EV6 rear turn signals changed for US market !!

It’s not a US regulation. It’s basically some marketing department thought it looks “cooler” with all red rather than amber indicators. US law allows either amber or red indicators so there’s flexibility there for manufacturers to offer either one. (Notice Audi has taken full advantage and most of their US-spec cars have rear red indicators).

I agree. In the EV6, it looks way cooler with the amber indicators behind the chrome diamond trim.

. The practice of still allowing red rear turn signals, combined with stop and tail lights, is an absurd anachronism in US regulations.

I want to stress that, by contrast, I think mandatory side marker lamps are a great US regulation, and have been since 1968. Other markets should require them too. But as for red rear turn signals…?! When they were invented in the 1950s they were a great advance. But that’s 70 years ago. Time to move on, America and Canada.

it is bizarre that automakers complicate their inventories by persisting with two systems. Amber lights are allowed in N America; just not required. Go figure!
