2019 VW Jetta GLI Review
The long-anticipated 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI has officially made it to dealers like our partner in the Los Angeles suburb of Ontario, CA – Ontario Volkswagen. And we took it for a test drive to bring you this in-depth 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Review.
The GLI is the enthusiasts, sporty model, of the Jetta. Volkswagen updated its standard line of Jetta’s in the previous year. So, with these 2019 models, Volkswagen marks the 7th generation of GLIs and Jettas. And actually, in VW-lingo that’s ‘Mark 7 or Mk7.’
2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Top-3
My friends at Ontario VW gave me a Jetta GLI for a day recently.
Here’s my complete report after running around Southern California’s Inland Empire and getting a feel for the all-new 2019 VW Jetta GLI!
May 7, 2019
The Volkswagen Jetta GLI has historically been compared to its VW hatchback (hot hatch in VW-lingo) sibling the Golf GTI. Why?
Well, they’re both Volkswagens and both the sporty/enthusiasts trims of their respective models. Personally, I like both for different reasons. I’ll contrast the two vehicles, only once, in a moment.

With the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI being in its 7th generation that equates to 35-years here in the United States.
And those 35-years are honored in one of the trim options for the 2019 VW Jetta GLI. And, it just so happens that, my test-driver was a 35th Anniversary Edition GLI.
So here’s the cool comparison I’m going to give the 2019 VW Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary Edition and the 2019 Golf GTI Rabbit Edition.
Volkswagen’s stylish, yet in-the-know and subtle seat tags.

Okay, one other comparison, with the GTI and the GLI both being the sporty trims, is the very cool red line across the grills of both vehicles.

It’s in all sorts of pics. BTW, wondering what GTI and GLI stand for?

Those are acronyms for Grand Touring Injection and Grand Luxury Injection.
2019 VW Golf GTI badge
So to put the comparisons of the Jetta GLI and the Golf GTI to rest, at least for this post, the Golf is going to be sportier and a hatchback.
Whereas the Jetta GLI is a sedan and slightly less aggressive.
The ’19 VW Jetta GLI is offered in three different trims.
As always, don’t worry about the MSRP – manufacturer’s suggested retail price – for two reasons. First, you need to get your ’19 VW Jetta GLI equipped to your specifications.
And more importantly, go see my friends at Ontario Volkswagen. Beyond putting you in the car you want and at the best price, they’re not going to play any of the old school (or new school!) games.
2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary front
The guys and gals at Ontario Volkswagen are my friends and I’m happy to personally introduce you. Just email me tom [at] idrivesocal [dot] com.
Volkswagen’s 2019 Jetta GLI comes with the same engine across all three trims.
That’s a 2-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that puts out 228-horsepower with 258 lb-ft of torque.
2019 VW Jetta GLI 35 passenger profile
The ’19 Jetta GLI comes standard with a 6-speed manual transmission. And I love driving manual on open roads and low-traffic conditions.
Of course, here in Southern California, we’re hardpressed to find either of those settings. So the optional 7-speed automatic transmission is probably the way to go.
2019 VW Jetta GLI 35 Ontario VW plate
My test driver hand the automatic transmission option and it’s Tiptronic shifting offered the fun and control of manual while delivering the convenience of automatic.
What’s even better are the paddle shifters. Even in normal drive mode, I spun the tires with the paddles. In sport mode, you can easily smoke the rubber.

And with the 2019 VW Jetta GLI still being a Volkswagen, great fuel economy comes standard. All the trims and engines are rated the same at 25-miles-per-gallon in the city and 32-miles-per-gallon on the highway.
Like usual, the Ontario Volkswagen team set me up in a gorgeous, well-equipped test driver. The 35th Anniversary Edition is super-eye-catching, especially in the Pure Gray color they gave me.
But really, you can’t go wrong with any of the colors, (red, white, black, gray, & silver) VW offers for the ’19 Jetta GLI. All of them look fantastic with the red highlighted GLI badging.

