2018 Volkswagen Jetta vs 2018 Toyota Camry

Comfort

A high level of comfort is provided in the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta due to the spacious interior that is offered. The design of the interior setting is also clean and modern with premium materials that cause the vehicle to appear regal and chic. The front seats are supportive and comfortable with back seats that are more spacious than the Toyota Camry. A large trunk is also provided in the Jetta without taking away from the generous amount of legroom that is offered in the back seat. The car can also hold its own on winding roads. The 2018 Toyota Camry is redesigned in the cabin and has high-quality materials and features inside of the vehicle. Unfortunately, the seats are less comfortable than those in the Jetta because they're stiff and have too much support. Those who need more room can fold the back seats down in a 60/40 split. Less cargo space is also available in the car compared to the Jetta and is smaller than its predecessor. A shelf or grab handle is also not provided in the trunk, although it's included in most vehicles.

Performance

The 2018 VW Jetta doesn't compromise on the performance and power that is packed under the hood. The sedan is built with three turbocharged four-cylinder engines that are available with fuel-economy that is competitive. The base turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine has 150 horsepower. The vehicle accelerates quickly and responds well when you're trying to merge onto the highway or change lanes. It also has responsive steering with a taut suspension that offers a smooth and relaxing ride. The performance of the Toyota Camry is excellent, but it's no sports sedan, which means you'll need to work harder to keep up with other cars on the road. The driving experience has been elevated with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that has 203 horsepower. The car's eight-speed calibration is the main complaint, which requires you to mash the gas.

Consumer Reviews

Consumers describe the 2018 VW Jetta as a zippy sports sedan that is considered to be eye candy due to its sleek exterior. The seats are incredibly comfortable, and the fuel economy is favored due to the savings that are enjoyed with 35 mpg. The way that the car handles makes it a fun vehicle to drive and offers plenty of joy rides. The interior is an additional perk of the Jetta, which is sleek and with an infotainment center that is easy to use and isn't distracting when trying to keep your eyes on the road. Although the Camry continues to become more advanced, a lack of tech features makes the vehicle less functional and convenient to drive. The car doesn't include Android Auto or Apple CarPlay like the Jetta. Fortunately, a long list of safety standard features offer peace of mind to current owners of the vehicle and compensate for mistakes made while driving.
