It uses the EA211 engine, a 1.4-litre turbocharged inline four-cylinder making and of torque.[8]
In August 2023, the Jetta VS7 was introduced in Tehran, Iran alongside the Jetta VS5 and Jetta VA3 by Mammut Khodro, the official distributor of Volkswagen in Iran. The three models by Jetta will be released in Iran by end of the year.[9]
