It seems to have a fairing of some kind.
But the approach is based on maxing the capacity. It will be big and heavy.
This is no closed circuit economy run vehicle. It has to deal with whatever bad road conditions the world throws at it.
The driver position must be optimal for control, even if it compromises air resistance.

It isn't the 1st of October yet. We'll see how it turns out.
