The all-new Volkswagen Jetta is a delectable dish of European-bred automotive technology, superior materials and tangibly good build quality. This new Jetta is both a comfortable long-range cruiser and a snappy runabout.
The Jetta is available with a choice of three engines. It comes standard with a 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine rated at 150 horsepower. The base model is also available as a Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle that uses a version of the 2.5-liter five-cylinder that emits almost no pollution. Also available is VW's highly regarded 1.9-liter TDI turbodiesel four-cylinder engine in 45 states. The GLI comes with a new 2.0-liter turbocharged engine boasting an output of 200 horsepower. Safety features that come standard on all models include front airbags, side-impact airbags for torso protection, and curtain airbags for head protection come standard along with crash-active front headrests and safety belts with emergency locking retractors for all five seating positions. Rear side airbags are optional. Active safety features include anti-lock disc brakes with electronic brake-force distribution, traction control, and an electronic differential lock. Electronic stability control is standard on all but the Value Edition and comes with hydraulic brake assist.
For 2006, the Volkswagen Jetta has been completely redesigned.
Purchasing an older vehicle, such as the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta, makes good financial sense. You're able to avoid the steep depreciation rates that occur with brand new vehicles. This essentially gives you the advantage of getting a 2006 Volkswagen Jetta for less money than when it was new. If the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.
The amount you pay for an older car depends on various factors. One important element is where you buy the vehicle. You're likely to get a better deal if you buy it from a private party, as opposed to a dealer. On the other hand, a reputable dealer will normally have some kind of limited warranty, so you can drive away knowing that if the car breaks down right away, you'll be covered. Another factor that may affect price on a 2006 Volkswagen Jetta is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer. A certified vehicle will cost more because warranty service is provided that normally doesn't come with a used car.
Another dynamic that will play into the purchase price is the resale value. A used vehicle with a high resale value will obviously cost you more. It is expected that the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta will have a good resale value. This assumes that the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta is in good condition and has a reasonable number of miles.
