The 2011 Volkswagen Jetta Sedan was named October "Car of the Month" by NADAguides.com, a site that provides vehicle pricing and information. The 2011 Jetta recently received an exterior and interior redesign.

"When we say or hear Volkswagen, first thought is: German," says Don Christy, Jr., president of NADAguides. "But, with the 2011 Jetta Sedan, it's pretty clear that Volkswagen is speaking to the North American consumer. Volkswagen adjusted the exterior design to closely resemble that of its popular and successful sibling, the Passat. They have also made an affordable sedan even more affordable by setting the base price at $15,995."The 2011 Volkswagen Jetta starts at $15,995 for the base trim and goes up to $25,295 for the DSG TDI model with navigation, sunroof, heated power seats and power mirrors. It has four engine options, all of which come with a manual transmission, including the 2.0L TDI Clean Diesel. Optional automatic transmissions are available and the 2.0L TDI and TSI will also have a six-speed DSG option.

The new Jetta features Bluetooth, GPS navigation, leather, exterior temperature display, auxiliary input jack, power locks, premium sound system, navigation, sunroof, two front airbags, two side airbags and two thorax airbags.

The 2011 Volkswagen Jetta can be leased for $179 a month for 36 months with $1,999 due at lease signing in October. It also has 2.9 percent auto loan financing for up to 60 months for qualified buyers.
