Is there a difference in SE vs HSE Body?

HSE has HID headlights, SE has halogen.
HSE has fog lights, SE doesn't.
HSE has panoramic moonroof SE doesn't.
Anther difference is leather seats vs partial leather.

There are some minor trim differences that you can tell which model is which - look for a PDF on line from Land Rover - they show off 4 different model trims - Pure, SE, HSE, HSE Luxury (not all 4 are available in the USA), they are available in other countries.

The trim level difference between the SE and HSE here in the US is minor but the body looks identical. The only major exterior noticeable difference between HSE Luxury and others are the rear badge.

I changed out my HSE silver SPORT rear badge to black SPORT HSE badge on the rear - see my avatar....

Bodies are identical, I have watched the DS being built at Halewood, and as a supply of coating can say we have never had to do various options for different models as far as the body goes.

Sheetmetal is the same, but as option differences are added, the bumper covers are different as in the fog lamp / non fog lamp and roof differences.

You want to spend the extra dollars for the HSE...The panoramic moonroof will get people talking...

Hse spot lights extra

In North America fog lights where standard on HSE . They may be an option in other countries. Original post was from 2016

I have an SE (SE Si4 Petrol 2015). Mine has Adaptive Bi-Xenon headlights (HiD) - they follow the steering input, as well as LED Fog lights, LED tail lights & LED rear Fog lights. No Halogen on mine. Panoramic roof was optional. Partial leather = yes.
