You know what you’re getting with a Volkswagen sedan: efficiency, safety, and sportiness all in one sleek package. But like every driver, each VW car has its own unique character. So how do you pick the one that fits yours?

At Street Volkswagen, we can help. We’re taking a category by category dive into what separates two of Volkswagen’s most popular new models: the 2019 Jetta and the 2019 Passat. So buckle up and keep reading. It’s going to be a fun ride.

What’s the Difference Between the Volkswagen Jetta & Passat?

Performance

Volkswagen has always catered to every driver, and the 2019 Jetta and Passat models are no different. Both offer a high-efficiency choice. When you elect to take home the 1.4T trim of the Jetta, you’ll enjoy an estimated 40 mpg of fuel economy on the highway. When you opt for the Passat’s 2.0L TSI® engine option, you’ll achieve an estimated 36 mpg.

But it’s not just about the miles you’ll get — it’s about what you’ll do with them, too.

Both the Jetta and Passat deliver thrilling drive dynamics, thanks to a selection of punchy engines. The of the Jetta earns up to 147 horsepower. And when you pick the new Passat, you’ll crank out up to 174 horsepower. Throw in a 6-speed performance transmission, available on both models, and you have one of the most exhilarating sedan experiences there is.

Comfort & Convenience

The biggest difference between the 2019 Jetta and Passat is a matter of segment. As a midsize sedan, the Passat packs superior rear-seat legroom and a deeper trunk with more storage space. But the compact Jetta is no slouch compared to its larger counterpart. Like the Passat, the Jetta comes with available features like V-Tex leatherette seating surfaces and a power sunroof.

Safety & Technology

The Jetta and Passat host nearly identical entertainment and safety systems. Each pair an available Fender® Premium Audio System with an optional three-month trial subscription of SiriusXM® Satellite Radio. Both models also supply an array of active safety amenities — from a standard rear-view camera to available Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Traffic Alert.

And did we mention that both the Jetta and Passat come with Volkswagen’s six-year, 72,000-mile transferable warranty?

Ready to learn more about the VW Arteon? Read on for more details.

The New Volkswagen Arteon: What You Need to Know

3 Trim Levels

The Arteon will replace the CC — Volkswagen’s flagship luxury sedan. When the car initially goes to market, it will be available in the SE, SEL, and Executive trim levels. The SE will be equipped with:

• 18” wheels
• leatherette seats
• leather steering wheel with paddle shifters
• power front seats
• automatic climate control

You’ll also find other standard equipment on the SE, while the SEL adds on leather seats, remote start, and a sunroof.

For ultimate luxury, you can opt for the Executive trim which is furnished with 19” wheels, ventilated massaging front seats, and a heated steering wheel and rear seats. An R-Line package will also be available on any trim.

Performance and Safety

For power, the Arteon comes standard with a 2.0L turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain puts out 268 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Drivers have the option to upgrade to all-wheel drive.

With a high-quality lineup of versatile sedans, Volkswagen is the easy choice for people in the market for a 4-door. So which Volkswagen sedan do you choose: the compact Jetta or the midsize Passat?

We’ve laid out some of the key differences between the two, so you can figure out which model is right for you. Once you decide you can check out both the new Volkswagen Passat and the new Volkswagen Jetta for sale at Street Toyota in Amarillo, Texas.

2018 Volkswagen Jetta vs. 2018 Volkswagen Passat: Find Your Next Sedan

Cabin Space

The main difference between these models is size. As the larger of the vehicles, the 2018 Passat has more passenger space than the Jetta at 102 cu. ft. The Jetta’s cabin isn’t much smaller, measuring in at 94.1 cu. ft.

Both vehicles offer plenty of room for front- and rear-row passengers to stretch out. The Passat’s larger size makes it better suited for larger families and carpoolers.

Trunk Space

Although it is the smaller sedan, the Jetta provides only marginally less trunk space. The Jetta boasts an impressive 15.7 cu. ft. of cargo space and the Passat offers 15.9 cu. ft. Both sedans also feature 60/40 folding rear seats, which let you expand the trunk’s capacity.

Fuel Efficiency

If you’re looking to save at the pump, the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta may be the better match for you. The Jetta offers up to 40 mpg on the highway. However, with up to 36 mpg on the highway, the Passat is no gas guzzler.

Performance

While both sedans offer impressive lineups of turbocharged engines, the Passat takes the edge when it comes to performance. The Passat’s available 210-horsepower 3.6L V6 engine is the most powerful choice between both cars.

Pricing

The Passat’s larger size comes with a slightly higher price tag. At the base trim level, the Jetta’s starting price is lower than the Passat’s.

Which VW Sedan is Right for You?

Which model you choose will ultimately depend on your budget and priorities. If you’re dealing with a slightly smaller budget, looking for better fuel efficiency, or don’t need the extra passenger space, the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta is an excellent pick. If you frequently drive with passengers or want V6 power, you should opt for the 2018 Volkswagen Passat.

Still not sure which car you want? Contact Street Volkswagen at (806) 350-8999 to learn more about both models. You can also see VW’s sedans in action at our Amarillo, Texas, showroom.

When many people think of Texas, they think of pickup trucks. After all, the F-150 is the highest selling vehicle in the state according to Kelley Blue Book.

