Tokyo 2015: Audi Q7 E-Tron borrows from its concept name sake

Spotted this detail while walking across a surprisingly deserted Audi stand. The E-Tron Quattro concept from Frankfurt introduced some new graphics to the Audi face – including slim, parallel LED bars at the outer edges of the fascia which visually carry through from the grille vanes.

Now the E-Tron Quattro version of the Q7, which we’re seeing in Tokyo for the first time, has picked up this lamp graphic, running multiple horizontal lamps bars together in an area of the face we don’t normally expect to see them. A new lamp graphic signature for Audi’s E-Tron cars? We wouldn’t bet against it.
