I like the type choice, despite the weight appearing to shift optically through the form - but the graphic detail just kinda floats there, doesn't it? I dunno, I don't really care - though it'll be sad to see the old one go - I rather liked it.
What's with the fucking kelpie horse thing?

"Actually, sack the 'optic' comment - late night, not much sleep - it may be my eyes".
Actually Nairn I was going to say the same but I didn't bother. I think they've tried to give a respectful nod to Excoffon's original top-heavy lettering by making it a bit imbalanced, but Excoffon had some solid optical theory behind his design (ie top of the letters are more important than bottom so we look to those and they move faster as a result) and these chumps just seem to have decided to dick around with stroke weights for fun.
Branding seems to have gone back to 1996 in France. This one and the new Citroen one... eeeeuuuurrghh.

It feels like the red thing is taking off, which isn't bad. I'm alright with the new illustration too, it's definitely unique.

the red thing is areference to the french flag.. which is blue-white-red in three vertical beams.. I wish they had somehow encorporated the uplifting motion of the red part in the text as well making it more cohesive.
I like the text, but agree with Moa that the IR could be a tad closer together.
