If there's a more entertaining, satisfying, easy-to-drive small car than the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta, one that also can match Jetta's high-class feel inside ... well, there isn't one in the same price range.
Jetta has some of the delightful personality of the Audi A3 (Test Drive, July 29). No surprise. Audi is VW's luxury brand, and the A3 uses hardware similar to Jetta's, though the Audi looks different and is priced higher.
Jetta is the best-selling VW in the USA. No small matter, then, when it's redesigned. Jetta was enlarged, given a standard five-cylinder engine, instead of four-cylinder, and graced with sweeping style that resembles the larger,
pricier, also recently redesigned VW Passat.
