IIRC, the current Q7 underwent an emergency redesign and they fired the design chief before it was unveiled.

Here’s a plane with a crazy story...VT-JXH has been sitting on the tarmac waiting to be delivered to Jet Airways since November, but unfortunately the airline filed for bankruptcy last week meaning it now has nowhere to go and will never fly for the airline whose livery it’s proudly wearing.
