If you dig in directories and dictionaries, you can find out that the word JET, which has English roots, hides several values. JET is a strong jet, stream. Geologists under the word see solely - Gagat or, as they are also called, black amber (type of coal). Engineers, some other better, mean different, but mostly something that uses the reactant. Under the vulture of "R." Many dictionaries in the "JET" give a "turbine" or that church - "jetting plane". In German Jett -Clairing from black glass ... And the Volkswageth developers of the word were a little intimidated and since 1979 began to call them one of their models. Jetta. Forest and promisingly sounds, right? And whether this intention is consonant with the essence of the essence that car carries itself? This we have to find out.
Current Jetta appeared in the 2005th. Waters have undergone a lot of water since ... Ask what made us take a model to the test, which is available for two years to a row? We answer! Moving her production in Kaluga. After all, from February of the month on our market, Jetta only comes with the Russian assembly ...
The intrigue began in a distance of 2003, when the Germans brought the long-awaited golf of the fifth knee. At the first meeting from the first seconds of dating, I penetrate him with warm feelings: he was too great. Tight, but not hard. Accurate, but not sharp. Sure. Calm. Unmistakable. Reference.
These features, together with the platform, inherited and sister. Jetta from the unlucky brother - golf in short shorts, like an apple from the apple. In manners and behavior, she is also full of pragmatism, but (which sin is to hone?) Women's start, no matter how cool, gives her peculiarity. You look at it - a sort of young man - beauty ... from a good family: a downtry, with a good look and even character. Before the beauty, however, it does not reach yet, but it is impossible to call it too. Sarafan she sewed what it was necessary, to become a nor: it looks like "Swan" is not easy, but also in a poor. Take a look, for example, on a chrome-plated radiator shield or runs away from the "Arrows" - submarines (there is no brother) ... straight "spinning"! ..
By the way, unfortunately decorated here. This is an attempt to make a golf ... Sorry ... Of course, Jetta is more adult and mature. Agree, many thanks to these attributes confuse it with a higher Passat rank. However, the size and proportions of the "babes", too, the flaws contribute be healthy. And if a cheaper car is such a "confusion" only on hand, the owners of "wind farms" can start jealous.
But back to our Kaluga ward ... the key in the fist, in the knees shivering, under the spoon, the anticipation of the feeling of pleasure from the new Randene with the Golf Chassis who loved me. Why only the chassis? Yes, because our Jetta with a 1.6-liter motor, strangled, besides, to the norms of Euro 4. Because of him, the poor fellow suffers with hypodynamines. Sustilly, but still suffers. Heavyly "Baby" for those 102 "horses" and 148 Newton meters, which were attached under the saddle of the benzomotor. Heavyweight. The sedan is lazy on acceleration and stubborn as it can. Although, on the other hand, if we whipped the nonposable morestar, it is possible to jump quite and very tightly and even choppy. But this is if you keep the tachometer arrow within 4-6.5 "digital revolutions" per minute. However, if you want to "chess" in the stream, you need a motor more powerful. The benefit of Jetta in Kaluga is produced with a 1.4-liter 140-strong TSI (220 N) and 105-strong 1.9-liter TDI (250 N M). These engines, by the way, can be selected with six-speed preselective DSG boxes.
Sprint to the cherished "hundreds" Our 1268 kilogram "JET" performs for long 12.2 seconds. But the 55-liter tank is enough for pre-oh-oh-olgo ... requires a motor for his work quite a bit: a mixed cycle, if not more than 7.5 liters of the 95th octane flies over a hundred kilometers into the pipe. For a hundred km run along the highway, the car spends six liters, in the city - 9.9.
And it is suitable not only for everyday measured trips on a tablecloth rolled asphalt roads, but also for ride at the limit. And the chassis of soil bumps and the crystrine is not completely abundant - for Russia, what is needed (from our machines, by the way, the clearance is more than European). Unnecessary shaking and breakdowns the suspension also does not annoy. Rolls are minimal. On a straight golf jetty is extremely stable, in turning is reliable and pleases with neutral turning. Here are only regular tires Continental SportContAct 2 to her not very suitable. Reactions are composed.
