Is the 2022 Volkswagen Jetta a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Volkswagen Jetta earns a 5/5 user rating and a 6.83/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Safety at 8/10.

Owners consistently praise its sleek design, smooth performance, and impressive fuel economy, and they also like the spacious, well-designed interior with comfy seats and modern technology. In use, that lines up well with the Jetta’s role as an efficient everyday sedan with a comfortable ride and a modern cabin.

The main long-term ownership risk for used buyers is that some of the car’s technology and controls may not feel as intuitive as you’d like over time.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Volkswagen Jetta?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup starts with Trendline, which gets the basics, while Comfortline and Highline add more equipment and a more premium feel. The base trim misses some of the richer cabin and convenience upgrades you’ll find higher up.
• Powertrain: You get a single 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder with either a 6-speed manual or an 8-speed automatic, and the car is front-wheel drive only. It’s efficient and adequate for commuting, but not especially exciting.
• Safety package: Forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian recognition are standard. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, lane-keep assist, Travel Assist, and Emergency Assist arrive from Comfortline upward.
• Infotainment: Trendline uses a 6.5-inch Volkswagen MIB2 system with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and MirrorLink. Comfortline and Highline move to an 8-inch infotainment system, while Highline adds a 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit Pro display.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada rates the manual at 8.0 L/100 km city, 5.5 highway, and 6.9 combined. The automatic is rated at 7.7 L/100 km city, 5.7 highway, and 6.8 combined.

Which 2022 Volkswagen Jetta trim should I buy?

The 2022 Volkswagen Jetta is offered in 3 trim levels: Trendline, Comfortline, and Highline.

Here's the short version:

• Trendline: This is the value entry point if you want the Jetta’s core efficiency and standard safety without paying for extras. It gets the 6.5-inch infotainment system, smartphone integration, and the standard driver-assistance basics, but it’s the most stripped-back version.
• Comfortline: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the more desirable safety and convenience upgrades, including blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, lane-keep assist, Travel Assist, and Emergency Assist. It also moves you up to the 8-inch infotainment system.
• Highline: This is the trim to choose if you want the most polished Jetta experience, with the 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit Pro display, the 8-inch touchscreen-navigation system, and the most upscale cabin presentation. It’s the most feature-rich choice, but not the value pick.

The safety package is strongest from Comfortline upward, so that’s the trim level to target if driver assistance matters to you.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Volkswagen Jetta?

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on a strong listing.

• Deal availability: 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 274 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.92% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $21,683 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Volkswagen Jetta's resale value?

The current average of $21,683 CAD sits slightly below last year's $24,341 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the used market has already adjusted downward, which can make the car easier to buy now but may also limit upside for a future seller. If you’re planning to resell later, the current trend means you should be realistic about depreciation rather than expecting a quick rebound.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Volkswagen Jetta safe?

The 2022 Volkswagen Jetta falls short of a Top Safety Pick crash safety ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) due to an Acceptable score in the updated side crash test, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gives it a five-star overall safety rating.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian recognition is standard in Canada. From Comfortline upward, you also get blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, lane-keep assist, Travel Assist, and Emergency Assist.

Travel Assist combines adaptive cruise control and lane-keep assist on clearly marked roads above 30 km/h, but it is not a hands-free system. The system also needed extra guidance on sweeping highway curves, so that’s worth keeping in mind if you rely heavily on driver assistance.

Should I buy a 2022 Volkswagen Jetta or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.92% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 refresh adds more standard features, upgraded technology, and a revised powertrain.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $19,581 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $21,683 CAD average.
• It offers a more engaging, refined feel with a comfortable and functional interior.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $22,127 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $21,683 CAD average.
• It adds strong ride comfort, handling, and safety features in a practical package.

The bottom line: The 2022 is the best all-around choice if you want the refreshed Jetta’s improved equipment and still want to keep costs in check. If your priority is saving money, the 2021 is the better value play; if you want a newer model-year alternative and don’t mind paying a bit more, the 2023 is worth a look.
