Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will feel a little more squished in the Acura Integra than in the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, due to the Acura Integra's smaller rear head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Acura Integra and the Volkswagen Jetta GLI in the front seats.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Acura Integra as you will with the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Acura Integra will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Acura Integra is a little wider than the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. When looking at overall length, the Acura Integra takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Volkswagen Jetta GLI.

Handling
The Acura Integra has a larger turning radius than the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Acura Integra has less horsepower than the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, so it will probably be somewhat slower.

Powertrain
The Acura Integra has much less torque than the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Acura Integra and the Volkswagen Jetta GLI.
