Ah, yes. AVA similar to the Schlorwagen? All the others are from VW. Confirms my suspicion that the VW Beetle from the beltline up from the A- to C-pillar is optimized for a flat windshield within the driver's reach.

This does show the weakness of any template limited to plan and elevation. Compare the Mercedes-Benz Boxfish or a Porpoise's eyes. Two views don't capture the surface development.
