I’m looking in to this car thank you sooo much you were so helpful with showing and explaining the seat color changed by jeans stains it’s sooo true
I am glad they added Remote Start standard for the SLE Premium for late 2019 with the Cold weather package
Nice review, if you may allow me to share my experience with my 2019 Jetta SEL ..
- A lot of people think that the 1.4 engine is not enough, I have the car so far 2 months and it is more than enough, it has 147 Hp and 184 lbs of torque with turbo, who ever says that the engine is under power then they should try corolla, Hyundai, and Honda they will find that the Jetta is the best.
- four people in the car total weight approximately 620lbs with full tank of fuel, still the engine is way more than enough.
- at the speed of 65 miles the engine RPM is less than 1900 RPM, and still it has too much power to accelerate.
- I drove my car with the cruise control set at 65 mph for a distance of 360 miles non stop, when I stopped at the gas station, I filled 7.763 gallons only I am using regular unleaded 87, I filled it all way, so I got 46.37 MPG, now that’s great.
- the noise level is low, and it feels solid on the highway.
- adaptive cruise control is very very smooth, I have a 2018 corolla I hate the adaptive cruise control on it.
- lane departure is more effective than the corolla, and the Jetta has a lane departure with blind spot.
- rear traffic alerts is not just an alert, it will apply brakes if you don’t, not only that even front alert with brakes with take care of you.
Now Volkswagen has added a cold weather package for an extra $450 on the SE, R line, SEL, and SEL premium, you will get a remote start, heated steering wheel, heated rear seats, and heated nozzle for windshield washer.
Things that I wish Volkswagen will add are :
- a 12V and charging port in the back seat.
- a 2nd USB data port in the middle console, so we can connect the iPod and at the same time use the navigation from the apple car play.
- Call End button on the steering wheel.
Overall it’s a great car, with so many features.
Thank you for your video and the nice review, and thank you Volkswagen for making a great car.
Manual or automatic ? Thanks for the answer :)
Great review as always. I'm loving the new jetta
Thanks Marcel!!!!
Love your videos man. I can't wait to buy one of these cars. The Jetta was my first car, looks like I'll be returning to my first love. I'm in Columbia so it's good to see more South Carolinians making car videos!
I'm picking up mine tomorrow!!!
GREAT REVIEW!
I like the new 2019 Jetta. It has alot tech inclunding the GPS on the digitial instrument cluster that not other car brands have at that price. Chad you did a very excellent half hour in deph video
Thank you Juan. Glad you enjoyed it!
Your welcome Chad
Cars now days don’t need gps
As for technology pros and cons
More distracted driving
Nice video, nice vehicle., I wish more specific data were mentioned here!
I just uploaded a new Jetta video yesterday. If theres something you'd like to see me mention feel free to let me know. I film VW weekly. thanks, Chad
I love this car. I had the SEL Premium since last week. I love the gas mileage, features and tech. The Audi like back is sweet. I just wish it is lower on the ground with bigger wheels like 18 inches.
Why are people in the comments so bitter when it comes to VW. Most of these people have never been in a VW. If you don’t like the car move on.
Well equipped vehicle for 28 grand. Also I had an SUV with light interior seats and it was a nightmare to keep the seats clean, and blue jeans made it worse. Thanks for the review, I enjoy watching them.
This is a nice car! Good job!
This new Jetta is amazing specially with features for the price this is a very competitive VW and I hope it can sell very well
Do you know if all the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta SEL Premiums come standard with the All weather mats, trunk mat, road side assistant kit and cargo protection system?
Bought the S(base) model. Has everything I want and no (less) fluff to break down the road.
It still has: remote unlock, power windows/locks, steering wheel controls, Auto headlights, Apple/Android, heated mirrors, back up camera with rear sensing of moving cars, forward collision braking, proximity sensors, trunk CarGo mat, mud mats and carpeted mats, option of manual transmission, simple HVAC controls that won't end in motor failures years from now that you have to take the dash apart to fix, alloy wheels. All that for $16,xxx in manual transmission form (MSRP is around $21). What's not to like?... The electronic parking brake....errr.
I need one vw are always nice
27:37 torque converter rattling noise...sounds like a burp. A lot of people are complaining about this noise and VW is saying that it is normal.
The trunk actually shrunk along with the fuel tank.
But it's a really nice car my mom gas a 2012 Jetta and we love it thank you for this video
Your comment regarding the 2 tone leatherette is misleading because as you can see the bolster part of the seat for the back and thigh area is covered in tan color, your jeans will still be leaving the blue dye on them over time just like the Acura you mentioned. The 2 tone does not protect the seat from your jeans it is only for aesthetics to make it look more sporty.
Debating on this car or the 2018 honda hatchback
I don’t think the 2019 jetta has parking sensors does it?
I ended up getting an 18 Passat over the 19 Jetta. Bigger car, bigger engine, bigger gas tank, no fake exhaust, etc. The one thing I do like in the 19 is the curved dash and how gps can be dead center. I'm mixed with the digital dash though.
great comment and congrats on the new Passat.
The Passat is dated and looks old looking, no tech in side. Needs to be revamped. The Jetta is a gas saver.
