VW Eos: Jack of all trades

We found a nice review of the VW Eos. Enjoy!

In a sea of silly automotive names, Volkswagen’s new Eos stands out. The car is named for the Greek goddess of the dawn, in contrast to the muddy mess of number-centric nomenclature that plagues the industry today. And unlike some names (Pontiac LeMans, anyone?), the Eos’ handle is entirely fitting.

Put simply, the Eos’ top is a jack-of-all-trades. In addition to folding into the trunk in under thirty seconds, which is now almost mundane, the Eos has a bona fide sunroof. No other manufacturer offers a hardtop convertible like this. The top panel is glass, rather than metal, so the Eos can let in the sunshine even when the roof is up. It tilts and slides, and offers a good enough open-top experience on its own.
