Facelift
A facelifted Volkswagen Eos appeared in late 2010, and will go on sale as a 2012 model outside Europe.
The Volkswagen concern has no plans to build a top performance version of the Eos (called Eos R), as they did not want its cabriolet to be powered by a high-revving engine, and as the recent top-performing versions have V6s which while powerful are considered too heavy for a sporty offshoot. However, there are rumors that there is an in-house Eos R in the works, and it is speculated that it's likely to get a tuned 3.6 litre VR6 engine and 4motion all-wheel drive system instead of front-wheel drive.
