Volkswagen EOS Gas Mileage

The Volkswagen EOS wins the MPGomatic “Wow, What’s That?” Award for the stealthiest fuel-efficient car on the market. The 2008 VW EOS delivers decent gas mileage, landing a rating of 30 miles per gallon (MPG) on the highway. And not only that … its a convertible with a super slick retracting solid roof. You’ll never call the EOS a ragtop. … and your friends might never know it’s a Volkswagen. (Hint: shave those emblems.)

The EOS is available with two distinctly different engines:

    2.0 liter turbocharged and intercooled DOHC four cylinder engine, producing 200 horsepower (HP) and 207 foot pounds of torque, mated to a six-speed manual or Triptronic transmission. 0-60 in 7.4 seconds.

  • 3.2 liter naturally aspirated VR6 engine, producing 250 HP and 236 foot pound of torque, mated to an automatic transmission. 0-60 times of 6.9 seconds.

30 MPGs, German engineering, the joy of driving a convertible, sweet acceleration figures, and a handsome profile … what else could you ask for? Off the top of our heads, just one thing … the high-MPG 2.0 liter TDI turbo diesel that’s available in the European EOS (but not yet in the States).


Volkswagen EOS Gas Mileage – 2007-2008

Year Manufacturer Model Engine Disp. Fuel Trans. City Hwy
2008 Volkswagen EOS 4 cylinder 2.0 liter P (M6) Manual 21 29
2008 Volkswagen EOS 4 cylinder 2.0 liter P (S6) Auto 21 30
2008 Volkswagen EOS 6 cylinder 3.2 liter P (S6) Auto 19 26
2007 Volkswagen EOS 4 cylinder 2.0 liter P (M6) Manual 23 32
2007 Volkswagen EOS 4 cylinder 2.0 liter P (S6) Auto 23 31
2007 Volkswagen EOS 6 cylinder 3.2 liter P (S6) Auto 22 29

Note: the EPA tweaked their testing procedure, starting with the 2008 model year, with the end result being that the 2008 MPG estimates are now lower than previous years. As always, YMMV.
