3 ways the Jetta will make you a Mother’s Day hero
Right off the bat, we know that when most people think of a Mother’s Day gift, they don’t think about getting a new car. Usually, the Mother’s Day starts off with the obligatory brunch, then the gift is something like a piece of jewelry, a gift certificate to a day spa, or that coupon book where you promise to give her foot rubs and do the laundry that she never bothers cashing in. Why not step completely out of the box this Mother’s Day? If you are in the market for a new car, or you know you are going to be in the market soon, we have 3 ways the Jetta will make you a Mother’s Day hero.

5 reasons to buy a convertible Beetle in Lafayette
Springtime brings with it a desire to get outside and enjoy the weather. After a few months of being cooped up inside through Winter, it’s only natural to want to stretch out, explore a bit, experience the nicer temperatures, and let the sun hit you. But, if all you’re doing is going from the inside of your home to the inside of your car, you aren’t really getting the full experience of being outdoors. If you’re just trading the air conditioner inside your house for the air conditioner in your car, you’re missing out on everything Spring time has to offer in South Louisiana. You’re missing out on having the wind in your hair. You’re missing out on that warmth you feel on the back of your neck from the sun when you’re stopped at a red light. You’re also missing out on the olfactory experience (that’s a fancy way of saying you’re missing all the smells). You miss out on the smell of sweet Southern air as dusk turns into night, the smell of someone lighting a BBQ pit, or the ultimate, the smell of a crawfish boil nearby.
What Can My Volkswagen Infotainment System Do?
Our smartphones are an integral part of our lives. From holding our music, memories, and calendars to their original purpose of actually calling people, we rely on our phones now more than ever. But, when we are behind the wheel of our cars, our phones can prove to be a distraction that puts our safety at risk. This is why the engineers at Volkswagen have to integrate the technology we depend on with the vehicles we drive in the safest way possible. Midway through 2015, Volkswagen announced that most of their 2016 models would include their latest modular infotainment platform (MIBII), which not only integrates your smartphone, but does so much more.
According to Volkswagen’s website, “The all-new infotainment system not only creates the foundation for the next generation of Volkswagen’s Car-Net connected vehicle services platform, but also offers one of the most comprehensive suites of connected vehicle services and features available in the automotive industry today. The new technology will provide consumers access to information, right at their fingertips, available across nearly the entire Volkswagen range.”
One of the most important things people can do when shopping for a new vehicle is to get expert opinions before you buy. A car can look great on the lot, and feel great on the test drive, but what if you’re not asking all the right questions about it? It is valuable to know what “car people” think about the cars you are considering. They do this for a living and know a thing or two about how best to evaluate a vehicle. To share those expert opinions, we have gathered a few samples of what people are saying about the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta.
