Yawn.

[Dave Hedgehog]

nice 97% identical to the old one

Looks like they've sculpted it into a bit more of a mini estate shape with the raked windscreen and big back.

those wheels look naff in that colour

Another day, another samey samey Audi - I think Audi designers are in danger of becoming as lazy as Porsche designers, obviously with the cutbacks they are on a 2 day week

All the audis from the front look like the a4.

From the side looks good, I am sure the jones will be buying them in the bucket load.

Absolutely this

[JayTee94]

I think that looks smart!

It will be slated for a whole host of things, but I quite like that as it isn't too different from the 'old' one and why would you change the design if the previous sold so well.

..and I normally find modern Audi's (A4,A5,A6) boring.

fking boring

So a slightly enlarged photocopy of the A1?

[ChandlerBing]

Looks quite narrow from the front and the rear end design looks unfinished.

Not really just one colour looks best imo.

[Dr G]

I like that a lot

[Nursing a hemi]

Ah, the Porsche approach to design. Put the last model through the photocopier set at 101%.

[Eighteeteewhy]

Looks like a bigger A1 too me.

[AndyT77]

I like it, but then again i like quite boring things. I haven't read the speil, but from the pics i assume there isn't much changed apart from a new front/back end and some interior tweaks?

[R300will]

The porsche school of design going on here

[SammyW]

I get the whole 'brand identity' thing, but Audi seem to take it a bit too far. A1 to A8 all seem to look pretty much the same from the front and back. They look nice, but that's about it.
