With fluctuating gas prices, fuel efficiency is a top priority for car buyers. The 2005 Volkswagen Jetta TDI emerges as a compelling option, combining performance with impressive mileage.
Volkswagen highlights the Jetta TDI’s electronically advanced TDI diesel engine, engineered for optimal fuel economy and enhanced performance. Drivers can anticipate approximately 35.5 miles per gallon in city conditions and 41.5 on highways. This fuel efficiency allows for extended journeys, like driving from Detroit to Washington, D.C., without refueling.
The Jetta TDI offers a choice between a standard five-speed manual transmission and an optional six-speed automatic. Furthermore, it features updated technology that ensures a quieter, more powerful, and more efficient engine compared to older diesel models.
Safety is paramount, with the Jetta TDI equipped with front, front-side, and side curtain airbags, ABS, crash-active head restraints, and three-point seatbelts for all occupants. Additional features include dual-zone automatic climate control, a six-disc in-dash CD changer, heated front seats, cruise control, and remote central locking, enhancing the driving experience.
