Jetta is a car brand created by the Volkswagen Group with its joint venture partner FAW Group in 2019. The Volkswagen Jetta is a popular car in China, and the model forms the basis of the new company, with two additional SUV models joining the range.
The Jetta cars are built in Chengdu at an FAW-Volkswagen joint venture plant.
History
At the time, when the Jetta brand was introduced, Harald Müller was the company president.
In May 2020, Harald Müller revealed in interviews that there's been interest in the brand from outside China. In August 2020, there are plans to potentially export Jetta-branded vehicles outside China, but the company has not disclosed which target markets they want to aim at.

Markets
= Russia
=At the beginning of July 2024, cars under the Jetta marque began to be sold in Russia. The cars are made by FAW Group but reportedly use Volkswagen technology like the Volkswagen Group MQB platform and the Volkswagen EA211 engine. Volkswagen had left Russia in 2023. Die Zeit contacted Volkswagen Group China, who denied that it or any of its joint ventures were exporting to Russia. Die Zeit found that the owner of the Russian website for Jetta and other companies involved in the export were divisions of FAW Group, suggesting that neither Volkswagen nor FAW-Volkswagen itself were involved.
