The covered rear wheel cover hopefully survives because that is going to be the VW 'eco' trademark. It was accepted successfully on the 1L and subsequently applied on the XL1 and will probably continue on with future concepts.
Don't be surprised that the next (close to production) clean & conservative concept will have side mirrors, a rear window, and rear row seating but keeps its rear wheel covers (optional). VW's...Prius/Volt brand.
Volkswagen Group is very deliberate & conservative and hope...will be the top car manufacturer.

As long as they don't get into 3XL(1) or 4XL(1)... maybe just XXL1 and then call it good.
