2025 Jetta vs. 2025 Jetta GLI Differences
The 2025 Volkswagen Jetta and 2025 Volkswagen Jetta GLI have both arrived at Fifth Avenue Volkswagen, and bring sedan driving to the next level. They both feature a new look, a new attitude, and the same quality German engineering you’ve come to expect from the Volkswagen brand. But as much as these two vehicles look similar, they’re very different under the hood. Read on with the team here at Fifth Avenue Volkswagen as we take a look at what makes these two iterations of the Jetta similar, and what sets the apart.
The Jetta Twins
The Jetta and Jetta GLI look pretty similar on the outside, and they share plenty of cosmetic features across all of their available trim levels. In particular, both got a significant makeover for the 2025 model year, with a fresh front fascia, new head- and taillight designs, rear light bar, and redesigned bumpers. Both Jettas have a pleasingly updated profile overall. As for features, both are offering available heated and ventilated front seats, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto™, KESSY Keyless Access, and the advanced IQ.Drive system. The GLI gets a few distinctive design elements including badging, and an end-to-end red accent line.
Jetta Efficiency, GLI Performance
The differences between the two 2025 Jettas becomes stark when you look beneath the surface. The 2025 Jetta GLI is a performance sedan, ready to blur down the highway with incredible pickup and handling. It comes with a 2.0L turbocharged TSI engine capable of 228 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. It offers both a 7-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, or a 6-speed manual for the driver who wants total control. It also includes a mechanical limited-slip differential, high performance brakes, and progressive steering for the driver who loves the thrill of the open road. The 2025 Jetta, meanwhile, comes with an efficient 1.5L turbocharged TSI engine which is more practical for the daily commuter. What it lacks in overall sports car performance it more than makes up for in its incredible fuel economy, offering a combined estimated 6.9L/100km.
