Used Volkswagen Eos
The Volkswagen Eos is a unique mix: part sleek coupe, part open-air cabriolet. Built from 2006 to 2016, it delivers a rare hardtop convertible experience with the everyday dependability you can expect from a VW. While convertibles generally focus on style, the Eos adds a clever folding metal roof with an integrated sunroof for year-round usability. Compared to rivals like the Peugeot 308 CC or Vauxhall Astra TwinTop, the VW Eos is noted for its stylish lines and solid, German-engineered feel. The Eos offers a comfortable drive and a usable four-seat layout, making it more flexible than most soft-top convertibles. Though ownership of an Eos is mostly positive, consider that the roof mechanism can be complex, and keeping it in tip-top condition will support its premium ambition.
Pros
Versatile metal folding roof- Bluemotion Technology available
- Good year-round driveability
Cons
Boot space tight with roof down- Roof mechanism requires care
- Interior cabin relatively plain
-
What are the key safety features of the Volkswagen Eos?
The Volkswagen Eos comes equipped with multiple airbags, ABS brakes, and ESP (Electronic Stability Programme) as standard. There's also ISOFIX child seat mounts, a reinforced windscreen surround, and rollover protection (rear roll bars activate in a quarter of a second).
-
What engine options are available with the Volkswagen Eos?
Across its life, the Eos was offered with a choice of petrol and diesel engines, including 1.4 TSI, 2.0 TSI, and 2.0 TDI options. These range from efficient 122bhp units through to punchier 200bhp powertrains, with a mix of manual and DSG automatic gearboxes. Later models incorporate Bluemotion Technology for improved efficiency.
-
What are the standard technology and infotainment features in the Volkswagen Eos?
Most Volkswagen Eos models include air conditioning, alloy wheels and an audio system with CD player as standard. Higher trims can add heated seats, leather interiors and parking sensors. Touchscreen navigation, Bluetooth and DAB radio started appearing on later, better-equipped cars, so check to see what options are fitted when you browse.
-
What is the fuel consumption of the Volkswagen Eos?
Fuel consumption varies by engine, but generally ranges from around 30-39mpg for petrol models up to 58mpg for Bluemotion diesel versions, according to official figures. Real-world efficiency will depend on your driving style and roof use (affecting the aerodynamics), so keep that in mind.
-
What should I check when buying a used Volkswagen Eos?
Check the roof's operation by ensuring it folds and seals smoothly with no leaky areas. Inspect the service history, especially for evidence of roof mechanism maintenance. Also, look for electrical faults and signs of water ingress in the boot and footwells. For thorough reassurance, consider booking The AA Vehicle Inspection service.
-
Are Volkswagen Eos cars reliable?
The Eos uses tried-and-tested Volkswagen Golf mechanicals, so problems outside the roof system are fairly rare. As long as the folding roof seals are well-maintained and the car is serviced regularly, overall reliability is rated as good by owners and reviewers.
