2015 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid - Fuel economy is what you get here! Powertrain wise, the 2015 Jetta Hybrid comprises of a 1.4-litre turbocharged gas engine producing 150 horsepower, combined with a 20KW electric motor that draws power from a 220-volt, 60-cell lithiumion battery pack. Total output for the system is 177 horsepower, with 184 pound-feet of torque. With the electric motor it’s good for a consistent 114 lb-ft of torque on its own. Transmission is via a 7-speed Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) automatic Tiptronic transmission. The Jetta Hybrid’s EPA combined rating of 5.2 L/100km and a highway number of 4.9 L/100km is an obvious benefit of this power plant. Inside the Jetta Hybrid is as comfortable as its other siblings in the lineup with good seats and the trademark decent ergonomics and high quality. The dash information screens display the hybrid system’s current state, and the tachometer is replaced by a meter that shows whether the powertrain is in “charge,”

By Veeno Dewan “eco,” “power” or “boost” state. Using the “E-Mode” optimizes the powertrain for low-speed, electric-only driving handy in low speed traffic crawling where you will be using no gas at all! On the road the Hybrid feels faster and more responsive and quicker than its hybrid competition and seems as fast as the base gasoline engined 2.5-litre five-cylinder equipped Jetta.

2015 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid

OFF FOR QUALIFIED RETAIL CUSTOMERS^

GET A LOT FOR A LITTLE! 2015 OUTLANDER SE AWC

On starting - the electric motor can enable the car to function in fully electric mode, when fully charged and according to load to accelerate up to 60 km/h or 70 km/h when one programs the more fuel efficient “E-Mode” function. Note; this is for a short time until the gas motor kicks in when the computer determines and smoothly transition the car to all- gas mode. The smooth-shifting, seven-speed DSG gearbox is a stand out, providing seamless transitions for easy glitch free cruising. The Hybrid only comes with an automatic transmission.

In comparison to fuel efficiency versus the price of a gas engined Jetta, the Hybrid has the edge, but will take longer to pay off the higher price difference in terms fuel saved. With highway economy ratings of 5.5 L/100km for the TDI and 4.9 L/100km for the Hybrid it is fair choice, Either way you get a car that will outlast most of its rivals in the years to come.

Steering is light and responsive enough, but not as sporty as the GLI model. The 2015 Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid’s ride is comfortable and quiet at speed. It is ultimately a nice, relaxing car to drive like all the Jetta models with no vices in particular. Note one feature about hybrid is the way the brakes operate and the Jetta hybrid is no different in this regard. Regenerative brakes use hydraulics and electric-motor resistance to slow the car so generating power that goes back to the battery. However a tradeoff is that the brakes can feel slow and disconnected. The Jetta’s brakes are powerful enough and one need to become adjusted and use foot pedal pressure in a different way to get the hang of when and how to apply them.
