If the Volkswagen Golf’s hatchback frame is a little too restrictive from a pure size perspective, then VW has you covered with the Jetta. The model is essentially a Golf, but with the hatchback removed and a sedan-style trunk section added, which adds a bit of extra length to the vehicle. The Jetta remains a staple of VW’s lineup in the US as of 2025, especially as the standard Golf model isn’t offered across the Atlantic, with only the performance-focused GTI and R variants available.
