The Eos cabriolet is back again this year with a few style changes worth noting, particularly in its front section. Both trims, the Highline and Comfortline, are equipped with a 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo that delivers 200 hp and 207 lbs.-ft. of torque. It’s mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. With so few decisions to make, all that’s left for you to do is to lower the roof and let the wind run through your hair.
