VOLKSWAGEN’S new Jetta range – essentially a booted Golf – will cost from £14,635 when it goes on sale in February.

There is a choice of five engines: 1.6 and 2.0 FSI petrols with 113bhp and 147bhp respectively, and the turbocharged 2.0 FSI with 197bhp unit, as found in the Golf GTI.

Two diesels will be available – a 1.9 TDI with 103bhp and a 2.0 TDI with 138bhp. Spec levels echo the Golf’s S, SE and Sport. The clutchless manual DSG gearbox is also available.
