Telling 2024 from 2023 models

Is there a simple way or even a change over date I can look for to determine whether a model is pre-heat versus post-heat pump?

The battery increase update was 2025 but I believe the Heat-pump/new disconnect was introduced previously for the 2024 model.

There is a lower door panel ridge on the 2024 E class that is not present on the 2023 E class.
