Seems that Volkswagen has started to accept orders in Germany of the Jetta hybrid that is already sold in the U.S.A. for some time. Deliveries begin from mid April.
The car is driven by the front wheels which are connected to a turbocharged gasoline engine (TSI) developing 147hp (110kW) and an electric engine with 27hp (20kW), for a total of 174hp (130kW).
To help drive the car is a seven speed dual-clutch gearbox that also helps achieve a 20% drop in the fuel consumption to a cool 4.1litres each 100km which are equivalent to 95 g/km CO2. It also gets to 210km/h. The Jetta can be driven purely on electric power, but only for 2km.
The price starts at €31.300 in Germany.
