The tall canopy is due to the narrowing above the door panels.

In a way, it is a roll cage above the door panels, covered by big span of glasses to hide the roll cage.

In the rear, the glass roof allows rear passenger's heads to stick up the roll cage by a few inches.

A standard steel roof(as in SR) can drop that further to reduce rear headroom.

And if roof line is 3" shorter, the rear passengers probably need to crouch down.
