VW Throwing Some Festivals for New Jetta

Volkswagen of America is launching a series of festival events across the US to celebrate the all-new Jetta.

Jetta Haus events will pop-up in Chicago, Miami, LA, and New York. They’ll have concerts from breakout performers from Interscope and Red Bull Records. The events are free to the public – not just Jetta buyers – and will have snacks, treats, and Red Bull beverages. There will also be arcade games and a Betta Lab art experience.

The Betta Lab is inspired by the new Jetta’s 10-color ambient lighting package and BeatsAudio stereo that gives attendees a journey through light, sound, and motion.

Of course, VW will also offer closed-course test drives of the 2019 Jetta to showcase the car’s performance and BeatsAudio sound system.

“The Jetta Haus events allow drivers to experience the progression of Jetta in a way that captures the vehicle’s vibrancy and timeless fun-to-drive appeal. We are excited to connect with guests across the cities at our open house party,” said Derrick Hatami, VWoA sales and marketing VP.

Jetta Haus Chicago and Miami run May 11-13, and then LA and NYC run May 18th to the 20th.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
