A four-seat hardtop convertible for every season
Drive a Eos
The Volkswagen Eos is a coupe with the roof up and a convertible with it down, powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It's been out of production since the 2016 model year, so every one you find is a bit of a treat. Start your search with Volkswagen car rental to see what's listed near you.
On Turo, you book your Eos from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Pick your dates, choose your listing, and the roof is yours to raise or lower.

A hardtop that folds away in seconds
The Eos tucks its power-folding hardtop into the trunk in about 25 seconds, turning a quiet coupe into an open-air convertible. With the roof up, the built-in tilt-and-slide sunroof still lets in light and a breeze. You get a taste of open sky even on cooler days.
Turbocharged, responsive power
A 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder makes 200 hp and 207 lb-ft of torque. Peak torque arrives at just 1,700 rpm, so you feel the pull early without revving hard. A six-speed dual-clutch automatic sends that power to the front wheels with quick, smooth shifts.
It's efficient, too. The 2016 Eos earns EPA ratings of 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, so scenic loops won't keep you hunting for gas. You get real punch off the line and a thrifty cruise once you settle into highway speed.
A cabin made for open-air cruising
With the roof down, the Eos gives front passengers the most space in its class, so you and your co-pilot can stretch out. Synthetic leather upholstery and heated power front seats keep you comfortable when the evening air turns crisp. Dual-zone climate control lets each of you set your own temperature.
The rear seat is snug for full-size adults, so it works best for short hops or extra bags. For two travelers, though, the front of this cabin is a fine place to spend a sunny afternoon. Fold the roof, warm the seats, and let the drive become the destination.
Stand out with a Eos
The Eos is a rare sight today: an out-of-production hardtop convertible with four seats and a roof that seals up snug when the weather turns. It's made for coastal weekends, scenic drives, date nights, and couples' trips. Browse convertible car rental on Turo to plan your next open-air escape.
Top Eos features
Final-year collectibility
Three things set the Eos apart: final-year collectibility, built-in tech for the road, and a mix of safety gear and refined design.
The 2016 model year was the last for the Eos, which makes it a rare find on the road today. When you rent one, you're driving the final chapter of a hardtop convertible that's no longer built. Expect a few curious glances at the beach lot or the valet stand.
For guests who love cars with a story, it's an easy way to spend time with a modern classic. You get the fun of a discontinued convertible without the garage space, upkeep, or long-term commitment of owning one. Book it for a weekend, savor the season, and hand back the keys when the trip wraps up.
Built-in tech for the road
The 2016 Eos comes standard with navigation, Bluetooth, and satellite and HD radio, so your road-trip tech is already on board. Navigation helps you find the scenic route without juggling your phone. Bluetooth pairs your phone for hands-free calls.
Satellite radio keeps the soundtrack going when you drive beyond the reach of city stations. HD radio adds clearer sound to local broadcasts once you're back in range. Together, these features let you focus on the view, the conversation, and the open road ahead, with the roof up or down.
Safety and refined design
The Eos pairs open-air fun with serious safety gear: front, front-side, and side-curtain airbags work alongside antilock brakes (ABS) and stability and traction control. The Intelligent Crash Response System adds another layer. After an airbag deploys, it unlocks the doors, cuts the fuel pump, and turns on the hazards.
Outside, the 2012 refresh gave the Eos a sharper face, with sleek headlights and a twin-blade grille. LED taillights and chrome exhaust tips finish the look from behind. The result is a convertible that looks polished with the roof up and even better with it down.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Eos
Get to know your Eos
A little prep makes your Eos trip easier. Here's what to know about the roof, the drive, and the price before you book.
Check the listing for the model year and features so you know exactly what you're getting. Before you lower the roof, make sure you have clearance above and behind the car, and give it about 25 seconds to finish. Only open or close the roof while you're parked.
For a bigger crew, a Volkswagen ID. Buzz rental gives you minivan space. You can also browse Volkswagen rentals in Los Angeles or Volkswagen rentals in Miami for sun-ready trips.
Eos driving tips
A few simple habits keep your Eos trip comfortable and dry: Pack light, since the folded roof takes up much of the trunk. Close the roof before you park for long stretches or when rain is likely. Fill up with premium gas, which the EPA lists for the Eos. Book early if you're planning a trip during peak convertible season.
How much does it cost to rent a Eos?
The price of an Eos rental depends on the model year, trip length, extras, and delivery. Book four or more days ahead and get 10% off with a non-refundable trip. Duration discounts can also kick in at three days, one week, and one month, and long-term car rental covers trips of 30 days or more.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet.

The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
