The 1992 version of Volkswagen Vento is actually the third generation of Volkswagen Jetta, a vehicle which was first manufactured by the German company in 1979.
Although it was already known as Jetta, Volkswagen decided to market the car model as Vento in Europe, but it continued to use the Jetta name in the North American market. In case you’re wondering where does the Vento name come from, find out that Vento actually means wind in Portuguese and Italian. This underlines the idea that Volkswagen attempted to gain the attention of the young consumers with this new model that already recorded an impressive success in the previous years of availability.
