The upper part is still the layout of the shark fin antenna, and the lower part adopts a bilateral single exhaust design, which is full of sport.
When it comes to Audi, many small partners should think of the image of "official car". Yes, Audi's exterior design is also between business and sports. The front design of the Audi Q5L is relatively sporty, and the interior of the hexagonal middle grid is embellished with a honeycomb design, and the movement effect is more obvious. Headlight design has always been the pride of Audi, and the headlights of the Q5L are still highly recognizable, in line with the identity of Audi's "lamp factory".

The rear of the car is still a familiar taste, the tail lights echo with the headlights, the recognition is very high when lit at night, the layout of the shark fin antenna is above, and the exhaust design of the bilateral single out is adopted below, but there is another partition in the center of the exhaust pipe, which creates a bilateral double effect.
Mercedes-Benz has a very high status in the hearts of the Chinese people, and many consumers have always been proud to own a Mercedes-Benz car. The design of the Mercedes-Benz GRC is very stylish, and the interior of the net is decorated with stars to create a very strong visual effect. The headlights are designed to be more rounded, and the day running lights are also very chic in shape and have a high degree of recognition.
The GLC body side lines are very slender, and the shape design of the wheel hub is very Mercedes-Benz and has a high degree of recognition. The biggest highlight of the rear of the car is the design of the tail lights, the shape of the tail lights is consistent with the design of the headlights, the front and back echoes very well, and the internal modeling design of the tail lights is also highly recognizable. The exhaust design of the bilateral single out below highlights the strength of performance.
