Not sure if I fit the "petite" bill but I'm 5'3" and have zero issues seeing over/past the hood of my R1T, and I test drove the R2 and also had no issues.
Still too complicated. Regular people who drive ice vehicles don't want to have to think about what charger to use to get max amps, kw, etc. They want to go to any charger, plug in (preferably without an adapter), and the performance is the same at each one.

Demo drive today.
Nice little suv, I can see it selling well. Felt like it has rivian DNA, which i was happy about.
