Volkswagen Jetta TDI Sportwagen: Less Is More
Just
because the Jetta TDI Sportwagen is smaller than what you’re driving
now, doesn’t mean you’ll end up feeling short-changed come vacation
time. On the contrary, the Jetta’s remarkably quiet interior
offers comfortable seating for four, and features top-quality materials
that put many more expensive vehicles to shame. What sets the
Sportwagen apart from its sedan sibling, however, is the roadtrip-ready
cargo area with 33 cubic feet of space behind the rear seats. Fold
those seatbacks down and you’ll end up with more than enough room for a
traveling companion who doesn’t really understand the meaning of
packing light.
