I do not think so. The large grill defines Audi from a marquee perspective. The goal is to associate the larger grill with the heritage of the Auto Union Silver Arrows and even the larger grill seen on the Horch in the latter 30s. I like it because it helps define heritage something Audi is brimming with.

No, but ONLY if they can differentiate their models a little more. The grille takes up so much move and leaves Audi less space to play around with design.
Take BMW for example. You would never mistake a 3, 5 or 7. But the same cant be 100% said about Audis. That said, the new A8 sketch looks very different!

Please tell me that's a photoshop and that someone didn't really do that to an A5! :eek:

British humor is not always comprehendable at first :hihi:
Leadie my i try to interpred: he ment this A5 (original beauty with singleframegrill) looks little bit like the TT Mk. I (wich had no sfg, Mk II does)
Long story short - the consensus here is heavily in favour of the current Audi design (grill) language. :0:
