B&B TUNES VW EOS TO 368KW




German tuner B&B has unveiled a stupidly powerful version of the Volkswagen Eos. The hard-top convertible Eos is usually powered by a 2.0-litre turbo engine worth 147kW. But now B&B says this is child’s play. Instead it will offer tuning packages of different power levels.


The first one is a 265kW version which is actually more powerful than the recently-announced Audi TT RS. Next up is a 294kW pack (about the same as the previous generation BMW M5). Then it’s a power figure of 331kW and finally 368kW. The 368kW B&B Eos is able, according to B&B, dash from 0 – 100km/h in just 4.2 seconds. Its top speed is said to be 308km/h.


A choice of 18-inch or 19-inch wheels can be fitted to the car as well as an adjustable suspension system. The body kit comes from another design/ tuning company called Caractere.


The most power we've heard of from a tuned Eos is 195kW by a VW dealer in Gauteng.
