I've been driving the Jetta VS7 for several years, and its curb weight is around 1,420 kilograms, which is the weight of the empty car without any passengers or cargo. This weight is quite important for the car's overall performance because a lighter SUV is more fuel-efficient in the city and more agile when parking and turning. However, the VS7's weight makes it particularly stable at high speeds, not swaying even in strong winds, which enhances safety. Additionally, with a heavier body, tire wear can be faster, so I make it a habit to check the tire pressure every 5,000 kilometers to avoid excessive wear. Overall, the 1,420 kg figure strikes a good balance between fuel efficiency and comfort. Even when fully loaded with family on trips, it feels stable and doesn’t compromise the trunk storage space—after all, as an SUV, its weight is designed reasonably.

As a young person who often drives out for fun, I know the kerb weight of the Jetta VS7 is 1,420kg. Weight affects handling, and it's neither too light nor too heavy, with quick steering response, so it doesn't skid when driving on mountain roads or taking turns. If overloaded, the increased weight adds to the power burden, making acceleration slower and fuel consumption higher. I've also compared it to other cars in the same class, like some Japanese SUVs that are lighter but lack a sense of stability—the VS7's weight makes driving feel more secure. I recommend not carrying too much luggage during daily use, as it can increase braking distance and affect safety. Remember to check the suspension system during regular maintenance to keep the original weight state for better durability.

My family uses the Jetta VS7 as a commuter car, with a curb weight of 1420kg. This weight is suitable for family use, offering spaciousness, safety, and stability, so kids feel secure in the back seat. The heavier weight and lower chassis reduce bumps, making it steady even on rough roads. However, avoid overloading it with items, as excessive weight can increase fuel costs. It's good practice to check the trunk before long trips. For long-term use, this weight is ideal for an SUV, with low maintenance costs and fewer breakdowns.

I've been commuting with the Jetta VS7 for a long time, with a curb weight of about 1,420 kg. This weight affects daily expenses, with an average fuel consumption of 10L per 100 km in the city, which is not high. Lighter weight saves fuel but makes high-speed driving less stable, while heavier weight consumes more fuel but enhances safety. I also pay attention to seasonal changes; in summer, the air conditioning increases the load slightly, making the car feel a bit heavier, but not significantly. It's recommended to install an onboard computer to monitor real-time data and avoid overloading, which can affect vehicle balance and fuel economy.

According to my experience, the Jetta VS7 has a curb weight of around 1420kg. This weight is beneficial for maintenance, as tire wear is slower, reducing the need for frequent replacements. However, increased weight after loading goods can accelerate component wear, so it's recommended to inspect the suspension and drivetrain every six months. While a heavier car provides stability on highways, it slightly reduces maneuverability in urban areas and leads to a minor increase in fuel consumption. Driving with lighter loads is more economical, and maintaining efficient power output is ideal for long-distance travel.

Does ETC have to be installed on the windshield?

ETC can be used without being attached to the windshield. Installing ETC on the upper part of the windshield is to minimize obstruction of the driver's view and to ensure better recognition by the equipment at highway toll stations. If you don't want to install it on the windshield, try to place it in an open position where it can be seen through the windshield. The installation position for ETC in small cars is generally in the upper middle part of the front windshield, while for large vehicles like trucks and buses, it is in the middle lower part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, ETC should be installed in the microwave window area. Here are the precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view; it's best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have windshields with a large tilt angle, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. If ETC is installed without considering this, it can increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it behind the rearview mirror on the right side can avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it casually: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If it is removed casually, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to go to an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Notes for using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic payment for the vehicle ahead. The recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to payment failure. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance will also cause payment failure.
