2008 Volkswagen Eos VR6 2dr Front-Wheel Drive Convertible

Overview

Introduced for 2007 and continuing strong for 2008, the Volkswagen Eos is an affordable hardtop convertible that delivers brisk acceleration and serves as a smooth companion around town. The Eos comes with two engine choices, a 200-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, or a 250-hp 3.2L V6. The turbocharged engine is available with either a six-speed manual or six-speed DSG automatic transmission, while the V6 is equipped with only the DSG automatic transmission. A 12-way power driver seat is standard on all but the base Turbo trim, while Lux and VR6 trims also get a 12-way power passenger seat. Convertible-specific electronic climate control is standard on all but the Turbo trim. Safety features include active rollover bars, an electronic stability system and front and side airbags. For 2008, the Volkswagen Eos has new trim level naming (Turbo, Komfort, Lux and VR6), some new wheel designs and leather steering wheel/shift knob/parking brake handle standard on all trims.
