Weber Genesis E320 Grill Changes

In addition, the control panel, heat shields and gas manifold have also been restructured to work more efficiently. There is also an extra pipe burner on the new models designed for searing temperatures. These design changes make the grill more efficient for outdoor chefs and allow them to easily use more of the cooking space.
