Volkswagen Jetta (A1)
Although the Golf reached considerable success in the North American markets, Volkswagen observed the hatchback body style lacked some of the appeal to those who preferred the traditional three-box configuration.The styling of the 1970 AMC Gremlin was controversial for truncating the Hornet sedan, but Volkswagen stylists reversed the process by essentially grafting a new trunk onto the tail of the Golf to produce a larger Jetta saloon.In most of the world, the car was available with composite headlamps, while in the US, it was only available with rectangular sealed beam lamps due to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 (FMVSS 108).[14] This generation was also produced in SFR Yugoslavia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, under the joint venture Tvornica Automobila Sarajevo (TAS) for the Balkan area.Volkswagen was standardizing their engine lineup and the Jetta received the same 1588 cc four-cylinder with 76 hp (57 kW; 77 PS) at 5500 rpm as also used in the Scirocco, the Audi 4000, and fuel injected Rabbits.[16] The three-way catalyst electronics system required extra space and replaced the glovebox in early Californian cars.The ride was taut but firm in the typical style of German cars, with large bumps being well absorbed by the suspension but smaller undulations coming through.[23] South African Foxes have the regular Golf front treatment, with round headlamps rather than the square ones used internationally.
