Without other cars to compare to, there is not much I can say. For eg. for such a large car, it has inadequate headroom. We don't know if that is the best possible or it could have been better.
The headroom limitation is a design element that is unrelated to battery placement. Yes, there is a lack of EV sedans, but I think it's pretty telling that the 85D isn't taking much of a hit compared to the other EVs on the market. The 85D is only 24MPGe (combined) less than the i3, despite weighing nearly 2000 lbs more and having far greater performance.
