2023 to 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Comparison Page

2023 VW Jetta GLI Compared to the 2022 VW Jetta GLI

The Jetta GLI has always been the go-to version of the storied Jetta family for those who want extra everyday performance and interior ingenuity in their sporty sedan. With the 2023 VW Jetta GLI, minimal changes have been made to the vehicle. This is because the 2022 iteration of the GLI received a fairly significant refresh on its release. However, Volkswagen fans across the Denver Metro region will appreciate the consistency that modern Volkswagen vehicles exhibit when they get behind the wheel of the 2023 Jetta GLI.  

Performance 

Equipped with the same vibrant turbocharged 1.5L four-cylinder engine as the 2022 model year sedan, the 2023 Volkswagen Jetta GLI gets around the Denver Metro area with plenty of gusto. All 228 horsepower the sedan delivers promises to excite whatever driver happens to get behind the wheel of the vehicle. Interested customers can pair the engine with either the standard six-speed manual transmission or the available seven-speed automatic transmission. Both give the 2023 Jetta GLI the reliability that today’s drivers want from their everyday cruiser. FWD maneuverability gives the Jetta the potential for dependable handling on virtually any Colorado road and weather condition.  

Exterior & Interior Features

The 2022 version of the VW Jetta GLI received exterior adjustments to freshen it up for that model year. These are carried over to the 2023 iteration of the deluxe sedan for that familiar gorgeous visage as the vehicle roams around town or the highway. The interior of the sedan has also been kept relatively unchanged for consistency. This includes premium features such as fully climate-controlled front seating and stunning ambient lighting that can be customized to several different colors. The spaciousness of the cabin is a welcome returning element of the high-end Jetta as well. Passengers will also appreciate the return of infotainment features such as an integrated Wi-Fi® hotspot and smartphone applications such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.  

Safety Features 

Being a deluxe model of the fan-favorite Jetta family, the 2023 Jetta GLI maintains its excellent array of driver-assistance features from the previous model year. Systems such as Automated Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Warning combine in the Front Assist suite. Every 2023 Jetta GLI also keeps its standard Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and Blind Spot Monitoring combination of systems for comprehensive coverage on the road behind the vehicle. Bringing back standard Adaptive Cruise Control for another year helps keep the 2023 Jetta GLI as a top choice for long highway driving sessions.
