Volkswagen Eos
Contrary to our neighbours to the south, the Eos is available to us only with a 2.0-litre turbo engine. Being a four-door convertible, it stands out from the competition with its hard top, electrically retractable into the trunk. While you are enjoying the fresh air, the top takes up much of the trunks space, though the remaining usable area is decent. The Eos is also the only hard top convertible to be fitted with a glass sunroof.
