Visual Studio project file format - does that "new one" have an actual name?

I'm in the process of converting my "old style" .csproj files to the "new ones" (the .net core format). Works quite fine and I really like that new format.

The thing that bothers me most is - how do I actually call that new format? Does that thing have a name? Or is everyone calling them "new" and "old" formats?

Not really a technical question, but I'd really like to know...

The development team is calling it SDK-style or SDK-format:

"SDK-style" or "SDK-format" is what we're calling it.

According to the project page, the old one is called Legacy Project System, while the new is called (New) Project System or Common Project System (which is more precisely the base implementation of the new project system). I've also seen it as .NET Core Project System.