Gostei do carro ficou muito lindo e sofisticado!
Claudio Santos O bacana é que é a mesma motorização do jetta brasileiro, só não sei se vai ter a versão 2.0 de 220cv no Brasil, acho que eles não têm esta opção de motorização.
Jadson SMS boa noite! Então pelo que eu li vai vir sim. As versões 1.4 e também a 2.0. no Brasil o Jetta não vende tão bem, os brasileiro estão preferindo os SUV compacto. Os carros da Volkswagen no Brasil os preços são elevados. Abraço
Claudio Santos Boa noite concordo com você, porém esta é uma tendência mundial até o mercado norte americano está preferindo os suvs.
@@jadsonsms Não só mesma motorização do brasileiro, mas o motor dessa versão norte americana é de fato brasileiro (produzido em são carlos). Ele é exportado para o méxico, onde é montado e vai para usa e pra cá também.
I had a 2021 Corolla that bored me so bad I was crying every night. Dumped it at a loss to get into a slightly used 2019 Jetta SEL and my life was transformed. SEL handling, suspension, ride quality DESTROYED the Corolla to an obscene level. And only cost $1500 more for same year model. My one complaint with Jetta was the torque grinding noise, but it is not a constant noise. You hear it a few seconds when you accelerate between 27 and 32 mph and then it is gone. Not sure if anything is being damaged. But if so, the 2019 Jetta has a six year warranty.
I'm waiting for the GLI version to come out... I bet that will be something special..
Mindy G will the GLI up the price?
Her favorite color is chrome. Hope the gli has a blacked out grille.
Yes the Gli grill is all black with a redline.
Don’t really like the exterior but maybe it will grow on me. The interior is really nice 👍
I really like the new Jetta! Would it be possible to install the backseat air conditioning vent with the USB ports from other VW model like the new Tiguan? The 1.4 liter seems to be pretty solid, but a 2.0 liter would be amazing.
I think you might just need to purchase a different car if you want rear AC vents. Its not going to be worth your time and money trying to do that, but that would make one hell of a video lol.
@@CarolinaCarVideos I've seen someone do that with their 2018 VW Polo... But the vents isn't a deal breaker to me anyways.
The 2.0 GLI
360 camera? Where?
The smaller motor in these cars will not show their true colors til the car has higher milage, that when the wear and tear starts revealing their durability.
Overall, much better and better built than its predecessor.......except for the fake exhaust tips.
Rims gotta go! But other than that great!
initial quality control sucks...picked up mine and there is a piece of felt sticking out of the top dash below the pillar speaker ...also car is whisper quiet everywhere except the underbelly of the drivers side...very audible intermittent whooshing sounds at certain speeds that the vw techs say is normal but I didn't hear on my test drive or else I would have ran out of the dealer...otherwise I'm stuck with the annoyances
I own the SEL Premium. I hope a fix comes out for the annoying torque converter noise....so disappointed. :(
I'll share this video on my Facebook.
thanks Jadson. Maybe it will get some better hits.
WHERE IS THE SKI PASS-THRU? WHY DID THEY GET RID OF THE ADJUSTABLE ARMREST? WHAT IS WITH THE FIXED REAR HEADRESTS?
I'm feeling your pain. of course I can't always talk about these things in some of these reviews, because the dealership puts some of my videos on there website. Yes where are these things you mention? I'm assuming VW left them out to save money.
Nice review; however, one thing struck me. If you're wearing jeans, you're still going to be sitting on the tan leather where it will stain. Putting dark vinyl (actually) on the sides and back, won't keep the tan leather clean.
hmm. you got me thinking about this now lol. thanks David. now I'm kind of wondering about this tonight while sitting at my computer editing.
Thanks for the response, especially because I'm a month late.
But that's why I've always preferred dark leather, it's easier to keep clean.
And I'm seriously considering an SEL Premium for my next car. A lot of people are calling it a Poor Man's A4. If only they hadn't cut corners in a few places, and added things with little value. (I'm looking at you, customizable ambient lighting!).
@@davidm5707 they cut corners to give more tech at an affordable price. VW Jetta still out sale most compact cars.
Why I prefer my 2017 Jetta SEL over the 2019 (based on reviewer comments / reports):
• more engine choices for 2017, mine has the 1.8 L engine
• Independent rear suspension with 2017
vs torsion beam
• True exhaust outlets for 2017 vs Fake exhaust outlets with 2019
• Adjustable center arm rest vs fixed
for 2019
• Height adjustment for front passenger seat
missing for 2019
• Adjustable rear headrests gone with 2019
• Rear deck more glare resistant; glare reports for 2019
• Damped glove box with inner upper shelf gone for 2019
• Engine shutoff when stopping with 2019, air turns off etc.(does have an off switch)
• Solid moon roof slide cover
vs flimsy cloth material with 2019
* A Pillar material covered vs solid plastic with 2019
• more touch screen functions / interface with 2019 which resulted in some unwanted connections when
bumped
* 2019 Seating is very benchlike, some reports it was less comfy
* And, trunk lid fully opens with 2017 vs needing further lifting with 2019
In all fairness I have not driven the 2019 so these comments if they are all accurate may not be important for some new buyers. More soft touch surfaces on 2019 front doors, and MQB platform may provide a better and more quiet ride experience, etc.
