The Jetta is Volkswagen's compact sedan that was redesigned for the 2011 model year. The Jetta was first introduced in the mid-1980s as a slightly upscale version of the Rabbit hatchback and became Volkswagen's bestseller in the U.S. The fifth-generation Jetta was introduced as a mid-year 2005 model that looked bigger, bolder and more powerful than its predecessor. The 2005 Jetta debuted with a new 150-horsepower 2.5-liter 5-cylinder engine developed specifically for the U.S. market. A 1.9-liter TDI diesel with direct injection was added later in 2005 but discontinued after the 2007 model year. For 2009, the TDI returned to the Jetta lineup with lower emissions and better efficiency than previous versions. The 2011 Volkswagen Jetta was redesigned with new exterior styling and interior updates.
