TO THE POINT What’s New? The performance-oriented 2006 Volkswagen Jetta GLI gets a powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, a choice between two excellent transmissions, beefed-up suspension bits, 17-inch wheels, xenon headlights, and several important interior tweaks over the standard Jetta 2.5.
Selling Points: Excellent drivetrain and sport-tuned suspension, and attractive, well laid-out interior, a roomier back seat and perfectly sculpted race car-style steering wheel.
Deal Breakers: The driving position may not suit everyone, and the ride may be too firm for some.
Our Advice: If you’re looking for an affordable sports sedan, the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta GLI deserves your strong consideration.

The folks at Volkswagen have gone to great lengths to make the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta GLI a vehicle that sets the standard for mid-sized sport sedans. For 2006, the Volkswagen GLI has grown in proportion to comfortably seat four adults (with most of the additional space going to the rear seat passengers), gotten a powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, received an improved suspension, and sports new styling. Take all these attributes, include them in an already popular and respected vehicle like the Jetta GLI, aggressively price it, and what you get is a car that will be sought after by both VW enthusiasts and new buyers as well.
