I presume the passenger compartment is about the same height. I sat in a FOX in a junkyard a while ago, and just didn't fit... don't know why it would have been different from the Rabbit.

But, the hood appears higher, thicker doors, etc. I can't tell about the pillars, but the mirrors look big.

One advantage of the newer car is that it likely has electronic multi-directional adjustable seats. So smaller drivers can get to the optimal height easier. No little old ladies that can't see over the steering wheels.... hopefully.

Mom's Prius is good at detecting cross traffic when backing. I know it detects cars and pedestrians, and I would assume bikes.

In bad weather, one periodically has to clean the camera and sensors.

However, driving forward, it has some sensors, but certainly not as aggressive... Perhaps a light on the mirror when a collision would be imminent? I don't know if other brands would be better for situations like pulling out into traffic from a parking lot.
