Interiors and Features in images
The pleasing, dual-tone dashboard remains, and so does the premium build quality all throughout.
Inside, fresh additions revolve around the new, sporty, flat-bottomed steering wheel from the Mk VII Golf and Polo/Vento face-lifts, replete with paddle shifters for the DSG transmission. The new wheel is also mounted with updated audio controls and telephony. There’s also a new driver fatigue detection system that analyses steering inputs and warns if it gathers information that the driver is starting to lose it, apart from some new chrome trimming.
The new flat-bottomed wheel is chunky and feels nice to hold; we love the sound of leather rubbing against the palm.
The front seats are supportive and perfectly bolstered, and hold your bottom and shoulders pretty snugly.
12-way electrical adjustable driver seat
If you get yourself a Jetta, chances are you’ll be spending some time in the rear seat as well, which offers more than enough room in all directions.
It also hides a central; drop down arm rest and a couple of glass holders.
The rear vents chill pretty effectively, but no individualized temperature control at the back.
The Highline gets a 6½ inch touch-screen infotainment system, 8 speakers (sounds good), 6-CD changer, AUX-in and SD card connectivity; but no USB connectivity.
The Trendline/Comfortline variants continue with a regular music system. No. of speakers go down from 8 to 4 on this variant.
Other features include 6 Airbags, 2 ISOFIX mounts, Climatronic System with dual zone Air Conditioning and Park distance control (front and rear). There is no rear view camera though.
The face-lift also adds a new, classier, chrome ringed instrument cluster.
Internal storage is commendable, and is accommodating enough
