Its visual image is as significant as its body elements, primarily with its unique five piece folding steel roof that transforms the Eos effortlessly from sporty coupe to elegant convertible in just 25 seconds.

As a world first, the Eos comes with a stunning hardtop dual technology design, boasting a full-width integral glass sunroof, which slides and tilts, making it the perfect choice for the Middle East's climatic extremes.

Rain or shine, the glass sliding roof captures light, air and a good mood all year round.

The CSC roof also made it possible to design a very low profile windshield frame.

This produces a harmonious design and a panoramic view above the driver and front passenger.

The Eos is one of the most successful convertibles in the world.

Its generous and luxurious standard specifications include ESP, a convertible-specific Climatronic air-conditioning system, electric windows, alloy wheels, a leather-lined steering wheel, multi-function display, central locking, lockable glove compartment with cooling facility, optimised-safety front head restraints, front and side airbags, especially developed head-thorax airbags, and a roll over protection system that deploys in a maximum of 0.25 seconds.

In the Middle East, the Eos is available in two petrol engine versions: 147 kW/200 hp and 184 kW/250 hp.

Fully loaded and highly specced, the four-seater sports convertible boasts Teutonic muscles that propels the coupe way ahead of the crowd, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.3 seconds in V6 form.

With a top speed of 247km/h and a dual-clutch gearbox distributing drive power to the front wheels via six forward gears, the Eos is a unique demonstration of the hallmarks of classic German innovation and engineering.

The name itself stands for emotion. Eos is derived from the goddess of sunrise and is meant to evoke associations with an idealised image of driving a convertible: the early moments of a sunny day.

One thing is for sure: The Eos is an uncompromising convertible for these cool months ahead and an equally suitable coupe for the hot summer temperatures.
