Flick between the two and you'll see; the geometry is now more Giant style "compact road" and the tube shapes (top tube, chainstays, down tube) are different as is the shift cable routing.
Surprised I did not notice that but then again I only look at frames not the built models
Too bad though as I think the traditional geometry & top tube shape gave it some of its ride comfort & liveliness
Toptube same effective 545 so good there
Chainstays same length but I cannot see what shapes are now but on Performance Bikes website the magnified view
look similar to what I have. The asymmetrical shapes on this model I have seemed to work well.
But in any case I have seen Fuji does things very well & price/value is always great IMHO I bet you will be happy
