2012 Volkswagen Jetta GLI to Debut at Chicago Auto Show-Steve White VW-Greenville SC

Feb. 2, 2011 - PRLog -- Steve White VW of Greenville SC looks forward to seeing the unveiling of the 2012 Volkswagen Jetta GLI at the Chicago Auto Show.

Set to debut at Chicago Auto Show next week, the GLI model will offer the more potent 200-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine – the same powerplant that makes the GTI so much fun. Volkswagen has said it will hit a claimed 6.7 second 0-60 mph time, or (oddly enough) 6.8 seconds with the DSG automatic.

Perhaps more importantly, however, the GLI will get a proper multi-link independent rear suspension – just like all Jettas get over in Europe.

Combined with what will no doubt be a stiffer suspension, some new wheels and a few trim upgrades, the GLI will help appease the VW fanboys as the automaker’s volume Jetta models help it achieve new sales goals in the U.S.

Steve White VW Audi is located at 100 Duvall Drive in Greenville, SC, and sells a large selection of new Volkswagens and Audis as well as preowned vehicles.
