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 |
