I actually like this but I think the green and orange are poor choices for this piece
Hardly.
Give me more of the normal batsuit.

Yes please.
But this isn't the Trinity. I expect a proper Trinity photo when they are united. In this film they'll be fighting at least half of the film and unite right at the end, so promoting them now as a team makes no sense.
I went back and re-added brightness and contrast to WonderGal's face and Batfleck's suit:
I think that's the point of the last one..Maybe WW is the one who breaks up the fight, kicks their asses for a while and shows Batman who the real villain is ?
Wouldn't be also a possibility that Batman may wear the armor to help the league? If that pic is real and of course besides maybe as the pal above said that WW is the one that breaks the fight, maybe they are putting Batman in the robo armor for JL to fight whatever the threat is coming and that's why it's promoted like that?I actually understand why they always use armored batman in all this "VS" promo material with emphasis on the two titular character battling each other, as it was meant to visually tie Batman that fights Superman with that armored look. I am 100% sure we won't see him fight Superman in a regular batsuit.
And it's a good use of that visual aspect, because we'll always make the connection of Batman that is antagonistic to Superman to this suit and not his regular one, which we'll see him wear in JL films, when he's standing next to Superman as an ally. So this design basically creates a distance between two "versions" of that character.
With all that being said, I fail to see the need for that design in art that depicts Trinity, such as this one:
It just doesn't work and it kinda kills the point, I find. You have three comic book accurate suits and when you put these three characters together, it usually evokes many drawings of Trinity we saw through the years (like it is the case with mannequins on Licensing Expo or that official Trinity poster), but having Batman in his TDKR mech suit ruins that image. Superman looks like he always does, in his regal outfit, Wonder Woman look like an ancient warrior that she's supposed to be and Batman doesn't look like a dark creature as much as he looks like a robot.
