Volkswagen will expand the sport versions labeled as “R” by Jetta R.
In the presentation last week in Munich of the sixth generation Jetta, VW has shown a prototype with a V6 petrol engine 3.6 liters but it wasn’t revealed how much power it has.
The engine combines with DSG transmission and 4Motion. Division of VW for sports and “hot” R cars were detached at the beginning of this year in a separate unit within the company along the lines of division “M” at BMW.
Now there want to continue a series of R once submitted Golf R and Scirocco R. According to the sources of division “R”, now there are working only on Jetta R, also on the long-awaited Polo R. The emergence of Polo R becomes possible after the Audi said it will modernize the platform of A1, which will be used by “hot” Polo with 4×4. The previous platform was not adjusted for 4×4 vehicles.
Boss of VW development, Ulrich Hackenberg says Jetta R series will be produced if such is the desire of buyers. Given the high demand for sports sedans with V6 engines in the U.S., the emergence of serial Jetta R is almost certainly more that the platform of the car is suited for transmission of movement to all four wheels.

The car is expected to appear on some of the automotive dealerships in the second half of this year and it will be on the market in 2011.
