We have had both types, I prefere the look of the original one on our T5 but the new version on the T6 has a few positives in my opinion,
1/ it feels sturdier
2/ it's sits further out from the van so the chances of damaging the roof with Handel bars on bikes is somewhat reduced
3/ when you fold it up it clips into place, the old one needed to be retained with one of the bike clamps.
4/ it has plastic wheel straps with quick release buckles which can't fall off, the old one has normal tie straps that fall off and get lost if you forget to close them when not in use.
These are all minor things and in the end they are both great racks so if you prefer the kylie look go for it.
I hope this helps.
