AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/25 Report--

After many post-90s who have accompanied us to learn to drive, Jetta has also become a loyal mule for many taxi drivers, the leather is durable, and easy repair has always made this car a familiar model for the Chinese people. it is even said in some conversations in life that he drives a Volkswagen (Jetta), which shows that Jetta makes Volkswagen go deep into the hearts of the people.

Since Volkswagen handed over the second-generation Jetta (jettaA2) to FAW-Volkswagen in 1991, the first Jetta came off the line in Changchun on December 5 of the same year. With affordable price and excellent quality, this hatchback originally born in golf soon sold more than 1 million units in China, winning an excellent reputation in China.

Since then, the second generation of Jetta has been produced in China through continuous minor changes, serving different people, from public security, administrative organs, enterprises, and the taxi industry. Jetta has been sewing and mending in China for another three years until 2010.

Just at this year's Shanghai Auto Show, Volkswagen announced the launch of a new low-cost brand: Jetta, Jetta officially ended its history as a model in China and started a new history as a brand.

SAIC successfully joined hands with Skoda, a cheap brand owned by Volkswagen in 2006, and became another affordable brand of SAIC-Volkswagen, but in fact, Skoda's sales no longer exceeded the threshold of 300000 vehicles in 17 to 18 years. Skoda, as a cheap brand of Volkswagen in Europe, has a 30 per cent price difference between its models and Volkswagen's models of the same level. However, the prices of Skoda models in the Chinese market overlap with those of Volkswagen models of the same class, such as the official guiding price of Passat from 18 to 280000, while Skoda's speed pie ranges from 150000 to 250000. Speedman also has an optional 1.8t engine more than Passat.

Jetta, a cheap brand of FAW-Volkswagen, has a total of three models, VA3,VS5,VS7, with relatively few models, but the prices range from cars under 100000 and suv under 150000, while Jetta's VA3 is no different from Jetta using the PQ25 platform from the published photos, only the logo has been changed and peeled. While VS5 and Volkswagen's exploratory songs belong to the same platform product. VS5 and Tuguan have the same platform. It's just that the price is lower than two. In other words, it is packaged with an old Jetta plus two entry-level SUV under the Jetta brand.

I hope that the Jetta, who was born and raised in the future, will not come to China like his distant relative Skoda, who has a history of 100 years, but still has the breath of aristocracy and refuses to bow, so that he is really like the familiar and cordial national car model that people recall.
