The underbody contour is flatter than the drawing.

I'm surprised by the those square corners on the windshield. And all the headroom and lack of tumblehome. The rocker panels show some influence by Morelli.

Probably because they are trying to be aero with SIMPLE Curves rather than the complex curves the cells wont 'bend' to.
Also they are trying to maximize solar area.
