Went to a car meet last night & this was there. The pic doesn't really do it's size justice, it was HUGE.
It was then I noticed. D' headlamps!

They were all LED, probably just as well, you'd need an extra alternator just to power them if not.

I think the bottom two rows are used as running lights at night rather than indicators.

Yes they are, that's correct, but there is 'plenty' of them

If it were miles per gallon, yes. But in this case (gallons per mile) it might be infinity.

Concerning the headlamps: a lot of American cars (and trucks) of the DeLorean periode used these. They just came of the shelve somewhere, I guess ...
