The world bestseller VW Jetta, with over 9.6 million units built so far, was recently launched at New York’s Times Square during an international launch with Katy Perry as the main guest.

The Jetta is now being launched in Europe and this latest version of the compact class is expected to carry over its US success to Europe. Up to 110,000 VW Jettas are sold annually in the US.

The new Jetta, now significantly longer, is very appealing as a high-end, spacious and sporty saloon with maximum active drivingperformance.

“We have completely retuned its technology and styling. That is why our number 1 selling car in America will also be extending its position in Europe from now on,” Martin Winterkorn, chairman of the board of management of Volkswagen AG, said.

“At prices from €21,900, we are offering a Jetta that will add a new dimension of quality to the saloons of the compact class.”
