Does the Volkswagen Jetta have a reversing camera?
2 Answers
The Volkswagen Jetta does not come with a reversing camera. A reversing camera, also known as a parking assist system, reversing visual system, or vehicle monitoring system, is widely used in various large, medium, and small vehicles for reversing or driving safety assistance. The Volkswagen Jetta is a compact sedan with a body length, width, and height of 4419mm, 1841mm, and 1616mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2630mm. In terms of power, the Volkswagen Jetta is equipped with a 1.4T 150-horsepower L4 engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm.
I've been driving for many years, and my car is a Volkswagen Jetta VA3 model. It indeed has a reverse camera, which was the main reason I chose the high-end version. When I bought the car, the salesperson explained that in new models after 2019, this feature is often standard in high-end or mid-range versions. In practical use, the reverse camera has been a great help, especially when parking in narrow urban alleys—the image is clear, reducing the risk of scratches. Previously, driving an old car without this feature, I had to rely on rearview mirrors and rear radar, which had a high misjudgment rate. Now, reversing is much easier, and the safety factor has improved significantly. The basic version of the Volkswagen Jetta might not have it and may require an additional cost for installation. I suggest comparing the configuration list or test-driving the actual car before purchasing—don’t skimp on this expense to avoid regret. The reverse camera is practically a must-have in modern cars and very useful for daily commuting.
