Spring is around the corner, and several automakers have already introduced 2006 models. Meanwhile, many 2005 models have been on sale for over a year - so you'd think there would be no more '05s to be introduced. But wait, there is one more - VW's 2005 new Jetta. The word "new" has to be inserted in its name, as the "old" Jetta has also been available as a 2005 model for many months.
Confusing? Yes, which is why VW tells us to think of the "new" Jetta as a 2006 model, even if it isn't officially.
