Save the Manuals Save the SEDANS!! | 2023 VW Jetta Highline Review

We take a look at the facts, feels and final thoughts of the 2023 VW Jetta Highline auto and go over the 6speed manual!
Whether you're into cars or not, most know the Jetta name to be synonymous with VW yet we see less and less each year. And that's because it is being swallowed up by the Sea of SUVs along with so many others we've lost and miss.
People are under the marketing spell that CUVs are so much bigger and more practical, but now-a-days compact cars like the Jetta have gotten so big I don't think there is enough of a space gain to make up for the loss of fun (but I'm a grown man that drives a BRZ so what do I know)!
We give you the quick facts upfront, test out how they feel and then give you our final thoughts.
*Please note that I am human and could be wrong on some of my “facts”, but still they give a good idea if considering the vehicle in your shopping.
I've borrowed this vehicle from Leavens VW of London Ontario

Thanks for the review! Excellent work.
Excellent review! We bought a 22 Highline for running estimates on Vancouver Island. In Eco mode we averaged 4.9L/100km after about a couple of months. Then we experienced even lower fuel economy. Our lowest was 4.1 L/100km over a 90km trip! The grade was very flat and we had two adults in the Jetta. Simply outstanding!

only a couple items on my problem list on these cars is A. the direct injection only engines, the build up over time on the valves, but also if the highlines are all like that.. no physical buttons on the infotainment.. then again I drive a Scat Pack Challenger all year round so lol.

Ha! I drive BRZ year round lol. I don't know if you saw but I got to review a Scat Pack last year and loved it! Very cool car. Enjoy
I guess in Canada the hockey stick fit is more important than knowing if this car comes with a spare tire

According to the dealer, the Comfortline and Highline come with a “space and weight saving” 18” spare, but the Trendline (base) does not.

Hey.. thanks for reviewing VW Jetta. Actually I’m planning to buy new car and I’m bit confused between new Honda City touring 2023 or VW Jetta Highline 2023 model. It would be of great help if you guide me which car should I bus. Or make comparison video of these two car so that we can get to know which car is best car
@Neutralreviews

No problem! Thank you:) Good question. I’ve never driven the City. Don’t believe we have them in Canada. Generally I really like Honda. I’m a VW owner (Golf) and like it because of how well built and luxurious they feel for the money but Honda is known for efficiency and economy. That said the Jetta is good on gas for the size of car. Wish I could be more help!

@@abhijitwalunjkar6539 I have a request at the Honda dealer for a new Civic so hopefully they can get me one to review. Unfortunately, all the dealers here only loan my demos/testers which is usually a top end SUV. I’m ironically struggling to get content even though we got monetized and avg 10-15k per new car review. I will definitely do a Civic if I can get one. Everything I read and hear about it is extremely positive! Thanks again
Great car, great value!

The thought of driving an automatic Jetta forget it

It saddens me that people don’t realize what they are missing when they drive an automatic in a car that!
I bought a 23 Comfortline Sprot manual because I wanted a manual, and it is lacking a lot of features that Highline has. Like blindspot detection, parking sensors, navigation. I can live without those features however the biggest disappointment is that there is no USB ports in the back and no vents at the back of the centre console (there are vents under the seat. When I test drove the 22 (they didn't have the 23 on the lot) I failed to notice that. I guess that is on me. Having seen the chinese version of the Jetta (Sagitar) it comes with that plus folding mirrors and a 10 inch stereo. I guess in a few year once these parts become available on the parts markets in China I will try and retrofit those features.

Really hoping the blindspot and lane assist can be retrofitted post purchase on that particular trim, as the removal was just due to chip shortage deletion
Wondering why there is an absorbent amount of Canadian-based car reviewers on YT.

Not sure what this means lol… Do you not like Canadian car reviews?? Either way, if you live in Canada that’s because of new content laws. In all honesty, if you are complaining, and you are Canadian, you can instead support us and help make the content better. Canadian reviewers don’t have the same access to vehicles or financial backing. I’m by myself and spend my own time and money. I have a normal job and am learning. It’s not as easy as you think. We didn’t ask for this law or are trying to irritate Canadian viewers looking for their favourite American or European review shows. YT warned the government that this would ultimately hurt us because frustrated viewers will take it out on us by giving negative comments, not watching all the way through or not liking. So if you are Canadian, support your reviewers in any way you can and help put us on the Map! Let’s make our smaller reviewers something we can all be proud of supporting!! Thanks for watching and commenting😊
jetta has a timing belt instead of a timing chain no excuse for this fact. too risky with a timing belt when it snaps and it will snap some point and you have major engine damage. no excuse for any car company using timing belts anymore as their cost savings do not outweigh the costly risks of engine damage.
