What's with VAG's obsession with MASSIVE FUCKING GRILLES nowadays?

And the rear got Lincoln'ed

That grill totally distorts the scale I would have believed that was an A4 size vehicle if you had told me.

Audi has been creating the ugliest trends in automotive design for years.

I like slim grilles where the headlights blend in seamlessly to create the illusion of width.

Almost, it's a Phideon.

Base models are FWD, of course.

It's still a FWD based AWD system.

The Rear

Looks like a stretched up A6. The rear sort of resembles a Bentley Continental Flying Spur.

Because that's Audi's "AWD" system. That's what they've been doing forever.

You had no reason to assume it wouldn't be an understeermachine, since (barring the R8) that's all Audi makes.

Yes, I'm well aware of the fact that Audi has been doing it since A8's launch.

I also didn't assume anything. For once I had hoped they'd give a RWD based AWD system like it's competitors.

I like how the interior looks, though I question the wisdom of having a touchscreen for climate control.

>>17516100
The upcoming Bentley Continental will have a rear-biased AWD system if I'm not mistaken. Probably all the Porsche-designed platforms will get the sportier stuff while Audi has to deal with the typical VAG understeer.

Honestly here, if you were to photoshop the hyundai badge with an Audi badge then put a "quattro" or someshit to replace the Elantra's red mark on the right side of the grill, you could probably fool me by saying it is the new entry-level Audi, the Audi A2.

Funnily enough the silhouette of the old A2 is pretty similar to the Elantra Sport.
Only more squished, and slightly derpy.

I don't know, but I would rather have one big touch screen for everything like in the Model 3.

Audi has lost their touch these last few models. It's a shame, they were light-years ahead of the competition design wise for the last few years and even further back.

I remember thinking this looked ugly compared to the G80. Now it legitimately looks nice compared to the new A8. What a fucking world.
