To this point I have found Audi's new "design language" best summed up by two words:  Bo Ring.

Not this thing right here, though.  This is pure fire.  What was my fave Audi is still my fave Audi.  Not only did they NOT screw it up, they actually made it look even better.
Wokeism is nothing more than the recognition and opposition of bigotry in all its forms.  Bigots are predictably triggered.

Still gorgeous.  This and the TT are the sexiest current Audis.

As a current A7 owner who will keep my car another six years
most likely ( very happy ) I have a few beefs about this design:
( I do recognize we grow to love what we have and we look back at it when we park car-- so
everyone might suffer what I am suffering )
a.) the hood from behind the wheel is not the single sweeping line
with uplifts at outer edges that I prefer now.  It is a commodity hood that everyone is going to.
b.) the fender lines seem over emphasized in my view.  My A7 looks sleeker
in rear view mirror.
c.) the grill is delineated more but for what purpose?  I like my A7 better. ( S trim and radar sensors
for adaptive cruise control.

I like this a lot.  I think the 2018 Accord was meant to look like this, but the Honda missed the mark.

That thing is beautiful.  I still like the current one too.
How's the reliability on the first gens?   This is one car I'd be willing to go pre-owned FGC. Not now, but a few years down the road.

Nice looking car.   First thought was similarities to 2018 Accord.   Accord not too shabby either..

Looks a lot like it's poor cousin, the VW Arteon, which isn't too shabby either for about half the price.  I like this better than Gen 1, especially from the rear.

Sat in new Accord yesterday and design elements -- particularly the continuous shoulder
is very Similiar to my A7 and what I like.  The new A7 doors are flat going down from window
-- not so great from a rear-view window look.
I will wait for 2 l. to drive it.
