ALL-NEW 2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA UNVEILS 15 JUNE


It looks like by this time tomorrow night we will know what the all-new Volkswagen Jetta will look like. This little teaser image has appeared all over the interweb and promises a BIG reveal on the 15th of June for the US market.

From the little we see of the silhouette it appears the front grille is the same style as current VWs, meaning very simple, with a couple of sharp edges around the headlights. The car has certainly grown in size and should be of similar girth and length to the Audi A4.

Engines expected to debut include the 1.4 TSI, 1.8 TSI, 2.0 TDI and a V6. Gearboxes will include a 6-speed manual and a DSG. We don’t know if a performance Jetta R is on the cards yet, but we certainly hope so. Jetta fans have been too long starved of a heart-throbbing model in their range.

We should be able to spot the Jetta 6 at South African dealerships in late 2010 or early 2011.

PUNKS! Then again their CC 3.0L V6 does not seem to do well in Jozi altitudes. I'd assume thats the engine they use.
