Maybe nothing new but nice to see. That is, perhaps, the closest range from which we have seen video.

Another pic with breaklights on. They do look a little taller in rear facia?

Now this is a little crude, but are these still pics, in series, any evidence to support rear (4) wheel steering where ~ +/- 3 degrees was suggested as possible here on CF? Personally, not by me.

Based on what they did with the C7 tail lights on the development mules, I would put zero stake in trying to figure out the lights based on what you see here.
I hope to god it doesn't have rear wheel steering. One more thing to screw up and your average pick-up truck aligner at the GM dealer will never be able to take the time to pull out the book and do the fancy new C8 correctly.

Thank you crabby for posting the picture sequence,
its not impossible.
Still hard to tell 100% as I watch the video over and over.
The car seems to turn in the parking lot at about 10 mph ,seems smooth and not much rebound.
This is the higher end model with larger wheels and slotted rotors.Most probably mag suspension .
Could magnetic shocks modify toe angle?
