Its the eyebrows and its flame surfacing that Merc incorporated into the S class and Ford has on the upcoming mondeo. The only company that hasnt seemed to incorporate Bangle's latest designs is Audi, who still think that conservative styling is the most desireable.


One of my old friends who is studying to become an automotive designer at BMW met with Bangle at the Ritz Carlton after his mom wrote bangle a letter. Bangle wrote her back and sent him a autographed book of his latest designs and chose to meet him at the Ritz for breakfast.

Actualy even Audi was influenced by Bangle.
Audi's new range seeks to "capture the human link," as A6 senior designer Achim Badstübner puts it.
Witch is quite similar to BMW/Bangle's humanity philosophy.
Tought the execution is diferent.

The A6 in my opinion is the best looking Audi for sale right now but I still dont see any resemblence to Bangle's design elements even if they are starting to look for different inspirations.

Well, there is just one similarity I see with the A6 and some of the Bangle BMW's, and it's that sweeping character line that starts at the rear of the front wheel and curves its way around the rear of the car.





Although, I will say, it's not a big similarity,..but just everytime I see an A6, I see that similarity.

Design elements were not exactly the point.
The point was that the philosophy of finding humanity as Audi themselves stated.
