Two things I noticed about the US pre-production vehicle is that the rear indicators are red (using the thin brake light/taillight) rather than the amber hockey stick in other countries. I hope that isn't the case because the thin red taillight doesn't appear to be as noticeable (even if it passes DOT/Transport Canada's legal requirements).
Second, it looks like we'll get multi-reflector headlights rather than the dual stacked projector lights. I guess since we probably won't get the LED Matrix function and adaptive headlight, they might as well save cost and give us the more basic multi-reflector.
Edit: Actually one more thing. The North American spec Ioniq 5 Preferred with Ultimate Package only has a driver's relaxation seat, while other countries have it for both driver and front passenger. I wonder if Kia will do the same thing here (or even remove that option all together) to save cost? Again, I hope not, since that's a cool distinguishing feature (among other things like V2L).