Another nod to the 35th Anniversary Edition, in addition to the seat tags mentioned above, is the exterior badging on both sides of the Jetta GLI.
2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35 5-spoke wheel
And the 18″ 5-spoke gray-painted wheels, on the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary Edition, with red accents, looked great especially with the red brake calipers visible.
Driving the enthusiasts’ version of the 2019 Jetta was a blast. Exactly as, I’m sure, Volkswagen intended. The GLI is quick. From a dead stop, you can really feel the torque.
And that goes the same for when you’re on the highway and want to pass someone. In both cases, it also sounds great when doing so! Even more so in the Sport mode when the GLI gets a little ‘throaty.’

My test driver, the 35th Anniversary Edition, also had Volkswagen’s Dynamic Chasis Control (DCC) giving it a very sure-footed and stable feel when handling at any speed.
2019 VW Jetta GLI 35 driver profile
So, between the power and enhanced ability to handle it the ’19 VW Jett GLI delivers a whole lot of fun starting at under $30k. And again, that’s just MSRP, go see my friends at Ontario VW for the best deal you’ll find.
The 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI is distinctive and sharp in its styling. LED headlines and daytime running lights lend further accent to the great design lines and the red GLI accent line that screams performance.

Black painted side mirrors and a thin rear spoiler are nice additional touches.
Chrome exhaust tips and LED taillights give the Jetta GLI a look that’s every bit equal to its performance.
2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35 passenger rear
And the 2019 VW Jetta GLI is a little more than half-an-inch lower than the regular Jetta. And the 5-spoke rims with red accents and brake calipers are worth restating here – very sporty yet stylish.
Moving inside the 7th generation VW Jetta GLI you have a handsome cockpit and dash with an awesome flat-bottom steering wheel.

The 35th Anniversary Edition comes with cloth interior and heated front seats.
If you step up to the Autobahn you get leather and both heated and ventilated front seats – a favorite feature of Mr. and Mrs. Smith’s. :0)
2019 VW Jetta GLI stainless steel pedals
The 35th Anniversary did have the stainless steel pedal covers – which adds another great looking dimension to the inside.
’19 VW Jetta GLI 35 backseat child safety seat latches
And I have to point out the awesome accessibility of the child safety seat latches in the backseat.
This is another favorite feature of mine that VW brings to its vehicles.
’19 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35 backseat
There’s plenty of human-space throughout the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI – just like the regular Jetta.
And while there’s ample trunk cargo-space as well VW engineering takes the Jetta’s versatility to the next level.
’19 VW Jetta GLI 35 trunk
The trunk turns into a huge cavern by dropping the backseats.
’19 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35 trunk w. both backseats down
By allowing both backseats to fold way-down there’s a huge access-point between the trunk and the interior of the vehicle’s backseat area.
The 35th Anniversary Edition I test drove didn’t have Volkswagen’s new digital cockpit. But that is an available option that I’d probably add on to my purchase.
It goes nicely with the 10-color interior accent lighting. Since my test drive was during the day I didn’t get any pictures of that but it gives the Jetta GLI a very classy look in the evening.
2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI 35th Anniversary Edition dashboard
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto play key roles in the technology stack in the 2019 Volkswagen Jetta GLI.
And the touch-screen interface with dials brings all the tech to your fingertips in a very user-friendly and intuitive way.

