CHICAGO, Ill. — Volkswagen brought its pop-up Jetta Haus to the Windy City to show off the all-new 2019, giving me the opportunity to take it for a-day-in-my-life drive. So I ran errands and drove places I’d normally go, from the lakefront to the grocery store to rush-hour traffic. And I discovered it’s a pretty nice vehicle. Of course, I should specify that even though Jetta has a base price of $19,395, I was driving a top-tier SEL Premium trim with all the whistles and bells. So, the as-tested price was $27,795. Taking all the cool stuff out of the equation, the 1.4-liter, turbocharged 4-cylinder engine is really nice with its 147 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. The Jetta is compact enough for tight city maneuvers, yet large enough to fit backseat passengers in reasonable comfort.
