The 2012 Detroit Auto Show is playing host to the world premiere of the brand-new Jetta Hybrid that promises to deliver an average fuel economy of 45mpg US, equal to 54mpg UK and 5.2lt/100km while at the same time offering a respectable 0-60mph (96km/h) sprint time of less than nine seconds.
The compact sedan's hybrid powertrain consists of a 1.4-liter turbocharged gasoline engine delivering 150-horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque from just 1400 rpm up to 3500 rpm, a 20 kW (27 hp) electric motor and a 1.1 kWh battery that is integrated behind the rear bench.
