Volkswagen: The Goddess of Dawn. According to Greek mythology, the goddess Eos rose with her chariot from the depths of the sea to bring the people daylight every morning, along with some really soggy croissants — that last part according to Geek mythology. But enough about your mother (zing!). We're talking about Volkswagen here, and its new retractable-roof Cabrio, which the company announced will be annointed EOS, as likely for its easy, phonetic pronunciation (from Gstaad to County Cork to Littleton) as its semantics. More details await at the Frankfurt show.
