New Light Bar and Headlamps on R2/R3

I haven’t heard anyone talking about the new light bar and headlamps. I absolutely love the new style.

Hum. Not really seeing anything "new" about it lol. Looks exactly the same to me, just shrunk down for the smaller vehicle.

Are my aging eyes missing something?

I added a few more pictures to make it clearer.

The new lightbar has dimensionality, where the top half protrudes and the bottom half sweeps back inwards. The top half also has sideways texture and the bottom half has up and down texture.

The new headlamps are less oblong, having 3 lamps inside them instead of 4. This makes them a little rounder, and keeps them from getting as close to the bumper.

Also the front end of the R2/R3 does not have the concave depression between the headlamps. It is smoother and cleaner across the front.

I like the subtle differences. Sort of like what Porsche does with it's different models.

I have always thought that the light bar on R1 is bit too thick.

Proportionally, both R1 and R2/3 have similar front facia to headlights/light bar ratios. R2/3 simply does away with small grill and have moved it to below the bumper. Probably to maintain the proportions.

Lets hope the headlights generate more heat to keep the snow off of them.
