2006 Volkswagen Eos Auto Show Photo

Bearing the same name as the Greek goddess of sunrise, Volkswagen’s Eos four-seat convertible displays some supernatural powers, thanks to a five-section roof that can transform the two-door from sexy convertible to stylish coupe in just 25 seconds. Moreover, when in coupe form, the roof offers a large, sliding sunroof for some open-air pleasure without full exposure to the elements. Based on the Passat, the Eos can accommodate five passengers, making it a direct competitor to the Volvo C70, Chrysler Sebring, and, dare we say, the Audi A4. When U.S. sales begin in summer 2006, the Eos will offer the Passat’s four- and six-cylinder engine options, thus demanding prices that range from about $25,000 to $30,000. Considering that the Beetle Convertible is currently the sole drop-top offering in VW’s U.S. lineup, the Eos seems to be a natural fit. And with sales set for sunny summer, the timing couldn’t be anymore perfect. LIfe is good when you have a goddess on your side.