The performance of the electric power and the amount of feedback force is generated depending on the speed. You can twist at least one finger on the parking lot, with a further increase in the speed of the steering wheel, "heavy". But until the best samples of hydraulic analogues, the electric power does not reach. With an active flight, he albeit a bit, but still "stuck", and the information about the microrelief of the road and the corner of the turn of the wheels on the steering wheel could be more ... However, what is that there is a sense of unity with the car does not destroy.
Ergonomics of the workplace (yes what to discuss, not already once again) worked out for five with a plus. The steering wheel of the medium size (is adjustable in height and departure) wonderfully falls into the hands, the adjustment ranges is enough for the eyes, and with which savor dives from the position to the position of the switching of the mechanical five-step leaves ... you download. The picture is slightly spoils a long-timed little informative clutch. The drive when starting from the place often sends "Little Flour" (we are about the motor) in the knockout. However, this is a matter of habit. I changed the tact with a little, slightly gazalized than usual when starting and order. The visibility is first and on the sides, but you do not feel the feed absolutely, there is simply a parking sensor here. Jetta is ideal for long journeys: And behind the wheel is not tired, and in the back of the place is abused even for tall high-tidy saddles - neither knees nor the macushki even at the 190-centimeter dilda do not rest. Honor and praise ergonomists!
What about quality? Did you damage the crossing of the assembly conveyor? Yes, it seems not to ... After all, in Kaluga, Jetta is collected by the SEMI Knocked Down Labor Assembly. Body on the tape comes fully ready. And our only hang separately brought front and rear axles, power units and some more small things. The technical liquids of the sedans are filled, of course, here. After the assembly, the machine and all of its systems are subjected to final testing: electronics, as befits, is interviewed by a computer for faults. The engine, transmission and chassis are checked on running drums and a dynamometer path. The body is subjected to verification on tightness in the sprinkle chamber, and the quality of the paintwork - control in the light tunnel.
But not everything turned out to be smooth, as I wanted. The assembly of our copy hung a couple of questions in the air ... The first of them is "Cicada" in the front panel, which turned out to be a rattling glass of the dashboard. But with this nonsense, you can still come to terms, much more significant mischief is the driver's door in height. In the wicket of the "gate" stands with a small break - on the windows line and the glass frame it is clear that the rear part of the "twist" millimeter is one and a half lower than. Somehow not at all in Volkswagenovsky. All anything, if it were not prevented by the doors to open without jamming. What is it? Volkswagen gives positions? Or is guided by double standards? Whatever it, we hope, in the future this will no longer happen again.
Would I choose Jetta with a constant companion? Perhaps yes. But in marriage with her, I would probably be ashamed from time to time, which pulls the "left" to the more temperamental and burning C-class representatives. Yes Mature chassis, yes Ergonomics, and a spacious rear sofa, and a bottomless 527-liter "chest" on the stern ... But this companion is too correct. So correct that this correctness sometimes buys boredom and may even be cold. I will tell her "Yes," when I will become a little older and quieter. And cooler. After all, 578,969 "wooden" for the most weak of the Jett family is not a joke.
The German Volkswagen is known not only for its quality and attention to the details, but also by the beauty created by designers and incarnate in the company's cars. Jetta is no exception. The car, which has been created for over 40 years, has passed many transitions from generation to generation, improving its running quality, its appearance with each of these generations can rightly be considered one of the best creations of the concern.
Place assembly
The official production and sale of Jetta on the territory of the Russian Federation began only in 2008, together with the opening of the conveyor for the production of the fifth generation of the car in Kaluga. The car was made both with gasoline engines (with a volume of from 1.4 to 2.5 liters) and with diesel (with a volume of two liters). The selection of the gear shift box varied from five and six-speed mechanical to six-speed automatic and six-seven-speed semi-automatic boxes. The Euro NCAP test showed the maximum five security stars for Jetta.
The sixth generation also has been produced in Kaluga since recent times. There is no particular sense to paint the running part, as it has practically changed from the time of the fifth generation.
