Get to Know the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta

2016 VW Jetta at Emich Volkswagen


Emich Volkswagen, your Denver, Colorado VW dealer, has a great selection of the popular 2016 Volkswagen Jetta available for you to drive home today! The 2016 Jetta features the German engineered performance and the style that VW is so proud to offer. With a roomy interior plus many safety features, the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta is a good choice for either families or individuals looking for a fuel efficient car that offers a variety of technologies at an affordable price.

There are many different options when it comes to picking out a 2016 Volkswagen Jetta. Their trim lines vary from the S (MSRP $17,680), to the 1.8T Sport (MSRP $20,895), and even the GLI SE
2016 Volkswagen Jetta at Emich VW
(MSRP $26,920). This vehicle does not disappoint with its array of techie features that either come standard or as an available upgrade. These features include a touchscreen sound system with 5" color display, VW Car-Net® App-Connect™ for smartphones, Driver Assistance systems, and a touchscreen navigation system with 6.33" color display. Other features include a rear vision camera, push-button start, and keyless access.

The engine that a Colorado Volkswagen Jetta buyer gets depends on the which trim level of the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta is chosen. However, one thing is common throughout all of the engine options – they are all turbocharged. There are three different engine options:

* 1.4L TSI turbocharged engine (standard)

* 1.8L TSI turbocharged engine

* 2.0L TSI turbocharged engine on GLI

The turbocharged engines help the vehicle run smoother and more efficiently, thus offering impressive fuel economy. Which is why a 2016 Volkswagen Jetta driver can worry less about stopping to fill up their fuel tank and just enjoy the drive!

The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta is available with either a manual or automatic transmission. You can choose a 5-speed manual transmission or choose the 6-speed automatic transmission with TipTronic® and Sport Mode. This automatic transmission is smooth-shifting with overdrive and electronic range select. This is very beneficial in a sedan such as the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta.

Any of the trim levels of Jetta are equipped with a 4-corner independent suspension with front MacPherson struts, 4-link rear suspension, and a stabilizer bar. The suspension is fine-tuned to make every ride a smooth one. However, on some of the sportier trim levels, there is a specific sport suspension. This sport suspension includes lowered front and rear stabilizer bars for sharper handling to enhance the sporty feel.

The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta is not only built for performance, efficiency, and comfort, but also safety. The 2016 Volkswagen Jetta got a 5 out of 5-star overall NHTSA crash testing rating. This safety rating is representative of the pronounced emphasis on safety features on the 2016 VW Jetta. These features include Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning and Front Assist Emergency braking, blind spot monitor, rear traffic alert, and Park Distance Control. These are just some of the many features offered to make your ride in the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta a safe one.

Stop by Emich VW, conveniently located in Denver, Colorado, and let us tell you more about the 2016 VW Jetta.  Or better yet, take one for a test drive and see for yourself why this would be a great choice for your next vehicle.

A Message From Emich VW Regarding TDI Emissions Situation

Late in the evening on September 18th we learned that the EPA had announced that VW had lost emission certification for their 2016 2.0L TDI models. Subsequently Volkswagen admitted to cheating on emissions tests since 2009, affecting approximately 500,000 vehicles. We were and still are shocked and saddened by the news. We have recommended TDI technology to friends, family, and customers since our start in 2006. It has been a pillar of our brand and we are embarrassed for what has been exposed. As you may or may not know Volkswagen AG in Germany has hired lawyers in both Germany and the US to investigate this unlawful behavior of engineers and technicians and the CEO Dr. Martin Winterkorn has stepped down.
VW is currently working with the EPA to obtain certification of their 2016 2.0L TDI models and a solution for the 2009-2015 models already on the road. Please know they are working at full speed and we expect a solution soon. If you are driving an affected vehicle know that it is safe to drive and there are no actions necessary at this point.
For the latest information please visit www.vwdieselinfo.com
For all those affected by this deceit we offer our condolences and pledge that we will work with VW to make sure a proper resolution is delivered. While we are hurt by these events we are confident that Volkswagen will do the right thing to correct these problems. We ask for your patience in the interim while VW works with the EPA for a resolution.
Affected Vehicles:
-VW Jetta TDI (Model Years 2009 – 2015)
-VW Jetta SportWagen TDI (Model Years 2009-2014)
-VW Golf TDI (Model Years 2010-2015)
-VW Golf SportWagen TDI (Model Year 2015)
-VW Beetle TDI and VW Beetle Convertible TDI (Model Years 2012-2015)
-VW Passat TDI (Model Years 2012-2015)