But the city of Amarillo, Texas, is quite well-suited for a Volkswagen Beetle.

Why the 2018 VW Beetle is a Good Buy in Amarillo, TX

Here are just a few reasons why the 2018 Volkswagen Beetle for sale now can be a good purchase for anyone in Amarillo.

It’s perfect for tight city driving. Like any city its size, Amarillo is full of tight corners, cramped parking spaces and narrow lanes. At 168” long and 71” wide, the 2018 VW Beetle is agile, nimble, and easy to maneuver through city traffic.

The gas mileage is good for those long drives. All those wide open spaces in Texas make for some long drives between one town and the next. In fact, as of 2013, Texas had by far the most road miles of any state at more than 675,000. Fortunately for VW Beetle drivers, the 2018 model achieves 33 mpg on the highway, making those long drives more efficient.

You can stay nice and cool in the heat. It’s no secret that the weather in Texas can be hot. The state ranks fourth in the country for average annual temperature, including second for summertime heat. But the 2018 VW Beetle beats the heat with an available power tilting and sliding panoramic sunroof to invite the wind into your hair. Or you can keep the roof closed and take advantage of the Climatronic® dual-zone automatic climate control. Better yet, opt for the convertible Beetle Coast and drop the top altogether.

Street Volkswagen is here for you. If you’re driving a VW Beetle around Amarillo, someone will always be looking out for you. That someone is Street Volkswagen on Pilgrim Drive. Our service center offers everything from basic oil changes and tire rotations to full-service repair work, parts replacements, and accessory outfittings.

SUVs come in a range of sizes. While some people prefer the bigger and bulkier designs, others enjoy SUVs that are smaller in stature and fit within the “crossover” category of vehicles.

The Volkswagen Atlas and Volkswagen Tiguan are perfect examples of this kind of diversity. Let’s see how the VW Atlas compares to the VW Tiguan.

The 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan

The Tiguan provides drivers with an SUV experience inside the cabin but a more sedan-like experience on the road. The Tiguan is shorter, lighter, and smaller than the Atlas overall, and this makes for a nimble and agile drive. You can enjoy navigating the Tiguan around tight city streets, competing for parking spaces, and tucking it into the garage. With 184 horsepower under the hood, the Tiguan offers plenty of pop without being overbearing.

The Tiguan is also easy to navigate at the purchasing desk, with a lower starting price than that of the Atlas.

Inside, the Tiguan displays an impressive array of technology for a vehicle of its price point. Just some of these features include a 6.5” color touchscreen display, a rearview camera system, Bluetooth® technology, and Volkswagen’s Car-Net® App Connect.

Not surprisingly, the 2018 Nissan Tiguan was named the “Best Compact SUV of 2017” by Cars.com.

Choose the Tiguan if: You like your SUVs with everything they need but nothing they don’t.  

The 2018 Volkswagen Atlas

Simply put, the Volkswagen Atlas is just a little more SUV than its Tiguan counterpart. The Atlas brings a longer, taller, wider, and heavier body that more closely resembles a classic SUV design capable of dominating the road.

That extra bulk translates into more space on the inside. An astounding 153.7 cu. ft. of passenger volume and 96.8 cu. ft. of maximum cargo volume allows up to seven people and a countless number of items to be stowed away comfortably in the Atlas.

Adding to those capabilities is the fact that the Atlas ramps up 235 horsepower and 258 lb.-ft. of torque. This strength – combined with the Atlas’ larger tires and 5,000-lb. towing capacity – allows drivers to power up hills, take on challenging terrain, and tow trailers with ease.

The 2018 Volkswagen Atlas was named one of WardsAuto’s “10 Best User Experiences for Smart, Safe Connected Vehicles” along with a 2017 Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS.

Choose the Atlas if: You’re ready to take your SUV driving experience to the passing lane.

Shop Where Volkswagens Hit The Street

As cars continue to change and evolve, so do our expectations for them. We want them to be fuel efficient but also deliver strong acceleration and reach high speeds. We want them to look and feel great on the road but also not break the bank.

The Volkswagen TDI models meet both of these requirements and more. Let’s take a look at why you should choose a certified pre-owned (CPO) VW TDI.

Top 3 Reasons A Certified Pre-Owned VW TDI is a Smart Buy

Fuel Efficiency

From commutes to road trips, every drive will be a breeze with Volkswagen TDI cars’ superb fuel efficiency. The 2015 VW Jetta TDI can reach up to 46 mpg on the highway. Meanwhile, the 2015 VW Passat TDI offers a fuel economy of 44 highway mpg. And even with this efficiency, both models offer plenty of horsepower.

Street Volkswagen’s CPO Program

Not all dealerships’ certified pre-owned standards are the same, which means it’s important to get the facts before you make a purchase. With Street Volkswagen’s CPO Program, you’ll get the following benefits:

• 2-Year/24,000-mile limited warranty
• 24-hour roadside assistance program
• 112-point dealer inspection
• CARFAX® vehicle report
• SiriusXM® satellite radio

Dealer Discounts

Used cars always offer the perk of a reduced price tag, but at Street Volkswagen, you can also find dealer discounts on all TDI vehicles. Ranging from $600 to $3,725, you won’t want to miss out on these deals.
