Truthfully I was expecting it to be significantly worse. It looks fairly aggressive/mean in this photo. As usual it is probably best we reserve judgment until we see it in person.
Edit: I read several comments stating it is very Jeep like. |

That’s not bad actually. The huge grills work on huge SUV’s. I was worried about the squinty headlights, but at this angle they look ok.
I am not the demographic for this vehicle class so take that for what it is.

Those are just the DRLs. The headlights are hidden behind tinted plastic lower in the bumper cover. See pic.

That's about what I expected. Could be worse. My lease is up in October 2023 and we'll probably get another one. I'm very curious about the engine choices though. Apparently there will be a new TT V8 and all powertrains will get a 48V mild hybrid system.
