I’m still bummed out that because of the floor battery pack the whole thing is still too tall like a crossover. Look at how tall these doors are. The wheels are enormous to visually compensate for the visual imbalance and it still can’t fully achieve that. That thing would have looked absolutely sick had they managed to let the driver sit 6 inches lower and adjusted the whole body accordingly.
I personally prefer higher ground clearance because of the terrible potholes and huge dips on intersections in my city. Especially with the battery at the bottom of the car, I want to avoid damage risk to the undercarriage. A crossover aka lifted hatchback would be my ideal design. Not as big as an SUV, but has better clearance than a sedan.

Sure, just remove the battery. These EV platforms will be a common skateboard design, so get used to it.
