Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance Concept Revealed - Go-Faster Sedan Goes Bonkers At SEMA 2022
German carmaker Volkswagen has revealed the Jetta GLI Performance Concept. Unveiled at SEMA 2022, the Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance Concept brings with it a 350bhp powerplant, crazy cosmetic changes including aero dis
German carmaker Volkswagen has revealed the Jetta GLI Performance Concept. Unveiled at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show 2022, the Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance Concept is inspired by touring cars of the past and reimagines the sporty Jetta GLI as an even higher performance sedan concept.
The Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance Concept pays homage to previous iterations of the car that bore the Jetta GLI badge in the United States but extracts a massive amount of extra power from the turbocharged 2.0-litre four-pot that lives under the hood.
The Jetta GLI Performance Concept started life as a Jetta GLI Autobahn which sports a 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder petrol engine producing 228bhp and 350Nm of peak torque and a 6-speed manual gearbox.
For the Jetta GLI Performance Concept, Volkswagen of America has fitted the sedan's engine with a RacingLine IS38 turbocharger upgrade that increases the four-pot's output to 350bhp and 504Nm which is an increase of 122bhp and 154Nm over the stock car. The custom car also features carbon fibre cold-air intake, a performance intercooler, and an oil cooler among other upgrades to help keep it in line.
The Jetta GLI Performance Concept also sports a performance clutch upgrade to deal with the extra oomph. And to ensure that the SEMA car comes to a halt quickly, Volkswagen has fitted the Jetta GLI Performance with RacingLine's Stage 3+ six-piston forged big brake kit with 381mm diameter carbon discs.
The Performance Concept version of the Jetta GLI also gets RacingLine's TrackSport coil-over suspension kit which includes a coil-over rear spring/damper, a 'thick stem' inverted front damper, lightweight aluminum bodies, 2.4-in linear springs with helpers, and fully-adjustable solid top mounts along with a suite of underbody braces. This ensures that the GLI Performance Concept is equally at home both at the track and on regular roads.
Other additions on the Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance rides on Rotiform forged GRZ Monoblock 20-inch custom wheels that are wrapped in summer performance tyres as standard. The wheels feature some rather snazzy with aero disc covers as standard. The concept car also features back vented front and rear fenders that are 20mm wider than normal.
Thoughts About The Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance Concept
The Volkswagen Jetta GLI Performance Concept takes the go faster Jetta GLI and adds a host of RacingLine parts that turns the crazy levels up to 11, which makes it the perfect car for the SEMA Show.
