2012 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen Seat Room and Comfort: Pros

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

2013 4dr Wagon turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel

at 6' 3" the rear seating with sun roof is a little tight. If you are taller than me do not plan to spend much time in the rear. see full Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen review
