Yes, it’s different. Hit the jump to find out how.

Accidental irony alert: the top image is the new Audi logo, the bottom image is the old one. TTAC regrets the confusion, as probably does Audi.

    Audi also changed the surface profile of the rings, so it may be a trademark variant of the bracketing strategy of "surrounding a patent" Who knows, it may also be the advertising and marketing guys justifying their existence.

    Thank-you for the update, Bertel. I stand corrected. Reason why I'm just a casual observer and not a lawyer. Trademark it is. If you look closely enough, you might notice that even IBM and Mobil have changed their logo slightly over the decades.

  • Cprescott Doesn't any better in red than it did in white. Looks like an even uglier Honduh Civic 2 door with a hideous front end (and that is saying something about a Honduh).
  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X Nice look, but too short.
  • EBFlex Considering Ford assured us the fake lightning was profitable at under $40k, I’d imagine these new EVs will start at $20k.
  • Fahrvergnugen cannot remember the last time i cared about a new bmw.
  • Analoggrotto More useless articles.
