I have in my hands a 1988 "Audi 5000S / 5000S turbo / 5000S turbo quattro"
brochure that shows the new style dash, door handles etc.  I also have
a "1988 100/200 series" brochure showing the same.  The name change
occurred mid-model-year, but the change to the new style dash etc. apparently
started with the beginning of the 88 model year.

Is that enough evidence for you?
