Other Choices:

The 2008 Volkswagen Jetta bridges the size gap among compact sedans. The Honda Civic is a close competitor, but it’s not as handsome as the Jetta. It does offer a coupe body style, a hybrid version, and a natural-gas drivetrain, as well as a better reputation for reliability. The Ford Fusion has a nicely creased style, available all-wheel drive, and a big V-6 engine. It shares some running gear with the Mazda6, which gets a rounded new style for 2009, as well as a more refined interior.

    I'm excited for the new Jetta models!
