Fathom vs. CX-5 Size Comparison - public sighting photo

[PowerShift]

A new photo of the Fathom showed up on Reddit. Although it doesn't reveal anything more of the Fathom itself, it does show the Fathom pulled right next to a second gen Mazda CX-5. What it tells us is that the Fathom is just a scoch lower than the Mazda, which is taller than I expected based on the earlier photo with it alongside an Expedition. My sister has a CX-5 and I've spent some time in it, and I felt it was a bit tall and bulky feeling for my tastes, but I think the Fathom will feel a bit different with an apparently lower cowl and larger windshield.

That shot definitely implies the spaciousness of the Fathom cabin claims.
Interesting perspective.

The thing that sticks out to me in this photo is how much more aggressively the Fathom windshield is raked - especially where it meets the roof.

Eyes play tricks on us. To compare the rake angles, I just place a ruler between my eyes and the screen. I lined up the Mazda "A" pillar, and then I just rotated the ruler so it ran along both "A" pillars. It really jumps out at you.

All the window rake photos are consistent with the mission. As a multiple EV owner (10+ in the family) aero is the single most important factor in efficiency. Period.

The pic once again confirms this will be a compact aka Maverick size vs midsize that Ford likes to mention. Not Ranger or Ridgeline size...

Regarding aero ... I expect the Fathom hood (frood?) to look similar to that on the CX-5.
