VW to offer the Exclusive package on the Eos

The Eos has never been a very "classy" car. But it did have its charms.

So, Volkswagen wisely decided to update the car for 2011.

They added a new front fascia, more luxuries, and the option of the Golf GTi's 2.0 litre turbo-4. Which makes the new Eos go as good as it looks.

And now, they've added even more goodies to the Eos line.

Called the Exclusive package, this bundle of luxury-minded features includes two-tone Nappa leather seats, which are available in beige & black, or burgundy & black, with contrasting stitching. The door panels also get the two-tone treatment, along with a mild re-styling.

The Eos Exclusive also gets aluminium, and piano black wood trim. A unique steering wheel, and the optional Sport suspension comes standard, along with the choice of two 18-inch wheel designs.

VW is trying its best to take their cars upmarket, even daring to compete with its sister company, Audi.

A similar Exclusive package is already available on the Touareg, making it a direct competitor to the Audi Q5. And while the Eos Exclusive may not be an alternative to the Audi TT, it does make the 2011 Volkswagen Eos a much nicer car.
