"styling"
But that is only applying to a singular type. Design language is different elements of styling that have a common theme across a series of products.

You may not like the phrase but it's a very valid one that has been around for a good while.

Nope, "design language" is airy-fairy pretentious gobbledegook.

Brand image is how the brand is perceived in the market place.

Just to add to the brand bollocks I think that brand experience forms a part of it as well, for example the heavenly experience of visiting a BMW dealership and seeing the equisitally designed models.
