Under the body, many major components used in the Eos are shared with other Volkswagen models, including sophisticated multi-link rear suspension, electro-mechanical power steering and an advanced range of engines.
While many functional elements such as switches and dials are shared with other Volkswagen models, the shape of the dashboard, door mouldings and rear seats are unique to the Eos.
Revealed to the world at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Eos is the first four-seater car with a power-operated five-section CSC roof — that is, it has the characteristics of a hard-top coupé, sliding glass sunroof, and fully convertible metal roof.

Volkswagen Eos on IAA 2005 The Volkswagen Eos is the name of the Coupé convertible which is the successor of the VW Cabrio.
The Volkswagen TL was a 2-door sedan produced in Germany and by Volkswagen in Brazil in the 1970s, derived from the Volkswagen Type 3.
Inside Volkswagen, it was simply known as the "Type 1" until the 1968 model year (August 1967), when, for the first time, German brochures used the name "Der Käfer" (meaning "The Beetle" in German) on the front cover and inside.

While consistency is a good thing, one might have expected VW to avoid anything associated with its slow-selling luxury car.

Actively engaged in expanding its already ample model line, the 2007 Volkswagen Eos fills a narrow gap between the Golf and the Passat.
Although the Eos was announced with four available gas engines, ranging from 115 horsepower to 250 horsepower, and one diesel engine, it will probably have only the 200-horsepower or the 250-horsepower engine in its U.S. release, which should come in spring 2006.
The Eos seems designed mostly around its retractable hardtop, with highly visible lines where parts of the roof meet.

Volkswagen, long aware of the power of simple, punchy names — Golf, Beetle, Jetta — will also be using Eos as the product name of its new Concept C coupe, an apt name for its new convertible.
Eos is a clever name for an airline that promises to treat its passengers divinely by offering them space, service, and creature comforts like personal DVD players, cashmere blankets and meals served on fine china.
The ancients often referred to Eos riding a chariot pulled by horses across the sky, surely a nice parallel to the impressive 1.6-liter 115- horsepower VW Eos.
