It's a scape goat comment from ppl that can not accept the grill that it was designed for the Chinese market... it was not. large grills are alive and well in the US.

Take a look at the pickup trucks for example ... massive grills and they aren't even sold in Asia.

Large prominent front end design is a part of mainstream car market demand in North America. It's only the tiny shoe box of traditionalists that cannot accept it.
