At $16,755, the Jetta is “surprisingly priced” according to VW PR. Unsurprisingly, such a price point requires serious cost-cutting. And while all Jettas come out of the same Puebla, Mexico, plant (Chinese production comes later), the models destined for Europe and the U.S. differ significantly.
Based on the “PQ35 Low-Cost” platform, the Jetta is cheaper than the Golf by a strong margin—$1625, to be exact. All Jettas have a steel front subframe, while on other PQ35 derivatives, it’s made of aluminum. But the European Jetta keeps the Golf’s multilink rear axle; U.S. models get a specially developed torsion-beam rear axle. The EU Jetta’s electric power steering goes out in favor of hydraulic power steering, which is less precise and less efficient—but cheaper. That said, it’s also effortless, and it goes quite well with the comfy U.S. suspension if you don’t insist on spending your weekends on the track.
While the U.S.-destined TDI version shares the European TDI’s engine and DSG transmission, gasoline-powered American Jettas are driven by two naturally aspirated engines: the venerable 115-hp, 2.0-liter four and 170-hp, 2.5-liter five, available with a manual gearbox or an Aisin-supplied torque-converter automatic. Europe, by contrast, gets turbocharged four-cylinder TSI engines: a 1.2-liter, two 1.4-liter strengths, and one 2.0-liter unit (which will be sold here as the GLI later). They are more efficient but more expensive to produce than their U.S. counterparts, and they lack the prestige of the higher displacement and the higher cylinder count of the five. For Europe, there is no more conventional automatic: Besides the standard manuals, VW offers only six- and seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions.
The EU Jetta features a soft-touch upper dashboard, four-gauge instrumentation, and an advanced electronics architecture designed to handle VW’s top nav systems—even in the entry-level 1.2 TSI. The U.S. models don’t.
If your performance-loving soul is tortured by these alterations, relief is around the corner: The upcoming GLI gives you just about everything that defines the Euro Jettas, including electric power steering, the multilink rear axle, and the six-speed DSG, as well as the Euro dashboard, gages, and even the hidden electronic architecture. What’s more, it comes in at less than $24,000—little more than the softer five-cylinder Jetta SEL.
That money, of course, will barely get you into a wheezing 1.2-liter TSI in Europe; “surprisingly priced,” apparently, applies not just to U.S. models. Cost-cutting suddenly doesn’t sound all bad, does it?

都是鸟语

来对比图看看把。

这个要慢慢看呀

在一万六千七百五十五美元，新捷达是“令人惊讶的价格”根据大众公关。毫不奇怪，这样的价格点需要认真削减成本。虽然所有捷达走出相同普埃布拉，墨西哥，厂（中国生产的时间更晚），模型运往欧洲和美国差别很大。
基于“PQ35低成本”的平台，捷达比高尔夫便宜了丰厚利润由1 - $ 1625年，是准确的。所有捷达前副车架有钢铁，而衍生其他PQ35，它的铝合金制成。但欧洲捷达保持高尔夫的多重后轴，美国的一个专门开发的模式得到扭转梁后桥。欧盟捷达的电动助力转向熄灭的液压动力转向，这是不准确的和低效率的，但是便宜的青睐。尽管如此，它也毫不费力，而且去美国中止与舒适不错，如果你不坚持你的开支周末在赛道上。
虽然美国为目的地的TDI版本的欧洲TDI的发动机和DSG变速器，汽油为燃料的美国捷达是由两个自然吸气发动机：古老的115马力，2.0升4和170马力，2.5升5，可驱动股与手动变速箱或一个爱信提供的扭矩转换器自动完成的。欧洲，相比之下，得到涡轮增压4缸发动机的TSI：1.2升，2 1.4升的优势，和一个2.0升的单位（这将出售这里是GLI后）。他们更有效率，更昂贵，制造了他们的美国同行，他们缺乏较高的位移信誉和较高的五缸数。对于欧洲来说，有没有除了传统的自动标准手册更多：，大众只提供6个和7速双离合器变速箱。
欧盟捷达具有柔软触感上的仪表板，四轨的仪器，以及先进的电子设备结构设计来处理大众的顶级导航系统，即使在入门级1.2的TSI。美国模式不。
如果你的表现，爱是灵魂的折磨，这些改动，救灾将至：即将举行的环球协力社给你的一切，只是定义了欧元捷达，包括电动助力转向，后桥的多链路，与六速DSG，如以及欧元仪表板，片，甚至是隐藏的电子结构。更重要的是，它有不到24 000美元，较柔和一点五缸捷达的SEL。
这当然金钱，将在欧洲，你几乎可以成为一个喘息1.2升的TSI，“令人惊讶的价格，”显然，不仅适用于美国的模式。削减成本突然听起来并不全是坏事，不是吗？

用谷歌简单翻译了一下,大家讲究看，哈哈～

太强了！只有专业人士才可以意会。
