understand why people compare it with vento may be because they are keeping themselves satifisfied comparing it to jetta. Best look of jetta comes from rear view even any luxary car audi,bmw,jaguar ..u name it cant beat that look. Front looks like mini passat.silver is their trade mark color i own a silver it looks really really great when i see my car.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Interior is very very spacious for tall people, front seats are adjustable u can increase the height of seats , only thing is back middle seat can be good for kids i dont think its minus for car ..even for big people sitting in back middle seat they wont feel uncomfortable because of the suspension technology this car offers.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Engine performance is great car wont shake even when ur on 170 kmph speed and ur in full control of the car. fuel economy trust me u will blindly get 16 kmpl minimum at any driving conditions on highway even on top speeds and in city u will get minimum 12 kmpl even in worst traffic which is great for automatic transmission car.
gearbox is simply awesome it has sport mode which can given u extra push.
Ride Quality & Handling
You will be amazed with the ride quality u get with this car.. i traval a lot in long trips and never got tired in this car i believe may be becoz of its suspension.
Final Words
i was worried abt huge speed breakers near my house i travalled in hyundai elantra and even skoda laura on the same road and experienced car hitting those speed breakers but when i got on the same with jetta it did not touch at all and i was very impressed with the suspension. my second worry was about milege jetta has impressed me with its great milege combined with power and stability.my third thought was am i buying car that looks like vento and when ever i see jetta i keep thinking how did i compare it with vento which is nowhere in looks near to jetta except they use same logo.
Areas of improvement
adding key less button start ,rear view reverse camera and yes improvement in audio system is needed. if they can add these 3 features it will be even more fun.

Exterior
Good.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Good Space. Well designed interiors. But the inner panels of all Doors are badly supported and "sound" loosely fitted.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Not as good as was expected from a car which boasts of having an Audi engine.
Ride Quality & Handling
OK, could be better.
Final Words
Very Poosr Service. Absolutely below standard. No response.
Areas of improvement
Headlioghts are very weak their Power needs to be improved. Very difficult on highways during night driving. Audio System is below par, if compared to other cars in it's range. Service and Response to Service needs to brought up to at least some minimum acceptable Standard. The least Service Centre can do is listen to what we (as customers & actual users) have to say. These cars are not exactly cheap. I bought this car bcause I am aware of how good German Engineered Cars are !! I own another one so can compare the two cars, as an actual user. I dread to call or send the car to the Service Centre, since I am not sure of the level of Service.
Good interior Space.Weak Headlights. Below par sound system.

1. Car is not started for approx 5 times within in a year and giving it for service for the same complaint nothing is resolved. Last week my family went to trip and after 6 hours we try to start the car but not turned on station key not in control. We waited for 6 hours to start but not happened at last we called to toll free number and asked for assiantance they told they are sending the road side assianctance after 12 hours and I stayed back to handover key to them which is worst day in my life. My family suffered a lot on this. So I am praying all not to buy this worst car.
2. We ride this car for 30k kms and 2 tyres are burst and one alloy wheel is broken. This alloy is broken after drving aroound 3000 kms
Last Wrod : Don't buy this car.

Exterior Very good styling.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good quality interier, ac shold have been climatric this is a major draw back at this price and day time light sholud be led, Back seat only for two peolpe which is common on all EU cars.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very good power, no tubo lag like cruze, manul model gives arround 14 to 15 overall millage which is quite good for a car with powerfull engine and 1.5T weight.
Ride Quality & Handling Solid german build, I am owning a hoda cityzx also, could feel the massive difference while driving both cars, specially on bad roads.Iamusing this car for past 9 months (8000km) and never felt any complaint about the car.
Final Words My final suggetion is to buy automatic instead of buying highline manual which i done a mistake. I am writting this review only beacuse some one written very bad about the car saying things which is ub beliveable for any cars, feels he belongs to some other manufactures executive or never driven this car.
Areas of improvement AC should be climatic and day time lights should be LED.

Exterior Not at all appealing for this price bracket not he colours are also not attractive.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) There is no roominess e you cannot even compare with optra which is half is price.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox This could be commented only if long droven but hope they do better and we already have the skoda here the same engine and mileage.
Ride Quality & Handling This also shoud be at par with this segment.
Final Words If they could have given a product of D segment with features not offered by others like design, power, seats, interiors and price competitiveness is the most important fact.
Areas of improvement Wrong pricing so heavy discounts is one and only of improvement all others are not possible, or complete elimination of this model and reintroduce a new one with proper public research ( true buyers). Where is the justification even for the passat the looks are the same like the vento no will think of owning one. I am in fact looking forward to buy a car in this bracket and all the features intimidating me.
They need to clearly differentiate the looks first and the interiors should be spacious to feel . Seating comfort is must who wants to drive in our cities so the rear seats need to be comfortable.
The brand image and reliability legacy , good performance and fuel economy .The design is not appealing , no roominess inside , ground clearance , no comfortable seat, priceyExterior/Styles