And while Volkswagen adds the Fender brand name to its SUVs (Tiguan and Atlas), the ’19 VW Jetta GLI gets boosted in the audio department by the beats name brand!
The ’19 Jetta GLI delivers some of VW’s top driver assistance tech features to help keep you safe on the roads.
“The ’19 Jetta GLI delivers some of VW’s top driver assistance tech features to help keep you safe on the roads.”
Blind Spot Monitoring will alert you to vehicles you can’t see when changing lanes. Front assist will audibly alert you of potential front-end collisions.
And Rear Traffic Alert keeps you in the know when backing up. It can even brake for you to avoid accidents.
VW describes it’s ‘The People First Warranty’ as America’s Best Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty and it’s rather tough to dispute.
“The People First Warranty… 6-Years/72,000-miles and the fact that it’s transferable too is impressive.”
6-Years/72,000-miles and the fact that it’s transferable too is impressive. That definitely delivers extra peace of mind – especially if you’re buying rather than leasing.
If the 2019 VW Jetta GLI or any Volkswagen is of interest to you then you have to connect with my friends at Ontario Volkswagen.

In this 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan review, we take a look at VW’s new compact SUV that’s as stylish as it is big! So big that VW even offers up the option for the third row of seating. And so stylish that many find it more appealing than Volkswagen’s former Toureg model.
Additionally, this second-generation Tiguan comes in a trim level to suit every driver’s needs. Even offering up the sporty R-Line package!
2019 VW Tiguan Top-3:
1. Exterior Styling
We picked up a 2019 VW Tiguan to review from our friends at Ontario Volkswagen for a recent fun day of driving Southern California. Click play below to hear the complete details in our podcast or you can continue reading below and check out the pictures from our test drive.
2019 Volkswagen Tiguan Review
April 24, 2019
Clinton “The Professor” Quan: This is one of the biggest compact, crossovers on the market. That extra third row, it’s a nice feature to have.
This is one of the most attractive compact crossovers out there. I’m a huge fan of the interior as well. It’s got plenty of torque, plenty of pick up, very, very smooth.
“We’re looking at about 22-city, 29-highway… that’s solid for a vehicle this big, because this is one of the biggest compact, crossovers on the market.”
Tom: Welcome to iDriveSoCal the Podcast, all about mobility from the automotive capital of the United States, Southern California. Tom Smith here with the good Professor, Mr. Clinton Quan. Say hello Clinton.
Bold new Tiguan!
Professor: Hey Tom.
Tom: Hello my friend. This podcast is a vehicle review, the good Professor, Mr. Quan went on out to our friends at Ontario Volkswagen in the Los Angeles suburb of Ontario, California, just off the 15 there and he picked himself up a Volkswagen Tiguan.
And I’ve been eyeballing that Tiguan I tell you. I recently drove the Atlas and obviously the Tiguan is the Atlas’s smaller sibling, but I’ve seen a Tiguan sitting next to a Touareg and we talked about this a little bit. A lot of people love the Touareg. The Touareg’s no longer, but it’s still an awesome truck.
But the Tiguan looks just about as big as the Touareg when you’re looking at them side by side from the rear. Now I know they’re not. I know that the Touareg’s still a little bigger.
Tiguan design is reminiscent of Touareg
Professor: Just a little bit bigger.
Tom: Yeah, but we were talking and I don’t think you looked this up, I didn’t look it up.
I’ll bet with the enhanced engineering technology as far as the interior goes, that the current Tiguan has more interior people and cargo space than the past Touareg.
Professor: I wouldn’t be surprised.
“…the new Tiguan is so much bigger. It’s a little over a foot longer than the previous Tiguan.”
Tom: Probably just a little bit of trivia, but nevertheless, to kind of bridge the gap of Volkswagen before and Volkswagen now.
Professor: And that’s I think another reason why the Touareg was discontinued because the new Tiguan is so much bigger. It’s a little over a foot longer than the previous Tiguan.
Tom: Yeah, it’s a much bigger vehicle. So at any rate, out to Ontario Volkswagen, picked up the Tiguan…
Thanks to our partners at Ontario Volkswagen, Mr. Earl Reed, General Manager, Randy Halcomb, our go-to guy, Shant Bashian, General Sales Manager, Jim Straley, Service Director, love everybody at Ontario Volkswagen.
For all your Volkswagen needs, head on out to Ontario Volkswagen, just off the 15, in the Los Angeles suburb of Ontario, California.
That being said, Professor, take it away.
Professor: Yes, I drove the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan, SEL Premium which is one of the top-of-the-line trims in the Tiguan family.
There’s let’s see, six different trims, well if you include all the different… if you include the four motion trims, then you’re really looking at probably like nine or ten different trims.
Tom: They have something for everybody the way that they section off all of the various trims. So let’s go base to tippity-top and all the variations as you can, off the top of your head.
*Don’t worry about MSRP – go see my friends at Ontario VW!
