We Blog Any Car thoughts…………

My immediate thoughts, whilst looking at it on the Audi stand in Geneva, were that it had a bit of Citroen Cactus look about it but with less of the french design flare. Time will tell…. but I’m sure because it’s an Audi it will do well in the UK.

I am glad that Audi have moved in a somewhat different design direction. They say that they are appealing to a younger audience with this design. I think it’s more about moving into another car market and both young and old will be seen driving through our towns and villages in it. (Or basically just customers who can afford it).

Is it time for Audi to do something different with the front grill? Surely it can’t really get any bigger!? What are your thoughts on the front end and grill We Blog Any Car readers??
