I bought the new lego RC car and it has a very different hub than the previous ones. To my understanding, since 2019 and model 42099, lego RC car have a hub that take 6 AA batteries and provides bluetooth plus control over up to 4 powered up brick, usually 3 motors.

The new model has an all in two hub. First instruction was to take the battery part and plug it in the motor part of the hub. It has not slot for powered up brick, 3 independent motors and 6 independent white led

the new lego car controller. It's like a dark gray box with a light gray box  stuck in front and a long thin gray box stuck on top. Top gray part is a removable lithium battery, the front light gray box might be a stepper motor? The dark gray part has an USB C charging port, 2 independent motors with output on the sides and back, 4 independent white led facing front and 2 facing back. The new lego car controller with a bit of car built around it. It's on a detective pikachu mug

the assembled model uses flexible translucent pieces to guide the led light to the front and back light, using red translucent tile to change the back led color
