Day 2 of the Detroit Motorshow was certainly more interesting than the first day, as alot of the world premieres that were held on the first day are now in the hall. Cars like this Volkswagen New Compact Coupe concept were only revealed in private halls on Day 1, so they could only move it to the main hall where everyone is on the second day.
So here we are, live photos of the new “Jetta Coupe” which most probably also previews what the 4-door new Jetta will look like. The coupe is gorgeous, though in real life I feel it would probably look nicer if the roofline were a little lower.
The Hybrid badging on the front grille refers to its combination of a 1.4-litre TSI engine with 148 bhp and 220 Nm and a 27 bhp electric motor VW calls E-motor. The motor is sandwiched between the TSI engine and a 7-speed dual clutch transmission, and everything goes to the front wheels. Interestingly, the car has a “coast mode” where only the motor powers the car during situations like low RPM highway cruising.
Enjoy the live photos after the jump.

The rear is so Audi!! No?
Nice
i dunno, but the behind looks too much like the A4. I know they're sister company and all, but c'mon!
Otherwise, its gorgeous and hump-worthy.
Looks more like a refurbished model of the audi A5

it's only a concept?!?! daaaaaaammmmmn…..vw has got a lot going on in wolfsburg!

VAG group is d leader now in automotive industry….
thks for Audi for it R&D in technology while great mktg startegy from VW.
PORSCHE/SEAT/SKODA will benefits a lot ……
maybe in future, they will incorporate some features from Lambor/Bentley into day to day cars…..
wow if its a concept its an embarrassment.. I mean this is just so so audi man.
simple n nice… clean cut~!
audi + bmw + honda…BTW really super WOW!
YES! give me one of this~ Neat n clean cut line~ looks damn nice~
like BMW, VW group also ran out of idea in designing exterior. maybe after this, this shape will have SEAT & Skoda emblem on it
white interior? hmmm..not suitable 4 me
I really hate the beetle.. I dun know why.. but when it comes to another model such as Golf Gti, I feel like to withdraw my saving just for the downpayment.
Superb VW!!
Haha! Audi A5 re-badged as VW Golf Coupe
Hmmm…. the more I look at it… the more I like it… And when the hell is VW going to bring in the 1.4 TSI to our shores??
VGM did bring in some Jetta & Touran 1.4 TSI but tak laku here. I’ve test driven it but way beyond my budget….sigh!
yerp.. this is really nice.. nice car!, watch out merc n bmw!
fantastic piece of design
So audi, rear looks 99% A4
WOOW, DELICIOUS YUMMY YUMMY, DELICIOUSLY YUMMY, YUMMMY DELICIOUS
If they make this a 4 door sedan. I bet it'll sell like hot cakes.
very audi-ish…
Lovely.
the front nose almost the same on all their model nowadays.
I thought i was looking at the A8 pics.Until i saw the 2doors.The rear three quarter looks almost identical.WTH!
cool…but interior color should be darker IMO
cool!!! i love it!
very nice and clean look… seems to suit all occasions from business to party. =)
and ya, agree with Abzaja, interior should be of darker tone.
clean and simple interior, VW as always. =)
wonder how much it will be for the production model…
by the way, everything look so production ready…
if not mistaken, any cars that are showcasted 6 months before production can be considered as concept car.
one example is BMW X1. when it was showed, it look so production ready, and the production car is hardly any different from the concept car.
It is a nice car, and look nice too
