Without researching it, there's probably a camera.

No mirrors, just cameras. My Cadillac CT5-V has a rear view mirror camera, and I absolutely love it.

Fritz,
Look at 48 secs in this video. It has a rear window. Far far from as much visibility as I'd like but it's there.

There is a mirror on each side of the vehicle which is sufficient.
Except for the low profile tires, I like it!

Looks more like a crossover than an SUV.
The article states the rear window has a wiper.
Previous years show large but steeply angled rear window, so that may still be the case for the 2023.
I vote for a back up camera that feeds the rearview mirror while in motion, then reverts to back up duty when car is in Reverse.
Isn't there at least one vehicle that has cameras feeding the left and right mirrors?
Elf that shouts directions to you.
If one has to feed the elf, then that's a non-starter.

I've been car researching lately and the ones I've been dinging aren't the ones with a small back window so much as small back side windows - either poor design or whatnot. A back up camera I can live with but nobody's providing side cameras yet.

Wow, might even be worse than the rear view from my Prius.
