Design and story continuity are two different things. It has been made clear so far that they are not within the same story continuity despite Bumblebee's movie design similarities.
I'll get this out of the way since it seems to be confusing, the story is not the issue. Leave that at that.

The fact it looks like the movie version but drawn is clear it is taking from the movie universe in that of itself. Call it marketing and "identity" tie-in if you want. There will be another movie following this cartoon run afterall.
