The Jetta Hybrid is powered by both a 1.4-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder gasoline motor and an electric motor that gets its energy from a rear-mounted battery pack. Being a dual-mode hybrid, the Jetta Hybrid can shut the gas motor off when it's not needed.When you step on it, both motors work in tandem to produce 170 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. An unusual touch is the 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automanual transmission, which the Hybrid shares with sporty models such as the GTI hatchback.Given the Jetta Hybrid's respectable power, fuel economy is astounding: 42 mpg city/48 mpg hwy, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
