It's the new (supposedly more comfortable) seating from Kiel, it was added a while ago. Given the choice between Fainsa ironing boards or slightly narrower walkways (being 3+2 they were already pretty narrow), I know which one I'd choose!
The renders just look very claustrophobic. Whilst the seats are a welcome change, there has something been lost from the original render which actually looked more spacious, I suspect due to the lighter colours being used compared to the latest render.
Obviously the 321s and 360s also have 3+2 but the latest design of the Bombardier seems to combine an even narrower walkway with a bigger footprint seat with less room, with darker carpets, dark seat backs instead of white, darker seats and interior panels which all adds up to a less spacious feeling train.