Thank you for sending me this breakdown David. I look forward to sharing some of this information with my viewers.
this car is agent 47 approved
Another good review. Seems like vw cut some corners on this $30k car and the best part of the car is the dash. If I were spending $30k on a car, I would look elsewhere.
Thanks Kev Hed. glad you enjoyed the review. I just uploaded the 2019 Jetta S in depth review today. So I do agree with you about VW cutting some corners, but still a really nice vehicle for the money. My main concern was VW not giving the rear passengers any air vents. It was odd to see the cutout for air vents, but nothing there and that was even on the SEL Premium version Jetta.
Me too... a Mazda6 GT would be a better buy and your buying a class up.
Better looking car but those wheels are just not good. Almost cheap knockoffs from an old Kia or something
I hate those wheels too!
Looks like they caught the HONDA Rims syndrome.
Greg Hines yeah, the car would look sooooooi much better with other type of wheels. VW/Audi has great wheel designs.... wtf?
The R-Line Jetta has very pretty rims.
What a comedian review 😂😂
Thumbs up for guy crawling into trunk
Love the interior but those wheel design are nasty.
Finally an end to the god awful Sixth Generation Jetta's. The new Generation Jetta looks like a great car to have along with the VW Atlas.
Bryan Ramey The fake exhaust is not better.
This is not better. This looks like a Ford fusion but worse.
0bsolete-X It looks nothing like a Ford Fusion. It looks like an Audi.
The Dude gtfo nothing about Audi is incorporated into this car except maybe some aspects of the infotainment screen. There's a good reason why this thing is only made for the North American market.
0bsolete-X So all of the reviewers that compare it to Audi and the fact Audi is part of VW is just made up? There's even a video with the Jetta and Audi together. You might not see it, but it's there. The fake exhaust tips on certain trims is the most obvious. I don't think the car looks that bad myself, but I did go with a Passat instead for the size difference. Cant please everyone that's why theres so many cars on the market.
2002-2019 Jettas need air vents in the back seat like if you agree
YES THEY DO!!!!! I can't believe the 2019 Jetta has no air vents in the rear. its really kind of annoying and I don't like seeing kids having to sweat from the hot summer heat in the Carolina's.
Hei you have to know 27000$ sel premium don't even have the parking sensors ! That's bull shit vw!
I love vw but my 2010 passat cc is by far superior to this :/ dissapointed.. I was looking forward on the new jetta.....but nvm.
This has more technology built into the car Great car at the price point.
SEL is where it's at, SEL Premium pushes the price too high, not giving much in return. SEL package is the one that infuses a lot of Audi into the interior, the exterior already gives off enough Audi vibes. I've been babying a 2014 Jetta S from day one, now 25k miles on it. The 6yr/72k warranty, free 3yr maintenance, the gas mileage, the horsepower (2014 S has the lame 2.0 engine from 1993) even the torque, everything is 50% to 100% better on the new one! The reason why a new VW can be a great deal: The Diesel scandal. VW's action to undo the damage done to the brand favor the consumers. A bumper to bumper warranty outlasting the loan for the car? Sign me up! Except, I have 14 payments left on mine and at 25k miles, it makes sense for me to be payment free for a while until I hit 50k miles and then trade it in for a 2021 revision of this model right here, you know it will sit on MQB! Right now, in my area, the SEL's go for 5k below sticker. I would grab one for no more than 22k. If you are spending more, you are better of grabbing a Golf or a Passat, plenty of heavily discounted 2018's everywhere. Mark my words, the Jetta SEL is a great deal for under $22k. How do I know? VW can't sell it in Europe, it would wreak havoc on Passat, Polo and Golf Sales, at this price it would hurt even the cheaper sub VW brands like Skoda and Seat.
You are right on.... they are trying to make up for that diesel blunder... I'm going to either get this SEL ...or waiting on the new Honda Insight coming in a few months... oh by the way...is the SEL better than the R line? thanks
I drove the sel premium last week...very quiet...and there seemed to be a lot of play in the steering wheel.. I wish they would tighten that up....
thanks for the great input here TheAxb2010! I'll have to get the keys to a SEL and review it soon. I do understand your thoughts about the SEL being a better buy for the money than the SEL Premium, but theres always those people that will want the extras that the SEL P offers.
R line has XDS differential, a few sporty looking fake intakes, sits a hair over 1/2" lower and has it's own 17" wheels. SEL beats it in features.
Absolutely. Can't forget a GLI is coming soon, each model has it's place and the features customers will insist on having.
30+40=70. 70/2=35. That combined is inaccurate. 35mpg is the combined average
My ears are piercing
Rather have a reliable and fun to drive Mazda 3
no one over 6ft can sit in the back seat
silkhead44 sucks for them
Not impressed with beat audio. Beats is only popular because of the name, not quality.
Those horrible wheels, the sea of piano black plastic all over the dash, the white interior pillars and roof and the overall boring exterior really ruined the new Jetta.
