However, German automaker Volkswagen saw it fit to update its bestselling car in North America to keep it fresh among its Civic, Elantra, and Corolla peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2025 Jetta is not a radical departure from the outgoing vehicle. It still rides on a seventh-gen MQB architecture that entered the market in 2019, but there are enough changes to merit a second look. There are new upper and lower front grille designs, slim-type LED headlights, a new rear lightbar, and an available front light bar for Jetta Sport variants and higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jetta SE has new 17-inch alloy wheels, while the Jetta SEL and GLI have updated 18-inch wheel designs. Furthermore, Volkswagen will offer black-wheel packages for the Jetta SE and GLI. The 2025 Jetta will arrive at dealerships in two new paint colors: Monument Gray and Monterey Blue Pearl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=_-19.html><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" src=_-19.html alt=\"2025 VW Jetta.\" class=\"wp-image-463239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-550x367.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-623x415.jpg 623w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-525x350.jpg 525w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-293x195.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.automoblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2025-VW-Jetta-22-1400x933.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Volkswagen of America, Inc.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2025 Volkswagen Jetta Powertrain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are no changes under the hood for the 2025 VW Jetta.
