While the new style is OK I would recommend to rework over the movement type depiction on the unit art.
While it's historically correct that heavier pieces were drawn by a hauler, the graphics should just show what the unit uses as movement type.
For example the German infantry-guns, why show a half-track if the movement type is motorized and by that should be depicted as truck, or 88mm AA guns that show a hauler what leads to think of tracked movement but instead use motorized movement.
It just leads to misinterpretations on the unit and its capabilities.

These were ported straight across from Panzer battles.

in many cases the 'soft halftracks' represented were needed to get motorised equivalent movement in Russia. that said, I'll go back and check if there is any significant impact in game. Please note the 88's were towed by prime movers, the infantry guns were towed by trucks and we used the ubiquitous 'tracked truck' so needed in the autumn and winter to represent the unique Russian requirements.

If its confusing I'll adjust in the next patch...
