I'm going with bullshit.

Look at the grills on the G20. Closed. No airflow going through.

G22 meanwhile needs grills twice the size of the G20 for proper engine cooling?

Uh huh, sure.
Aren't those grills on the G20 dynamic?
They are dynamic. Which is cool.

Kinda goes back around to the original point. Seems like an elegant solution to the airflow question instead of making the front of the car look like an open mouthed bass. And again, if the engine needed that much cooling/airflow, they would not have used a design the can close and open. It would just be open.
