The invention refers to a set of rear view assemblies (10) for a vehicle (20) comprising: at least one first rear view assembly (1) to be mounted to a driver side (21) of the vehicle (20) to observe traffic conditions behind on the driver side (21), comprising a first base assembly (1a) and a first head assembly (1b) mounted on the first base assembly (1a), where the first head assembly comprises a mirror element (4) having a first size being a minimum size still fulfilling the legal requirements for provided a mirror-based field of view (FOV-21) on the driver side (21); and at least one second rear view assembly (2) to be mounted on a passenger side (22) of the vehicle (20) to observe traffic conditions behind on the passenger side (22), comprising a second base assembly (2a) and a second head assembly (2b) mounted on the second base assembly (2a), where the second head assembly (2b) comprises a mirror element (4) having a second size being the same minimum size as one of the first head assembly (1b) of the first rear view assembly (1), and a vision system (3) at least comprising at least one vision sensor (31) and a display (32), where the vision sensor (31) is arranged in the second rear view assembly (2) to record an image of the traffic conditions behind on the passenger side (22) to be displayed to a driver (5) by the display (32) with a field of view adapted to meet the legal requirements for the mirror-based field of view (FOV-22) on the passenger side (21) regardless on the reduced size of the second head assembly (2b) of the second rear view assembly (2), wherein the first rear view assembly (1) on the driver side (21) and the second rear view assembly (2) on the passenger side (22) are reduced to a size adapted to the smaller field of view (FOV-21) on the driver side (21) resulting in smaller rear view assemblies (1, 2) having to carry smaller mirror elements (4).