Professor: Got it. So, for our 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan review, we’re gonna start off with the base trim which is the S, and that starts off at about $24000.
Then you move up to the SE and that goes for about $27000 and both of those have the analog cockpit. From there you move up to the SEL which has the digital cockpit and that runs for about $32000.
Then, there is an SEL R-Line and that runs for about $34000. And so, all of these first four trims that I mention, they also have a 4-Motion option.
Stylish from every angle!
Tom: Option. And 4Motion is their all-wheel drive.
Professor: It’s their all-wheel drive. It’s like Audi’s Quattro. And that’ll add about $1300 to each of the trims that I just mentioned.
Then you go up to the SEL Premium and that comes standard with four motion and that runs for about $37000 and then the very, very top of the line is the SEL Premium R-Line and that goes for about $39000.
Tom: Now the R-Line is basically an aesthetic sports package, meaning it’s badging on the outside and in, but it looks nice.
Professor: It looks really nice, especially with those larger rims. You’ll get the 19 or the 20-inch rims with that.
Tom: Yeah, I like the R-Lines.
‘…4Motion is Volkswagen’s all-wheel drive. Like Audi’s Quattro.’
Professor: Yeah, the R-Line looked fantastic during our 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan review. I really, really like the R-Line.
Tom: So it’s just the two top trims that come with four motion, standard?
Optional 3rd Row VW Tiguan
Professor: Standard equipment, yeah. You wouldn’t be able to get that without the 4Motion. All the other trims that I mentioned previously, you can get it without the 4Motion.
Tom: You can get in two-wheel drive and that two-wheel drive’s gonna be front-wheel drive.
Professor: Yes, correct. It’ll be front-wheel drive.
Tom: But you know hey, for 1,300 bucks, might as well get it I think right?
Professor: Yes. Well, a lot of people, especially in California, they don’t really need it and most people who buy crossovers and SUVs now, they don’t get the all-wheel drive.
You get a little bit of weight savings with that.
“The first one doesn’t even come close to this one, absolutely, exponentially better.”
Tom: You get a little bit of weight savings and you’re a little bit worse off in fuel economy which I want to get to in just a second, but to your point, because you always mention that, in L.A. don’t really need it and I agree.
My first four-wheel-drive vehicle, SUV, in L.A., I had for six years and I took off the road a total of zero times. However, being from the Midwest, now the present company excluded, you can drive. There’s a lot of Southern Californians who can’t or not very well. My beautiful wife… I won’t even go any further.
2019 VW Tiguan passenger profileBut so, with that in mind and the rainy season and the very poor drainage that we have on the roads, for 1300 bucks and not a big difference in fuel economy, getting that four-motion, all-wheel drive, not a terrible idea for some people.
“…the Tiguan does have available third-row seating. That’s big.”
Not a terrible idea. It’s going to give you better control of the road, significantly more surefootedness in certainly gravel situations, loose terrain, but especially the rainy, wet season, which we just had a heck of a one here.
Professor: Yeah, we had a big wet… pretty big rainy season.
Tom: I just wanted to note that. But now getting back on track, fuel economy, what are we looking at?
Professor: We’re looking at about 22-city, 29-highway.
“We’re looking at about 22-city, 29-highway.”
Tom: Okay, that’s solid.
Professor: Yeah, that’s solid for a vehicle this big, because this is one of the biggest compact, crossovers on the market.
Probably the biggest one on the market among the compact crossovers. It even has available third-row seating on certain-
Tom: That’s right, the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan does have available third-row seating. That’s big.
Professor: That’s big too.
“It’s very well proportioned. I think it looks great from every angle, whether you’re looking at the front, the side, the back…”
Tom: That’s a big plus.
Professor: That’s a big plus for a lot of families who want that extra third row when maybe they’ll need it once every few weeks or so or once a month but it’s a nice feature to have.
Tom: Yeah. Next, the outside. Take us around. What do we see?
Professor: Well I think the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan is one of the most attractive compact crossovers out there.
Tom: Agreed.
Professor: I love the clean, modern, contemporary design.
2019 VW Tiguan driver rear
It’s very well proportioned. I think it looks great from every angle, whether you’re looking at the front, the side, the back, the three-quarter front or the three-quarter rear.
I don’t think there’s a bad angle on this vehicle.
Tom: Agreed, 100%.
Professor: Big fan of the design.
Tom: The Tiguan, this is the second generation, is it not?
Professor: Yes.
Tom: Okay and I think this generation looks exponentially better than the first generation.
Professor: Oh, it blows away the first generation. It’s night and day.
The first one doesn’t even come close to this one, absolutely, exponentially better.
Tom: Inside?
Professor: The inside. I’m a huge fan of the interior as well. While reviewing the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan I really liked what they’ve done with the interior. How the center stack, it’s angled towards the driver. You know-