Build quality
It is significant that the owners have no objective pick-up to assembling a car - even the Russian assembly deserves praise from satisfied buyers. Plastic salon does not begin to creak even after a long exploitation, the car is not so subject to corrosion, as some representatives of this segment, wide gaps and other defects of the hull welding in individual parties are also noticed by the owners.
However, if we take into account that we live in Russia and we have to deal with Russian roads, then one serious drawback is revealed, with which they should have been working on the Kaluga auto-factory - the car landing is quite low. The processing of the suspension would not interfere with this car for more ideal status in its segment.
(No ratings no)
For this legendary sedan, the production of Volkswagen, which at all times used the striking sustainable demand and mad popularity, and now its niche is prepared. For the assembly of Volkswagen Jetta, two enterprises operate, one of which is in Mexico, and the second in Russia in Nizhny Novgorod.
The Mexican plant produces cars intended for American and European markets, and the plant in Nizhny Novgorod works to the CIS market.
Factory in Nizhny Novgorod
This company is one of the youngest in the structure of not only Volkswagen concern, but also among the Folkswagen Rus Groups. The beginning of the production of the full cycle occurred at the end of 2012. Plant's production facilities are designed to produce up to 132 thousand cars, taking into account the fact that the production is mastered by three different models of Volkswagen and Skoda.
Released Jetta at the factory has passed a certain adaptation of operation on the roads of Russia and in difficult climatic conditions. Road clearance increased to 160 mm, and the suspension is specially made harsh, given the most even roads. The suspension was additionally even strengthened, in particular, more powerful shock absorbers and transverse stability stabilizers were installed.
Among the few Ogrekhov, which were discovered at the stage of acquiring a car, and at first exploitation, the following can be allocated:
- The use of defective sealing rubber in the back of the rear doors (detachment, uneven trimming, mechanical damage). Easily eliminate warranty.
- With the exception of the engine compartment noise insulation, all other directions should additionally strengthen (wheel arches, doorways, baggage compartment).
- When operating in winter conditions, problems are noted in the closing of the trunk lock. Therefore, it is advisable to produce it and prevent the accumulation of snow and moisture in the mechanism.
- The rigid suspension and low-quality roads transmit strong vibration on the details of the front console, which leads to the appearance of squeaks and rattling.
As an unpleasant features of the car, there is a high cost of some options, so some additions of auto, navigation, multimedia system, parking sensors are better installed independently.
Plant in Mexico
Mexican cars can be found both almost new and used. It should be borne in mind that the delivery of a new car costs quite expensive.
On the overseas Volkswagen Jetta, the following flaws are marked:
- Unimportant quality panels of the central console and door inserts.
- Insufficient noise isolation of wheeled arches and doorways. Therefore, many modify this gap independently.
- The standard radio and column is low quality, which not only does not provide proper sound, but also leads to frequent breakdowns.
- The low quality of the paint coating, which is prone to the appearance of small damage (chips and scratches).
In any corner of the world, Volkswagen cars will learn from unique appearance and the quality of the details. With such success now for the past 40 years, the company produces one of its well-known models - Jetta. This car survived many changes, and a considerable number of transitions from generation to generation. Nowadays, official brand dealers offer this model with improved running characteristics and upgraded design. Each generation of this car love and appreciate, also, Russian buyers.
For many, the fact is the fact that the Volkswagen Jetta is descended for the Russian market. On the territory of Russia, the official assembly and the sale of this model "German" started in 2008. Here, the enterprise in Kaluga opened a conveyor for the production of the fifth generation of the machine. The plant is equipped with the latest equipment, so cars are harvested on all necessary standards. The Volkswagen Jett model is produced by both diesel and gasoline power supply. The volume of the engine varies from 1.4 to 2.5 liters. Russian buyers offered a sedan with five - and six-speed "mechanics", with a six-speed "automatic" and six-sequeous semi-automatic agent. On EURO NCAP tests, this model received five security stars. Also at the Kaluga company collect the sixth generation of the car Volkswagen Jetta.
