The 2011 Volkswagen Eos Convertible makes for an excellent contender in the compact convertible segment. With 2 trims on offer, the Volkswagen Eos has a base MSRP of $32,940. It competes directly with more expensive rivals like the Audi A5 Convertible and the BWW 3 Series Convertible. Only a 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 engine is offered, mated to a 6-speed automated manual transmission. Together, they produce 200 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 7.3 seconds, the Eos maintains a combined fuel economy of 25 MPG. Volkswagen offers the Eos in 5 stunning colors, with the Black Uni being a particular favorite of ours.
Buying Advice
In terms of features, the Lux trim is the best, as it adds daytime running lights, power-folding heated outside mirrors, rain-sensing wipers, auto-dimming rearview and driver's outside mirrors, burled walnut cabin accents, and leather upholstery.
