January 25th, 2016: Volkswagen has introduced a new touchscreen infotainment for its Jetta model in India. The infotainment system is the same introduced in recently launched Beetle. The touchscreen unit allows USB, Bluetooth, Aux-In and SD card connectivity while there is CD playback option as well. Volkswagen Jetta received facelift last year in February, but did not get this trending feature of the market. Now with the updated infotainment system, Volkswagen hopes to revive sales of this entry-level luxury sedan. The infotainment also displays visuals for the reverse parking sensors, however, it is to be noted that Jetta still misses the reverse parking camera, which is a bit disappointment.
