According to <em>Car and Driver<\/em>, VW&#8217;s so-called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/08\/31\/spy-shots-2011-vw-jetta-sedan\/\">New Compact Sedan<\/a>, which will be <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/07\/22\/report-vw-chooses-mexican-plant-for-new-compact-sedan\/\">built at the same Mexican plant<\/a> that assembles the current Jetta, will indeed retain the Jetta nameplate.<\/p>\n<p>Following its June debut here in the States, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/volkswagen\">Volkswagen<\/a> will prep the car for its European launch later in the year, and it may or may not be called Jetta overseas. A sportier GLI variant will continue to be offered on the new model. Looking farther down the model-range totem pole, there&#8217;s a decent chance that VW will bring the Polo to the U.S. market to rival the new Ford Fiesta, possibly as both a sedan and a hatchback.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, we&#8217;re told that we should expect to see a new U.S.market-tailored two-door notchback coupe concept on the show circuit in short order. If public reaction to it is positive, there&#8217;s a good chance VW will greenlight the car for series production.<\/p>\n<p>[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.caranddriver.com\/vws-u-s-plans-jetta-name-confirmed-two-door-concept-coming-series-production-coupe-possible\/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+caranddriver%2Fblog+(Car+and+Driver+Blog)\">Car and Driver<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/05\/report-vw-confirms-jetta-name-for-small-sedan-upcoming-coupe-c\/\">REPORT: VW confirms Jetta name for small sedan, upcoming coupe concept could enter production<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Sat, 05 Dec 2009 10:47:00 EST.
