More on Volkswagen Jetta
Description from Wikipedia:
The Volkswagen Jetta is a mid range family automobile, produced by German automaker Volkswagen Group for the Volkswagen Passenger Cars marque since 1979. Positioned to fill a saloon/sedan niche above the firm's compact / small family car Golf hatchback offering, it has been marketed over five generations variously as the Atlantic, Bora, City Jetta, Jetta City, Fox, GLI, Jetta, Sagitar, and Vento.
The model's saloon body style was developed in partial response to Volkswagen's observation that the North American market preferred that traditional 'three-box-saloon' configuration, over the Golf's then unconventional (in the North American markets) hatchback body style. The Jetta became the best-selling European car in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The car is also popular in Europe, including the United Kingdom, Germany, and Turkey.
The Jetta has been offered in two- and four-door saloon (sedan), and five-door estate (station wagon) versions - all as five-seaters. As of 2005, over 6.6 million cars have been sold worldwide, over one-third in the United States alone. Since the original version in 1980, the car has grown in size and power with each successive generation.
The Jetta nameplate derives from the German language word for 'jet stream', reflecting the period in Volkswagen's history when it named its vehicles after prominent winds. These also included the Volkswagen Passat (after the German word for trade wind, Volkswagen Golf (after gulf stream), Volkswagen Bora (after bora) and Volkswagen Scirocco (after sirocco).
