Volkswagen Eos

Price $39,975 – $47,550
Fuel consumption 6.7 – 9.5 L/100km
The Car Guide rating 75%(view ratings)
Based on the Golf, the Eos is reminiscent of the old Rabbit convertible, a four-seater from yesteryear. It offers a unique five-section roof that gives the driver multiple opening configurations. The mechanics are not complicated with just one engine, namely a 2.0L four-cylinder turbo, and just one transmission, a six-speed twin-clutch automatic gearbox.
