Hey mate! I'm from Brazil and I have a Jetta R line and ....each day more in love with my car. Here in Brazil VW does not sell Jetta with manual transmission unfortunately. Even R line was discontinued since 2021. Here only Jetta GLI stronger, more equipped and sure, expensive, much more. Your analysis translates the truly sensation of driving this car. I came from another my old cars who have multilink rear suspension on rear and guess what!? I found the MQB chassis outstanding and more efficient and confrontable than my previous car I ever had before. I got happy see you mentioned that cars over 100 thousand dollars doesn't bring the same quality and performance on driving in special on high speeds than Jetta does very well. I love to make turns with it. I got impressed since I drove mine and I intend to stay with it many years beyond. Congrats for analysis and congrats to VW engineering.
I rented a Jetta last fall. I was really impressed. Tons of legroom, quiet and rides well for a compact, good MPG and handled well. If I needed a car in that category I would absolutely consider it.
I just bought a 6 Speed Rline. They actually have a rear valance you can get to remove those fake tips. They also have a tune for it that gives it another 40 HP and 50ftlbs of torque. Plenty of power then!!
Have you used the tune on yours? I've been trynna find a lil performance upgrade for my 21 Jetta S (no R-line available when I bought mine). Could use a lil bump in power but otherwise satisfied
@@adrianjhatter Yes I have it on mine. It is amazing. Company is called Unitronic and you can remove the tune yourself if you need to take it to the dealer for service.
I have a 2020 Jetta SE,1.4 turbo..I use Ansol Oil only, but I got rid of another car I had and now I'm asking if I can use the 5w20 oil in the Jetta which had only 32,000 miles on it.Can you hit me back ASAP with an answer. Thks
Thanks for the review it help me in my decision to go for a 2023 Sportsline six speed manual transmission. The 2023 jetters don't come with a push button start or moonroof. But do come with a full digital cluster gauges and a upgraded engine. Fun car to drive.
Leasing this at the moment and it is a beast where I actually like the simplicity of the smartboard where I just let my S21 take care of the missing Google maps.
Test drove one today. That window behind the rear door is useless and adds to the massive blind spot there. Other than that, we really enjoyed the drive and would buy anyway.
@@jbshp2011 yes, I’ve had a 2019 R-Line for 2 years and loved it so much, I just picked up one of the last brand new 2021 R-Lines left because I do not like the styling of the 2022 at all.
@@cotyboggs4657 the 2022 looks alright but the rear bumpers looks like somebody punched them right in the mouth. volkswagens thing is they want to cheapen the vehicle by taking away the cold weather package that included the remote start, which i really want. sure you can start the car by using your phone via the car net but i would rather start the car using the key fob that something vw should have kept on the 2022 se and the sport jettas.big fail on their part vw.
let me start by saying I like your reviews, but giving that interior 4 out of 5 stars...😂. It isn't just the hard plastic but VW's refusal to modernize their cabins basic design. No features and old Infotainment technology. The arms rest is too short and far back. No proper place to put a phone yours is sticking out. I see the slit next to the cup holders which I think is their solution but still a bad location. Bad door panels get worse when you move to the rear seats...I could go on and on. I have had many VWs and they are still stuck in the past.
I liked the arm rest in my 2013 2.5 SE. Just a little slide forward action and bring able to set the angle with a soft enough pad... No complaints. The new ones... Yea. I feel you on most of your comment.
Great review, I own a 2020 Manual R-Line. Could use bit more power but the 6-speed compensates. Love my Jetta!

Love it! A little flat black paint for those chrome "tips" and problem solved! Great Review! Cheers!
I own this car and I can promise you on long road trips it blows away the mpg’s… I’ve gotten upwards to 56 miles per gallon!!!
“The transmission is my friend” lol what a great line
Really dreary interior with lots of hard plastics.

Nice vid. , I have a 2019 auto Jetta, 60k km, love it so far.
Nice review. Paint the exhaust trims matte black.

Does it void the warranty?

Still like to own a Jetta. one of
my friends owns a model like your driving and i like it.
I've received many thumbs up for this car

Sam, has that college guy vibe . Vans , shorts and a short sleeve shirt.... oh yeah
Literally anything more than that and you’d die of hyperthermia about 20 mins after you step outside in Arizona lol

I believe it also has android auto and apple car play! My brother just got a 2021 R line a week ago and his has it.
Thank you! This helped me make a decision between this (more affordable) and the passat

I never understood "r line" of any VW. You're just paying for visual changes and zero performance increase.

just saw the refresh 2022 jetta online. the R line is being replaced by a new sport model and the upgraded 1.5L turbo borrowed from the 2022 Taos
Can't wait to see it
Sport now comes with cloth seats, no cold weather package and without a sunroof… Huge fail!
@@cotyboggs4657 Well i guess ill go with the SEL model..screw the sport model

Would love to own the GLI.
Just picked up my own R-line mostly based on this review. Thanks!
hows the gas mileage trying to find something thats better then my current car
Annoying they took out the rear vents.
Not bad to lease for a few months 😊
Very cool review.
Are you sure it’s not salsa red?
Window sticker says Tornado Red
Nice.

Idk u sound spoiled I always been in older cars I love the look of the Jetta interior , no it’s not like a 5 series bmw but it’s still real clean
Excellent review!
a pink car...with a gutless engine. Germany is laughing their a$$es off. R-Line...yeah, right.
I agree, not a fan of black wheels either. Nor fake exhaust tips or auto stop start. Great review!
