A321 With toothed exhaust CFM56?
$begingroup$
I stumbled upon a wiki picture and I saw a something that I have not seen before: a CFM56 with toothed engine exhaust. Can someone explain to me what engine variant that is? Thanks.

Usually the "teeth" are meant to reduce noise levels, up to a couple dB.

That is a very special add-on. I guess you learn something new every day.

The “toothed” exhaust are called Chevrons and they reduce noise. They are an option on CFM56 equipped A321 aircraft.
Wikipedia CFM International CFM56
”GE and Snecma also tested the effectiveness of chevrons on reducing jet noise. After examining configurations in the wind tunnel, CFMI chose to flight-test chevrons built into the core exhaust nozzle. The chevrons reduced jet noise by 1.3 perceived loudness decibels during takeoff conditions, and are now offered as an option with the CFM56 for the Airbus A321”
