Re: Are there any plans for an even hotter VW Jetta? - 02-21-2007, 06:32 AM

In Europe, it would be highly unlikely that VW would offer anything beyond the 2.0 TFSI (200HP) under the Jettas´ hood. As opposed to North America, the Jetta is not an extremely popular car in Europe. In fact, in the German speaking parts of Europe, Jettas are actually rare sightings and are considered "pensioners" cars. Most have VWs´ 1.6 engines in their bays, the 102HP or 115HP FSI versions.

Not that there is anything wrong with that, mind you. I actually find the Jetta a quite handsome car. Better looking than the Passat, for example.
