2009 Volkswagen Eos Overview

Introduction

The Volkswagen Eos is an affordable hardtop convertible with a unique integrated power panoramic sunroof that sets it apart from all other retractable hardtop convertibles on the market.

The Eos is powered by a 200-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and is available with either a six-speed manual or six-speed DSG automatic transmission. A 12-way power driver seat is standard on both the Komfort and Lux trims, while Lux adds a 12-way power passenger seat. Standard features include: convertible-specific electronic climate control, 6-disc CD changer, satellite radio, heated seats and leather wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. Safety features include active rollover bars, an electronic stability system, tire pressure monitoring and front and side airbags.

For 2009, the Volkswagen Eos has been slimmed down to two trims (Komfort and Lux), the VR6 engine choice has been dropped, and VW's new no-charge Carefree Maintenance Program has been added.
