These compact cars boasted a blend of practicality, performance, and German engineering, solidifying their position as popular choices in the North American and European markets. The Jetta, a four-door sedan, offered comfortable and spacious accommodations, while the Golf, a hatchback, provided versatility for both passengers and cargo. The GTI, a performance-oriented version of the Golf, captivated enthusiasts with its sporty handling and potent turbocharged engine. Under the hood, the MK4 lineup offered a variety of powertrains, including naturally aspirated and turbocharged four-cylinder engines. The 1.8T engine, found in the GTI and select Jetta and Golf models, became particularly renowned for its power and responsiveness.
