2012 Volkswagen Eos Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year Body/Powertrain Comment
2012
2dr Hardtop conv. turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed automated manual FWD
The back seat is not comfortable and has limited leg room. While the latter may be typical of some convertibles, leg room is less than on previous convertibles I have owned.
