To make it practical (easy storage access to bonnet), fresh ideas for rear light design is limited. Manufacturers can design radical styled for the front & rear end styling, but in the end practicality still rules. I don't think there will be a truly 'fresh design' for rear-end (or even front-end) styling from automakers in the next 10 years.
