Volkswagen Jetta Ergonomic Cockpit_Test It For Yourself

Enter the cabin of the all new VW Jetta and you will be greeted by a cabin designed for a driver to feel absolutely at home and comfortable right from engine ignition. Up in front of the driver sits an instrument cluster that is sporty yet elegant. The silver framed round instruments designed in the style of the Passat CC are positioned for optimum viewing; the multifunction display (trip computer) is located between them. The new three-spoke steering wheel design impresses both visually and to the touch. The left hand rests ergonomically on the gearshift grip. Forward of the gear lever are the redesigned and intuitive controls for the climate control and other convenience features such as the audio systems. This console section is slightly inclined towards the driver for an ideal cockpit layout that focuses on the driver’s needs. Also providing for optimal interior comfort is the air conditioning system that is standard.

The parking brake lever has been repositioned, freeing up more space on the left hand side that is now used for larger cupholders. Numerous storage options – including an option-dependent centre armrest with large storage box and special sunglasses holder – all perfect the car’s practical everyday utility. Despite the sporty low roof line, the effective headroom for driver and front passenger has remained nearly the same: It is now 970 mm. Both occupants take their places on completely redesigned and ergonomic seats that offer a high level of long-distance travel comfort and ample adjustments.

The extended wheelbase enabled a significantly more comfortable layout of the Volkswagen Jetta’s 3-person rear seating area. Compared to the previous model, it now offers 96.7 cm legroom – a gain of 6.7 cm. Headroom in the rear, at 943 mm, is still at the same good level of the previous model.
This Jetta sports a folding rear bench seatback with a 60/40 split, increasing the car’s versatility. The 510 litre boot can be opened from inside the car by a remote unlock switch. Now it is time for that family test drive to truly appreciate what this VW Jetta brings to the segment.
