D5, why diferent exaust?
I have already seen real cases of this and I do not understand why the difference, maybe a different MY?
thanks!

It may be one is the V6 and one is the 2.0 Ingenium ...or it could just be the rear bumper styling between models

The red has dynamic pack, the outlets are just coloured black. But the Red is the 3.0 with branch exhausts. The Grey is the 2.0 with twin exhausts on the one side.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

They’re supposed to replicate the outlets on the vision concept, but in reality serve no purpose
It seems to be the fashion, Mercedes-Benz seem to like the look.23.5MY Defender 90 X-Dynamic SE D250 MHEV Pangea Green

From the one I followed with the "twin" exhausts it looked to me just like a trim, with the actual exhausts pointing down just behind the bumper, ala D3/D4.

I prefer to call the tailgate an umbrella. Its a great place to stay dry under. It's 50% better as a shelter than the previous modelIn the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
