What kind of engine does the Jetta use?
2 Answers
Jetta uses two types of engines, one is a 1.4-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.4-liter naturally aspirated engine has 90 horsepower and a maximum torque of 132 Nm; the 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine has 110 horsepower and a maximum torque of 150 Nm. Jetta is an automobile brand under FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd., a joint venture of the German Volkswagen Group in China. In terms of body dimensions, the Jetta has a length, width, and height of 4501mm, 1704mm, and 1469mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2604mm. In terms of appearance, the Jetta adheres to the authentic Volkswagen design style, featuring a cool and handsome yet elegant exterior, making it a fashion pioneer.
I've been driving a Jetta for many years, and the current Jetta primarily uses Volkswagen's EA211 series engines, with the 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine being the mainstream model. This engine delivers smooth power and ample torque, making city driving particularly stable. It responds quickly with just a light press of the throttle at startup, and accelerates swiftly on the highway. Fuel consumption is quite economical, averaging 6 to 7 liters in the city and dropping to around 5 liters on the highway. Maintenance is straightforward, thanks to its durable chain-driven design that reduces belt replacement hassles. However, carbon buildup needs attention—cleaning the throttle body every 20,000 kilometers is sufficient. I've personally replaced spark plugs and engine oil, opting for full synthetic for longer durability. Overall, it boasts strong reliability with few faults, shares parts with other Volkswagen models, and has low repair costs, making it ideal for daily commuting and family use.
