Jetta GLI Interior Features
The cabin of the Jetta GLI benefits from a lot of new additions. Staring with the new MIB 2 infotainment system, it will help the passengers stay connected. The SE trim is abundantly fitted with special interior features.
Take for instance the LED tail-lights, Keyless access with push-button start, Climatronic automatic dual-zone climate control, the sunroof, six-way power driver seat, a rearview camera, front and rear Park Distance Control, Fender Premium Audio System, rain sensing wipers, auto headlights, and heated seats.
Volkswagen Jetta GLI from the SEL trim will add even more: Blind Spot Detection with rear traffic alert, a navigation system, Bi-Xenon headlights with the Adaptive Front-lighting System (AFS), and Homelink.
Furthermore, as a standard all Jetta GLIs are getting the Automatic Post-Collision Braking system. The system applies the brakes when the airbag sensors detect collision. This helps reduce residual kinetic energy and therefore the chance of additional damage.
