Of notice to henk especially.
To celebrate their 90th anniversary, Citroen is introducing a shiny new logo.
I dunno if I like it better.
Urgh, It has lost it's shape. Not what I'd call nice.

Is it only me, or it has barely changed?
There have been worse logo redesigns anyway...

Not going to say anything til' I see it implemented on a car, which may never happen either.

Looks good on that model, can't see it translating very well to higher-end saloons. My problem that I was referencing is the complete lack of Citroens in America.

Well I don't know, probably in bigger cars the badging will look smaller.
On a related note, I don't understand why every generation badging/detailing has to get bigger.

I liked the fact that the present logo flowed well with the bonnet, and maybe could have been incorporated with the lights.
The new one is trying to be edgy and smooth at the same time which looks nice but in the DS concept the logo doesn't merge too well with the rest of the grill, but then again neither does the rest of the car.

This one is contemporary, it suits their current design styles.
Is good thing.

I'm gonna agree with Pieter on this one, it doesn't really matter.
I guess it might suit their design language a little more but as long as they don't blow up the emblem to ricer proportions it doesn't have a noticeable affect.
The font is better, though.

I didn't failed, those are the two letters I was referring at.
Henk said a logo doesn't change the substance of a car, and so the name of the car.
even if Citroen is trying to prove us wrong reviving that name, DS.

Sometimes the letters, they do define the car. :)
And sometimes it's better to avoid the letters at all costs.
