How high is the rear floor hump in the Jetta VA3?
2 Answers
Jetta VA3's rear floor hump is approximately 20cm high. Jetta VA3 engine specifications: The Jetta VA3 is equipped with a 1.5L engine producing maximum power of 112 horsepower and peak torque of 145 N·m. The 0-100 km/h acceleration time is 12 seconds for manual transmission and 12.5 seconds for automatic transmission, with fuel consumption of 5.7L and 5.6L per 100km respectively. Jetta VA3 design: Featuring youthful vitality, the front fascia incorporates Volkswagen's classic design elements with a dot-matrix grille that defines the family design language. It perfectly blends sporty fashion with modern sophistication.
I've been driving the Jetta VA3 for over a year, often giving friends rides, and that center hump in the rear is quite noticeable. I measured it roughly, and it's about 15 cm tall, similar to a regular soda can. The design is like that because the exhaust pipe and driveshaft tunnel run underneath the chassis. When a third person sits there, it's not very comfortable to place their feet on it, especially during long trips when legs can get sore, but it's fine for two people. If you're carrying kids or pets, it's not a big deal. I suggest you visit a dealership to test the rear seat space yourself before buying—try sitting in the middle to feel the actual height. The Jetta is decent as a family car overall, but this minor drawback is worth considering to avoid affecting daily commuting comfort.
