I drive a smaller hatchback as well and notice the same thing.

I’ve been on the other side of it once. I got roped into driving an acquaintance’s H3 Hummer years ago. I went to change lanes, checked my mirrors, looked over my shoulder out the window, and all seems clear. It wasn’t. There was a car that was completely invisible to me. Had other people not been in the car and looking, I would have run them right off the road. I have no idea how anyone drives those things on a daily basis. I was a nervous wreck.

I think the best visibility I had in a car was my old GTI. I could see all 4 corners and knew exactly where I was at.
