2023 Jetta GLI Exterior
The Jetta GLI has always been a more mature prospect than the Golf GTI, and that hasn't changed despite VW's latest styling updates. The sedan was the recipient of new bumpers and fresh wheel designs for the 2022 model year. These haven't drastically changed the car's appearance, but it's certainly sportier than less powerful Jetta models. The GLI gets a honeycomb grille treatment with the characteristic red line running through it. LED projector headlights, a power panoramic sunroof, and 18-inch machined alloy wheels are all standard. VW will add a rear spoiler to the back if you wish. No remotely sporty car seems complete without an optional Black package these days and the GLI is no different; this pack will darken the wheels, roof, and mirror caps.

Kings Red Metallic can also be paired with a roof in Deep Black Pearl, but that means specifiying the Black Package for another $595.
