Overview & Reviews

A few changes occur on the 2007 Volkswagen Jetta. Good news for consumers: VW has lowered the car's price by an average of $1,400 without making any significant cuts in feature content. The company says the change is to foster increased competitiveness against Asian-brand sedans. On the downside, the popular diesel-fueled Jetta TDI has been discontinued due to its inability to pass new 2007 government emissions tests. Look for it to return next year. Other updates for the '07 Jetta include the return of the Wolfsburg Edition sedan (which has the 2.5-liter engine and standard leatherette upholstery), a new Apple iPod adapter, simplified cruise control actuation, a standard tire-pressure monitor and, as options, a 115-volt power outlet and Homelink transmitter. Finally, VW has renamed the base-level Value Edition trim level just "Jetta."

  Awesome Ride! - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By LarryC - December 10 - 4:13 am

  This is my 3rd VW, the first two being a Beetle and Super Beetle I bought back in 1969 and 1973. Ive forgotten how much fun VWs are to drive. This car seems quicker than the posted times with smooth as silk shifting. Brakes are going strong after 20K miles. Awesome Ride!

  Wolfsburg Edition - Best Value - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By SleepyDoc - August 15 - 11:40 am

  The Jetta Wolfsburg is similar to the 2.5 trim, but adds a sunroof, convincing faux leather seats, rear center armrest, alloy wheels, and floor mats in addition to the cold weather package. It is available in black, white, silver, and gray. Its understated exterior styling belies the quality of the interior. Its even more impressive at night. Soft touch materials are used extensively, and even if you find hard plastic, it has a solid, quality feel. The exception being the paper-like shift boot. The ride is firm yet very compliant, excellent road manners. Its acceleration is acceptable from stop, but highway passing is effortless to a flaw - watching for flashing lights is compromised by rear visibility.

  Sweet ride - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By LOLjeta - July 25 - 9:13 pm

  I have had this car for almost 3 years it has taken me all over california. We love this car. It is zippy, roomy and comfortable for long drives. The car heats up in no time, so taking it to the snow is awesome. It can also fit 3 full bicycles in the rear.

  Love it! - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By Dorene - May 8 - 4:16 pm

  I am very pleased with this purchase. Not too flashy, not too boring. Fun to drive. It comes at a bargain price with lots of features that would normally cost extra. It handles great, and feels safe and solid. I went into the whole car shopping process fully expecting to buy another Honda Civic, and this car is much better. My first VW, but probably not my last. No regrets here.

  Love My Jetta - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By Kristen - April 13 - 7:20 pm

  This is my second Jetta and I have to say that VWs to me are better than my Toyota Tacoma and Corolla put together. Thats why I went back to driving a Jetta. I also feel much safer, than in my Toyotas.

  Exactly what I wanted... - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By Nicholas - March 15 - 3:10 am

  The Jetta Wolfsburg was a welcome choice among the many configurations of the Jetta. It has just the right combination of options for the price, and is substantially less expensive than if you put the same option packages on the regular 2.5. The car is adequately responsive in the economy driving mode, but shift into the sport mode and it becomes a MUCH more powerful animal. Living in California, I find the Tiptronic to be especially useful for keeping the RPMs up for easily passing other cars on the many freeway mountain passes. While the last generation body style was more inspired, the current Jettas lack of exterior edginess is more than made up for with its SUPERIOR interior.

  Rear Brakes Poor Design - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By 20jetta07 - February 25 - 4:16 am

  The rear brakes are design to be replace (Pads + Rotors) every 15,000 miles no matter how much you use them. I use this as a commute car and I will never buy a VW again because of this issue. I like the car but I can NOT believe that VW has this problem and will not correct it. This is an on going problem from the 2000. If you hear a thud in the rear brake area you have a problem that will cost you $400.00 because you have to replace the ROTOR and PADS. This is not something on a car any brand or model.

  I love my car - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By Michael - February 18 - 7:23 pm

  I drive a lot. I have about 12000 miles on my Jetta and I only bought it in January. I went with the wolfsburg and it has everything that I wanted in a car.

  Most reliable friend I have! - 2007 Volkswagen Jetta
  By Devin Christiansen - February 11 - 1:23 am

  This is MY first VW, and my familys twelfth, so I am a little biased on my love for the car. The fit and finish is luxury level, the ride quality is (for me) close enough to my old 3- series BMW that I cant justify the added expense of the BMW anymore. The only complaint I have is the rear brakes which seems to be a common complaint here. I will say this though, having had to replace the pads nearly every oil change, I will continue to pay for that hydraulic braking system. That braking system has saved my life on LA freeways more times that I care to admit! This is one of those cases of parts bin engineering but when your parts bin is "hand-me-downs" from Porsche...

  This is not a sexy car, but it offers good service and comfort at a very favorable value. "The Peoples Car"
