Somewhat ironically, the 'change' to the VW logo came about as a result of Dieselgate, and the 'board' wanting to distance itself. How they figure that would happen by changing to a dull 2-D logo is beyond me.

As to the two Audi logos hinted at in the linked article, what were they smoking when they came up with those two designs? Was someone waxing lyrical about their days at college in the Biology class, studying cell mitosis... and again, a 2-D design. Those are going to look ugly on a car.

Maybe the bean counters are going to insist that they screen print the new logos on the boot and bonnet!
