The 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Highline for buyers

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Highline; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Before buying the 2017 Volkswagen Jetta Highline, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

A buyer's checks

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

Reading the spec sheet

Its powertrain is the 1.4L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Combined fuel use is 7.2 L/100 km: about 22 litres for 300 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $111.60 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles.

Room inside

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The EPA lists 453 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

When the Jetta makes sense

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

A longer test drive

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the Jetta for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Money matters

A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.16 in fuel.

Choosing the right one

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
