Celebrating 40 Years: The Iconic Volkswagen Jetta GLI

A legend spanning four decades, the Volkswagen Jetta GLI has left an indelible mark on the automotive world. Back in 1984, it graced American roads, offering the potent GTI powertrain in a sleek sedan body. Now, in 2024, the 40th Anniversary Edition is set to amaze with a limited run of only 1,984 units.

With a starting price of $29,235 (excluding the $1,150 destination fee), this special edition comes in Pure Gray, Pure White, and Rising Blue, adorned with striking black trim and captivating red accents.

Inside, the celebration continues with stylish cloth seats, featuring asymmetrical debossed sections and striking red piping. The "GLI 40" tag on the chairs and the "40" logo on the steering wheel add a sense of exclusivity.

Beneath the hood lies the heart of the beast – a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, delivering an exhilarating 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Choose between a six-speed manual or a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox for the ultimate driving experience.

The journey through time reminds us of the GLI's origins, starting with a modest 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine back in 1984. Yet, it quickly evolved, boasting 123 horsepower in a 1988 version.

After a brief hiatus, the GLI returned stronger than ever, sharing engines with the revered GTI hatchback, solidifying its legacy as a true sport sedan.

As we celebrate 40 remarkable years, the Volkswagen Jetta GLI continues to enchant drivers, combining power, elegance, and driving pleasure in one captivating package.
