Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2011	4dr Wagon 170-horsepower 2.5L I5 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD	I am a tall guy with big feet, so my vehicle choices are greatly restricted. The Jetta Sportwagen (Golf Wagon here in Canada) is very comfortable on long drives. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
