If Volkswagen wants to keep its Jetta competitive, it is high time for the carmaker to revamp it. The current generation of the Jetta was launched in 2011 and since then, the vehicle has been around pretty much unchanged. The vehicle received insignificant update in 2014 but apart from the engine and some other updates to the running gear, the rest was the same. To the delight of many customers and fans, it seems that Volkswagen intends to bring many novelties for the 2017 model year, and among them is a revamped version of the Jetta. The vehicle will provide more power, it will be more fuel efficient, and it seems that its exterior design will be considerably changed.

Inside, the Jetta will be spacious and pleasant place to be in. Apparently, it will be as spacious as the Skoda Octavia. However, it seems that Volkswagen will put a lot of effort and stuff the Jetta with latest technological, safety, and convenience gizmos and therefore, you can expect the 2017 Jetta to be more expensive than the current model and other models in its segment. The cabin will be meticulously designed with only premium materials being used. Moreover, the carmaker will put a lot of effort to reduce noise inside of the cabin. There will be several equipment levels offered, and among them are Trend-line, High-line, and Comfort-line.

Until today, the Jetta was Volkswagen’s compact sedan, but some trusted sites reported that once the carmaker revamps it, it will be turned into a coupe-sedan. Some sources indicate that the upcoming Jetta will actually share some design cues with the Midsize Coupe Concept. Generally the recognizable shape of the Jetta will remain untouched but several new features have been added to improve vehicles overall look and functionality. Its front and rear end will now have sharper and cleaner lines that give the Jetta a more mature look.
