Even though the wings are new, they are, to all intents and purposes, the same shape and size of the ones on the MR2.
The MRA4 wings have around a 20% larger wing area than the MR2. The inner section is thicker to accommodate the BR710 engines as well.
The fuselage length and tailplane area are unchanged from the MR2.
