HERNDON,
Va. -- Volkswagen of America today released the first images
of its significantly enhanced 2012 Eos hard top convertible. The
vehicle features an updated design and has been enhanced with numerous
new features. The new Eos will be unveiled to the public for the
first time on November 17 at the Los Angeles Auto Show, with market
introduction in early spring of 2011.
Clearly structured and horizontally contoured, the appearance of
the new Eos follows the code of the Volkswagen design DNA. Extending
now between the new headlights is a radiator grille consisting of
three shiny black louvers. From behind the Eos stands out through
its reworked, two part LED rear lights with a fiber optic technology
system and redesigned rear bumper with diffuser.
In technical
terms, numerous new details set the 2011 Eos apart. These include
a new multi-function instrument panel with color display and second
generation park assist. Also new on the Eos is the Keyless Access
system, which as a new feature also opens and closes the roof by
wireless remote control. The special Light Assist system takes over
the function of switching between dipped and main beam, automatically
adapting this to the traffic situation.
