Almost like a city bus design, or like a giant tadpole. It would make it so much easier to see around corners. Engine in the back, driver’s seat behind a somewhat flat or maybe bubble-like windshield for aerodynamics.
For years I drove a van with a short stubby front end. It is so incredibly easier to control and have spatial awareness of the edges of your vehicle compared to the other extreme like a Mustang or Charger where you’re sitting in a bucket and can only see a foot above your 7 feet of hood.
I know some high end sports cars have the engines in the back, so I don’t think that’s a problem. But why not eliminate the hood altogether?
