It was a cosmetic promo which wasn't really popular. Instead of bringing it back for a couple of players who would buy it - mostly those with a surplus of Credits; either long-time players or those who played during Gifting - we decided to keep it permanently Rare because it doesn't affect balance, and gives a little bit more value to the promo.

Yes, the Rare Policy says all the seasonal promos will return a year after / around similar time period, but there are exceptions made - for example, Rare Bots returned due to having a variety of them in-game, as opposed to half of them being previously permanently Rare. In this case, it's a cosmetic advantage + what I said above. As NW said, we can create more alignment-exclusive Bikes/Mutations if there is a demand for them but not necessarily tie them to a promo. They could be made into Rare items which would be only available this Summer, and gone forever - just like the Tanks.

Even though the original Exile/Legion tanks were marked rare, we can still produce more alignment-themed vehicles and mutations.
