What’s New on the 2027 VW Jetta?
The 2027 Jetta is a carryover mechanically—same 158-hp 1.5L turbo, same 8-speed automatic, same 40 mpg highway rating—but the value equation improved at the bottom of the range, which is where most commuters actually shop.
The S and Sport trims now include the Composition Media infotainment system, adding satellite radio, voice control, and two more speakers for six total. Satellite radio in particular earns its keep on the stretch of US-83 between Zapata and Laredo. Keyless entry with push-button start is also standard on the lower trims for 2027.
Everything else carries over: standard full LED lighting, an 8-inch digital gauge cluster, wireless App-Connect®, 2-zone automatic climate control, and the full IQ.DRIVE® driver-assist suite on every single trim—including Travel Assist, which takes real strain out of a long highway commute.
