High-Tech Features
In technical terms, numerous contemporary
details set the 2012 Eos apart. With a robust five-part roof unit, the fully
opening hardtop converts the Eos from coupe to convertible (and vice versa) in
just 25 seconds with the touch of a button. Unlike any other convertible, the
Eos features a fully-functional sunroof with shade, allowing an open-air
experience when the convertible top is up. A wind deflector has been cleverly
integrated into the roof bow above the sun visors that effectively reduces wind
noise when the top is stowed. And as temperatures rise and fall, the Eos is
ready to respond with its dual-mode automatic climate control system that
adjusts temperature based on the position of the convertible top. All of these
make Eos a great alternative for all-season fun.
Also new on the Eos is
the Keyless Entry and Start System, which allows the owner to get in and start
up their Eos without getting out their key. Music lovers will enjoy the addition
of HD Radio reception alongside SIRIUS satellite radio programming and MP3/WMA
music file playback through the color touch-screen radio.
Safety
The 2012 Eos includes several features designed to enhance driver and
passenger safety, including roll bars that are integrated into the seats and
sensor-deployed in the event of a roll-over. Standard fog lamps now feature
integrated cornering lights to heighten safety on all models.
