Abstract: Electric vehicles may have alternative positions for the drivetrain components such as the electric motor such as toward the rear of the vehicle. Thus, the hood/bonnet of the vehicle may be shortened and various features of the vehicle may be adjusted. For example, the driver may be seated at a position more towards the front of the vehicle. Various features of the vehicle may be adjusted to accommodate the driver's altered positioning. For example, the electric vehicle may include forward positioned side view minors that are disposed on an angled mounting arm such that the field of view of the mirrors meets regulatory requirements for vehicles. Additional embodiments incorporate a street view window disposed at the front portion of the vehicle and designed to allow increased forward visibility for the driver.
