Volkswagen Jetta GLI Engine Specs

Engine Performance

If you pop the hood on the 2021 VW Jetta GLI, you will find a 2.0L TSI® 4-cylinder turbocharged engine. This engine produces 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque with the standard 6-speed manual transmission. This powertrain will provide you with a supremely sporty drive on those Florida roadways.

The powertrain is also impressive in the efficiency department. With an EPA-estimated 24 city/33 highway MPG, the VW Jetta GLI will work hard to save you time by avoiding frequent visits to the gas pumps.1

The standard Drive Mode Selection feature allows you to optimize the performance of the VW sedan. This system comes with four modes to choose from: Normal, Sport, Eco, and Custom. This can be useful when choosing between an efficient drive and a sportier performance.
