The new Volkswagen Jetta has been updated for its 2013 version, according to several news agencies.

Experts claim that the new hybrid model of the popular Jetta will start to be sold in October with a SE trim that is equipped with power-reclining front seats, handbrakes, shift knobs and steering-wheels that are fully covered in leather.

The manual lumbar support and the six-way power-adjustable driver’s seat will make the driving much more comfortable. Experts say that the new model’s softer dashboard material comes in as a response to the old versions that were equipped with hard and hollow-sounding dashboards.

Specialists are disappointed, however, that only the SEL trim has received these dashboard updates while the S, SE and diesel TDI trims are not being manufactured with the softer dashboard materials.
