The 2027 Volkswagen Jetta is available in four trims, S, Sport, SE and SEL. Starting MSRP ranges from $23,995 for the Jetta S to $29,995 for the Jetta SEL. Every version listed by Volkswagen uses a gas engine with an automatic transmission, while the 2027 Jetta lineup delivers 158 horsepower and 184 lb ft of torque from its turbocharged engine.
2027 Volkswagen Jetta Trim Levels and Starting MSRP
Volkswagen gives 2027 Jetta shoppers four distinct price points. Buyers can begin with the S, move into the more athletic Sport, step up to the SE, or choose the SEL at the top of the Jetta lineup.
| 2027 Jetta Trim | Starting MSRP | Shopper Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Jetta S | $23,995 | Lowest starting MSRP in the 2027 Jetta lineup |
| Jetta Sport | $25,395 | Sportier design details and XDS Cross Differential System |
| Jetta SE | $26,995 | Step above Sport in the four trim lineup |
| Jetta SEL | $29,995 | Highest starting MSRP in the 2027 Jetta lineup |
Starting MSRP figures come from Volkswagen and exclude taxes, title, accessory installation costs and dealer charges. Dealer sets actual price. Equipment, specifications, options and pricing can change.
2027 Volkswagen Jetta S
The Jetta S begins the 2027 lineup at a starting MSRP of $23,995. For shoppers primarily concerned with getting into a new Jetta at the lowest published starting price, the S is the natural place to begin the comparison.
Volkswagen lists one gas engine and automatic transmission configuration for the S. The supplied Volkswagen model page does not publish a complete S specific equipment list, so equipment beyond the verified model wide features should be confirmed for the individual vehicle.
2027 Volkswagen Jetta Sport
The 2027 Jetta Sport starts at $25,395 MSRP and adds a more athletic personality. Volkswagen specifically highlights black accents, a grille light bar, 17 inch 10 spoke alloy wheels, Molekular seating surfaces and the XDS Cross Differential System for the Sport.
That makes the Sport particularly interesting for a buyer who likes the Jetta's practical sedan layout but wants visual and driving details that separate it from the entry trim.
2027 Volkswagen Jetta SE
The 2027 Jetta SE starts at $26,995 MSRP. It sits between the Sport and SEL in Volkswagen's four trim hierarchy.
Volkswagen confirms the SE as a separate 2027 trim with a gas engine and automatic transmission. A complete SE specific feature breakdown is not published on the supplied Jetta model page, so shoppers should verify the exact equipment included on the vehicle they are considering.
2027 Volkswagen Jetta SEL
The Jetta SEL has the highest published starting MSRP in the lineup at $29,995. It gives shoppers a top trim choice for buyers comparing the highest positioned 2027 Jetta with the S, Sport and SE.
The supplied Volkswagen model page does not provide a complete SEL specific standard equipment list. Exact equipment should therefore be verified on the individual vehicle rather than assumed from previous model years.
2027 Jetta Engine, Horsepower and Fuel Economy
Volkswagen equips the 2027 Jetta with a 1.5 liter turbocharged direct injection TSI engine and an 8 speed automatic transmission with Tiptronic and Sport Mode.
| Engine | 1.5 liter turbocharged direct injection TSI |
|---|---|
| Horsepower | 158 hp |
| Torque | 184 lb ft |
| Transmission | 8 speed automatic with Tiptronic and Sport Mode |
| EPA Estimated City Mileage | 29 mpg |
| EPA Estimated Highway Mileage | 40 mpg |
| Trunk Capacity | 14.1 cubic feet |
| Rear Legroom | 37.4 inches |
The combination is notable because shoppers do not have to move into a higher trim simply to get the model's turbocharged power. Volkswagen identifies a turbocharged engine as standard for the 2027 Jetta.
Technology Available on the 2027 Volkswagen Jetta
Volkswagen identifies a broad collection of technology across the 2027 Jetta lineup. Features published for the model include VW Digital Cockpit, a floating center touchscreen display, connectivity through App Connect, device charging, the myVW mobile app and an available VW Premium Audio system.
Available remote engine start is also listed by Volkswagen. Availability can depend on equipment and trim, so shoppers should verify a particular vehicle rather than assuming every feature is standard across all four trims.
Interior Comfort
The 2027 Jetta combines its sedan proportions with 37.4 inches of rear legroom and 14.1 cubic feet of trunk capacity according to Volkswagen.
Available comfort equipment published by Volkswagen includes dual zone climate control, a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, heated outboard rear seats and 10 color interior ambient lighting.
These available features are useful examples of why trim comparison involves more than price. A shopper may decide that a higher positioned Jetta makes sense because of cabin equipment used every day, while another buyer may place greater value on keeping the starting price lower.
Driver Assistance and IQ.DRIVE
Volkswagen lists Driver Assistance and IQ.DRIVE technology for the 2027 Jetta. The system is intended to assist an attentive driver and does not replace careful vehicle operation.
Exact driver assistance equipment can depend on the vehicle and configuration. Buyers should confirm the specific systems included on the Jetta they are considering.
Which 2027 Volkswagen Jetta Trim Should You Choose?
The simplest way to compare the lineup is to begin with price and then decide what additional equipment matters enough to move upward.
The S has the lowest starting MSRP at $23,995. The Sport costs $1,400 more and is the trim Volkswagen specifically identifies with athletic design details and the XDS Cross Differential System. The SE begins at $26,995, while the SEL represents the top price point at $29,995.
Do not choose from the trim name alone. Compare the actual equipment on available vehicles, determine which features you will regularly use, then decide whether the difference in starting MSRP is worthwhile for your needs.
