Unladen weight: 1105 kg for the gasoline version, 1170 kg for the diesel version. Below is the relevant introduction: Old Jetta: The interior is relatively outdated and lacks innovation. The decorative combinations of seats and steering wheel are quite uniform, appearing somewhat mediocre and conventional. The old Jetta was discontinued in 2012, and there are no new cars available now. Main advantages: The new Jetta brand's various models all adopt a family-style front face design. The sedan models inherit the classic Volkswagen Jetta's appearance foundation, perfectly inheriting German genes and Volkswagen quality. Among them, the Jetta VS7 is developed on Volkswagen's advanced MQB platform, and the leading production technology shared globally by Volkswagen ensures its continued excellent quality. It better meets owners' needs in terms of safety, space, and technological configurations.

The curb weight of the old Jetta is around 1,100 kg. I once drove a 1990s Jetta for several years and felt its weight was quite moderate. I remember once taking a trip with friends—even fully loaded with luggage, the car didn’t sag noticeably. It drove very steadily, didn’t feel floaty at high speeds, and had good grip when cornering, making it much safer than lighter cars. The weight also affects fuel consumption; the old Jetta averaged about 8 liters per 100 km. While not the most fuel-efficient, it wasn’t too costly either. For more precise data, check the vehicle’s manual or look up the specific model online—different model years may vary slightly, but they generally fall within this range. Mechanics also say this weight makes repairs easier, with plenty of affordable parts available.

I estimate the weight of the old Jetta to be around 1100 kg. As a car enthusiast, I've modified the wheels and suspension of this model, and weight has a significant impact on handling. A heavier chassis provides more stability on highways, shorter braking distances, and reduces accident risks. However, adding too many accessories like audio systems or bumpers, increasing the weight to 1200 kg, can easily affect fuel consumption. Additionally, the old Jetta's weight is helpful for beginners to practice parking skills—the car is neither too light nor too heavy, offering a natural feel when reversing and preventing fatigue after long drives. To confirm, the measurement method is quite simple: visit a weighing station or a professional shop, rather than relying on unreliable online data.

The curb weight of the old Jetta is approximately 1,100 kg. I remember this figure clearly because I checked the maintenance records when I bought the used car last year. A lighter car saves fuel, and the old Jetta does this decently, consuming 7-8 liters per 100 km in daily city driving, with even better efficiency on occasional long trips. The weight doesn’t have a huge impact—it handles turns nimbly without feeling too floaty, though there’s some wobble at high speeds, so maintaining speed is important. To check the weight, you can refer to the dashboard reading or consult a mechanic. Don’t worry about misjudging the numbers—historical data for older cars is widely available online.