Tom: You love that.
Professor: How I’m a big fan of that. So it’s got that big screen.
2019 VW Tiguan backseat
This one had the virtual cockpit as we mentioned earlier. The upper trims have that and it’s got really clean crisp graphics.
I wasn’t necessarily a big fan of this when I first saw it on a number of vehicles but after seeing this in the VW, I was very, very impressed.
And all of the buttons, the controls, switches, they’re all right there at your fingertips. So it’s got excellent ergonomics and there’s plenty of space.
It looks almost like an Audi inside, especially the top of the line trims.
“…all of the buttons, the controls, switches, they’re all right there at your fingertips. So it’s got excellent ergonomics and there’s plenty of space.”
Tom: Yeah, Volkswagen, there you go.
Professor: And during my 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan review I loved the massive moon roof as well. Gives it-
Tom: That is big right?
Professor: It gives it a… it makes it feel a lot more spacious inside.
Tom: So, 2019 VW Tiguan technology. We already touched on it a couple of times, but the digital cockpit. That is a big thing for Volkswagen.
I think it’s not only a big thing for Volkswagen, I think it’s gonna be a big thing for everybody in the not so distant future.
2019 Volkswagen Tiguan cockpit
I think Volkswagen’s ahead of the curve on the digital dash, especially as more vehicles become hybrids and more vehicles become certainly electrics. The digital dash is just going to be I think, the norm.
Professor: Yeah, you’re seeing that in a lot of the luxury vehicles.
So, you’re definitely going to see that in the non-luxury vehicles coming up.
“…I really like what they’ve done with the interior. How the center stack, it’s angled towards the driver.”
And, I’m trying to think of another compact crossover in this segment that has a digital cockpit and I can’t think of anyone off the top of my head.
I believe this is the only one in its class that has that digital cockpit.
Tom: The only non-luxury. I can’t think of any.
Professor: Yeah, nothing. I can’t think of anything… nothing that comes to mind right now.
Tom: And before the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan review, I kept on telling you, let’s call it the right thing. Is its digital cockpit, and then I just started calling it digital dash, didn’t I? Perfect. Good job Tom.
To explain what the digital cockpit does is, I mean, it’s exactly what it sounds like. But instead of the two big circular gauges that you would have.
Professor: Tachometer and speedometer.
Tom: Right for your RPMs and your miles per hour. Instead of those, it’s a digital screen in either scenario and highly configurable.
“…this is the only one in its class that has that digital cockpit.”
Professor: That’s a big advantage right there.
Tom: Now we don’t have anybody in the Audi space that we work with or Porsche, but those are both in the Volkswagen family upstream.
Professor: Yes.
Tom: Are they big in digital cockpits right now already?
Professor: Oh yeah. Audi’s definitely doing it.
Tom: So, they’ve already been there, done that.
Volkswagen Tiguan Digital Cockpit
Professor: Yeah, that’s why it’s coming down to the Volkswagen vehicles.
Tom: That makes sense, that makes sense.
Professor: Yeah, if you look at the A8, A7, A6-
Tom: And they’ve been doing it for a while?
Professor: More recently in the past several years. Yeah, the Q5. So the Q5 is the compact crossover from Audi. Very similar in size to the Tiguan.
Tom: All right. How’d it drive?
Professor: Oh, it drives great. It’s got, I don’t think we mentioned the engine. It’s got a 2.0 liter inline, four-cylinder turbocharged.
Tom: I meant to ask you about that. Are we across the board that same engine?
Professor: It is the same engine across the board on all trim levels.
2019 VW Tiguan driver front
Professor: Yeah. During our 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan review, we found that it pumps out 184 horsepower, but more importantly, it cranks out 221 pound-feet of torque. So it’s got plenty of torque, plenty of pick up, very, very smooth.
Tom: If you have that third row, all that torque will be put to use. But that is a lot of torque, isn’t it?
Professor: Yes. And I felt like it had plenty of power.
“…I drove it up to Lake Arrowhead up on the twisty mountain roads and it handled well and plenty of power going uphill.”
Even though it’s a big compact crossover vehicle. It handled very well. I drove it up to Lake Arrowhead up on the twisty mountain roads and it handled well and plenty of power going uphill.
Tom: The Professor. He’s always taking his test drives some exotic, southern California location. I’m just like taking mine wherever is…
Professor: I’m getting the full experience.
Tom: Yeah, absolutely, absolutely. The professor is thorough in his vehicle reviews.
Okay, so that brings us to the one thing that I think we need to touch on more in our Ontario Volkswagen vehicle reviews and that is the Volkswagen People First Warranty.
Professor: Six years, 72000 miles.
Tom: Bumper to bumper.
‘…Volkswagen’s People First Warranty. 6-Years / 72,000-miles transferable!’
Professor: Bumper to bumper.
Tom: Now the key thing about that, it’s okay-
Professor: That’s the key thing, bumper to bumper.

