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.

If you go with MapMod only (no Volcano man mod), units are depicted as line drawings with no accompanying transport type image.   Smile

You can right click on the unit pic to view transport type:
  
For example, in the detailed unit information, towed guns are listed as either horse-drawn or motorized. Infantry is listed as foot, motorized or hard half track (Pz Gren). 

Of course, once you put a unit into T-mode, you'll know it's movement capabilities -i.e. Not capable of entering a rough hex, etc.

This unit depiction works well for me!   Helmet Smile
