2011 | 2dr Hatch 122-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid 7-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
No rear seats in the US version, which greatly reduces passenger utility. However, the storage space is much bigger than many cars in the same price range. Driver and passenger seats are otherwise adequately comfortable. see full Honda CR-Z review |

2007 | 2dr Hardtop conv. 250-horsepower 3.2L V6 6-speed automated manual FWD |
Sedan feeling with 10-way power/heated seats blended with sports-car suspension and handling. A real glove box that is cooled by the A/C. Pockets on side doors are handy for storage. see full Volkswagen Eos review |

That it exists! Gets used as more of a parcel shelf than rear seat but can fit two passengers comfortably when needed. see full Volkswagen Eos review |