Where else produce a model
Sedan Volkswagen Jet is considered a folk car. At the same time, the manufacturer so it positions for European and American buyers. For Russian consumers, this "German" is more tribute to fashion. The new Volkswagen in addition to the Russian Federation is collected in one country - this is Mexico.
From where the Volkswagen Jetta is produced, the quality, safety and operational period of the car depends. Mexico is the main market for this model. In addition, the Mexican version of Jetta is supplied to the United States. Machines that are collected in Mexico are more expensive than automobile assembly cars. If you figure it out, the Russian assembly is almost no different from the "Zaochanskaya". Kaluga plant is equipped with the latest technology. On the welding shop of the enterprise prepare the initial design of the sedan, and in the paint shop, the car is painted, after I send to the drying chamber. Only after all these procedures begins the production of Jetta.
Quality of domestic assembly
Before proceeding with the reviews of the owners of the German sedan, I would like to note that installing ConceptLine was created specifically for the Russian market. The machine is offered with two types of transmission: five and six-speed KP. You will cost you this version of the sedan in 733,000 rubles. Volkswagen Jetta This is perhaps one of those cars that no negative reviews. Now we are talking about Jetta Russian assembly. The owners are completely satisfied with the domestic car, they say that after the operation of the vehicle, even plastic does not begin to creak.
In the case of this model, it does not matter where Volkswagen Jetta is released, because the quality is equally good. The scented version of the sedan is not so strongly subject to corrosion as other machines of this segment. The owners did not notice defects in body welding and in vehicle gaps. But, nevertheless there is one disadvantage of the Russian "German" - this is a low landing. Therefore, we recommend that the Kaluga enterprise will work on the improvement of the car suspension so that it can be used for a hundred percent to operate on Russian roads.
From the beginning of May of this year, the Volkswagen Jetta sedan has ceased from the conveyor of the Gorky Automobile Plant. According to Vedomosti, with reference to its own source in the industry, production was stopped in connection with the change of generations of the model: in 2019, the "four-year" new generation should be released on the Russian market.

According to the representative of the Volkswagen concern, at the initial stage of the release of the new Volkswagen Jetta, cars will be imported into Russia. Presumably the first deliveries of dealers will receive in the second half of next year.
The prospect is quite remote, if we consider that abroad the new generation VW Jetta is already released. However, as explained in the company, this is due to the fact that all cars for the first time produced in the appeal in the Russian Federation must necessarily equip the devices of the Era GLONASS system, for this you need to spend crash tests and get a new one.
As reported by the publication, a representative of the automotive concern refused to speak about possible localization of the new generation of Volkswagen Jetta in Russia. Now the production has been established in Mexico and in China. Presumably, the issue of issuing new items in the Russian Federation will be solved after the sales of import vehicles.
The car is now relevant to the Russian generation market produced at Gaza's capacity in Nizhny Novgorod until the end of April 2018. As a result, the manufacturer managed to accumulate the impressive warehouse reserves of Jetta, and it is reported that they are mostly designed for corporate clients who should have enough machines for at least the end of this year.
The new-oxole sedan Volkswagen Jetta in North America received only one gasoline 150-strong turbo engine with a volume of 1.4 liters, its maximum torque is 250 nm. He goes paired or with six-speed "mechanics" or with an eight-adjusted "automatic".

Compared to the predecessor, the length of Jetta increased by 43 mm (up to 4,002 mm), the width is 21 mm (up to 1,799 mm), height is 6 mm (up to 1 459 mm), and the wheel base is 35 mm ( up to 2,686 mm). The front skem is now shorter by 10 mm, the rear added 18 mm. In this case, the volume of the trunk remained the same, it is 510 liters.
Now at the GAZ Group, Skoda Octavia Liftback and Skoda Kodiaq crossover are released. Previously, the portal "Wheelter" published: the price of the Russian assembly model varies in the range from 1,339,000 to 2,014,000 rubles. For comparison: the most accessible Volkswagen Tiguan will cost customers from the Russian Federation at least 1,349,000 rubles.
