Watching a few video reviews on the Net, it would seem that the Americans pronounce it 'Ay-ohs', but I just watched a UK WhatCar? review and they said 'Eeee-os'. The French pronunciation is more like the US version, so what is it in the UK?

Just curious

I say EEEE-OS, but I haven't got mine yet - I might change my mind when it arrives to YEEEEEEE-OS

Normally you brits tend to say eeeos but it's actually Greek.

It's a German car and they would say Ay-Os but maybe it sounds a bit pretentious in English.

Most British people would say EE-OS.

Eos is Greek, therefore the Greek pronunication is the "correct" one.

Eos (Greek Ηώς, or Έως "dawn")

Eeee-os or Ay-os
But right and both wrong.

Canadians say Eee os. Ehhhh?

A Greek member mentioned once that the Greek pronounciation was E-OSS.
"E" as in enter and "OSS" as in boss.
I have heard an American reviewer call it an EEE-OSE but I think I will stick with EEE-OSS!

Indeed, French say "ey-os", or well it's rather an "é" than a "è" for those who have some French basics...
