Automobiles

The Volkswagen Jetta (A5, also Mk5 or codename 1K) is a compact car, the fifth generation of the Jetta and the successor to the Bora, manufactured by Volkswagen between 2005 and 2010 and up to 2011 in China. It is a three-box sedan derivative of the Golf Mk5, marketed as the Bora in Mexico and Colombia, the Vento in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay, and the Sagitar in China. It debuted at the Los Angeles Auto Show on 5 January 2005, the second Volkswagen product after the New Beetle to make its world debut at a US show, and the sedan went on sale in the US before any other country. Volkswagen spent 800 million US dollars upgrading the Puebla facilities for it, including a new line for the 5-cylinder engine and 460 robots. It was produced in the largest volumes in Mexico, with final assembly also in China and South Africa.