Tom: Bumper to bumper, right, and I mean, lots of vehicles have three year, 36000 miles.
So we’re already doubling that, right? Boom. But the big thing is that not only is it double what most are, it’s also transferrable. That’s big.
Professor: That’s big, yeah.
Tom: So, need to point that out. With that in mind, unless there’s anything else, the top three.
Professor: Top three.
I’m gonna have to definitely go with the exterior styling of the vehicle.
As soon as I saw the new Tiguan, I was very, very impressed with the design. I love the way it looks as I mentioned earlier from all angles. Really clean, modern, contemporary design.
Second, I’m going with the interior.
2019 VW Tiguan review Top-3:
I’ve been a big fan of Volkswagen ergonomics for a long time and they did another fantastic job and this one, they decided to go really high tech with the digital cockpit and they’ve got that really big screen for the navigation system.
So that’s really, really nice.
Tom: Oh, that’s right and on the center stack, big screen.
Professor: Yeah.
Tom: Yeah, we didn’t even mention that.
Professor: Center stack and it’s angled towards the driver. So, it’s got great ergonomics.
And then third I’m going with the engine, especially with that torque and then you’re still getting great fuel economy, especially for a crossover with all-wheel drive.
Tom: All right, very nice.
Professor, thank you so much as always. That was the 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan as reviewed by our good friend, Mr. Clinton Quan, aka the Professor.
Our thanks as always to our friends at Ontario Volkswagen, just off the 15 in the Los Angeles suburb of Ontario, California.
