![]() Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane).Active blind-spot monitor (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot and can add steering assistance to discourage a lane change).It adds to the car's standard driver aids with: Volkswagen offers an affordable IQ.Drive package for the S trim models with the automatic transmission. Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios).Blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert (warns you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse).The S also comes with standard advanced driver aids that include: Volkswagen Car-Net mobile app with remote start, door locking/unlocking, parked location finder and other functions.Digital instrument cluster (8-inch display).Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.The Jetta line kicks off with this basic model and this equipment: The changes are unlikely to help vault the Jetta to the top of our small sedan rankings, but they will undoubtedly improve upon the car's core attributes of space, no-nonsense style and technology. But it's also not a car that makes you think, "Wow, I've got to have one of those!" Volkswagen seems to have done right with the 2022 Jetta. The current-generation Jetta debuted for the 2019 model year and since then we've commented favorably on the Jetta's Audi-like styling and generally sensible demeanor. Notably, the top-line Jetta SEL now has wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which means you can integrate many of your phone's apps onto the touchscreen without having to use a USB cord. A few assist features, such as traffic-adaptive cruise control, are still optional for the S, but VW makes them standard starting with the midrange SE trim. A small digital gauge cluster is standard on the S trim too. Now even the base S trim has advanced driver aids such as forward collision mitigation and blind-spot monitoring. You'll also get more standard technology features on the 2022 Jetta. The 2022 Jetta gets a turbocharged 1.5-liter engine good for 158 hp, and the hope is that it'll quicken the pace a little. ![]() For comparison, a new Civic we tested, with its optional turbocharged engine, reached 60 mph a half-second quicker. At Edmunds' test track, we clocked a Jetta from 0 to 60 mph in 8.4 seconds. That's a decent output for a small sedan, but it results in unremarkable acceleration. Last year's Jetta had a turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine good for 147 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. ![]()
