I just found it interesting that Thor would have gone out of their way to modify the Axis' profile for the graphics display. Seems odd they would not use the actual side view with lowered entry unless they thought it looked better with a straight lower edge.
It could be that they did that because folks like me would immediately notice the lower ground clearance and potential for bottoming out over railroad tracks or speed bumps. The ground clearance has to be measured at the lowest point and that is now under the door and from a live photo it looks to be reduced by a good two to three inches.