I booked Jetta automatic 23 lacs on road with Abraham motors Anna nager chennai on 10th december 2012. I was promised that I will be given delivery on 25 th march.After that every day i use to look out for jetta cars on the road.Unfortunately in the past 3 months I could see only one jetta car.I was worried that I have taken a wrong decision.On 10th March 2013 I enquired about the delivery Abraham motors from anna nager chennai informed that I will get the car only by May 2013. No fool in this world will wait for 6 months for 23lacs worth car.But it was blessing in disguise that my deleivery got delayed and now I bought Scoda Rapid just for 50% of jetta's price. My conclusion is VV jetta is not meant for indian market and it is not at all value for money.More over I could understand the after sales service before sales itself. If you cannot give the delivery till may end why dont VV discontinue this model.Even any one wants to but vento I strognly suggest to buy Rapid which is more cute and soda after sales is much better than VV.

Exterior Classy looking saloon. Specially rare makes it look large and exclusive...
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Great comfort and stability at high speed, Manual AC is good enough and not a deal breaker.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox This is where my area of interest comes. 140 PS power with fuel economy of over 17kmpl is just amazing. Engine, once warmed up, goes like a rocket and i have even reached 20-100 in 2nd gear itself... its a free revving engine. Power delivery is linear with almost no turbo lag if u r driving in proper gear... inside city one can cruise from 30 to 100, so rides like automatic only. Gear shifting is smooth considering it as a diesel engine.
Ride Quality & Handling Gives a planted ride and the confidence while drive is worth every extra penny you spend on jetta.
Final Words If you are planning to buy a saloon in range of 12-15 lacs, ofcourse jetta is not in budget, but bargain hard with dealer, wait for few months if required, but buy jetta only... i got mine in 15+ lacs on road.... however i bought nov 2012 model in feb 2013 so the discounts... but such period comes every year.. spending 11 lacs on vento or verna, 13 on corrola or 15 on elantra or duster or laura or XUV 500 for that matter is not worth than spending 15 on jetta.... You always have confidence of power in your right foot, mileage and coolness of german safety standards, (trust me when they say ABS and ESP, it is of the top performing ones). If you are an enthusiast driver and just need music system, AC with tons of safety features, then dnt ever look for anything else. yes, exterior looks does matter unless you dont like understated, never aging looks of jetta. Think of the exclusivity you are going to get with jetta. 300 odd jettas are sold every month in india compared to 1000s of verna, corrolla and elantra.

Exterior Lookswise this car gives a mature and strong style statement ideally a rich person second car.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Beige interior and wooden finish gives elite touch.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is good.
Ride Quality & Handling I drove around 15000 km in one year, initially car did wonderful driving, however near 12000 km mileage their started noise in wheels, I got it checked from service centre of M/s Atrica Automobiles Pvt Ltd Noida, they replied and shifted this issue to tyres and fixed our responsibility that you may have driven this car with low tyre pressure and due to this tyres have got some issue. and their in no fault of Volkswagen.
I got stunned with this onus shifting response, it was hardly one year that I bought this car and this is my 8th car and it was hardly to convince myself that I dont know how to mantain tyre pressures or else. Finally I requested since according to them it was issue of tyres. kindly get it properly checked from goodyear. Till date no response. I am on duty to call them.
Final Words Volkswagen produces Good Car with cheapest service quality. Professional at time of sales. But worst service centres that too shared with renault in noida.
I understand it was my mistake that I bought car from self boasting arrogant company....they have no focus on after sales . no value for customer I would have preferred Toyota or elantra which is much better that Volkswagen.
Areas of improvement Learn from Honda, Maruti , Toyota. See the quality of service they provide.

Very barebone disel version ,very bsaic features in base model,dont expect that in 14.12 lac car.
Also very Ventoish looks. Looks good from behind but from the front its hard to distinguish it from a vento.Terrible ground clearance at 139 mm... lowest in segment! would hit every speedbreaker on indian roads.
Noisy diesel engine. Manual AC? Basic safety features in base model, no traction control, rcd030-weak music system, no leather upholsery. The spare wheel is a steel one not alloy in a 15 lac car! Terrible! Ground clearance of 139 mm??No way it can work on indian roads!!!
Jetta Highline is good but the basic issue of ground clearance still remains.And no start-stop button or smart card access like Cruze and Fluence.A must have feature for latest high-end cars. Rear Seat not that comfortable ,could be better. Dont think it will work in india... bette options available like Altis, Cruze and Fluence diesel more feature loaded,lesser price and more roomier and better after sales service record globally.
