Jetta VS8

The Jetta VS8 is a mid-size crossover built by FAW-VW Jetta for the Chinese domestic market. Sales of the series in the country came to 15,993 cars over the past 12 months.

The series is new: it has been in production since 2026, and the range so far consists of just 4 versions. All of them share one engine of 1.4 litres and 110 kW, or 149 hp. With no engine alternative inside the series, the choice comes down to equipment.

In power terms the range sits entirely below the 117.68 kW mark — all 4 versions fall on the same side of that line. Drive is front-wheel drive only; no all-wheel-drive version is offered. The emission standard is China 6.

The dimensions are moderate for the mid-size class: 4,629 mm long, 1,851 mm wide and 1,624 mm tall. The wheelbase of 2,731 mm leaves short overhangs, with the wheels pushed towards the corners of the body. The cabin seats 5. Factory prices stay within a narrow band, from 119,900 to 137,900 yuan, so the gap between the cheapest and the dearest version is small.
