Care to guess?

I'm guessing that one of these (circled) is the back-up camera (the rear-view camera is at the roofline, mounted under the rear hatch glass) and that the other is an ultrasonic sensor. What do YOU think?

Sounds good to me. There must be some sort of vision area on the solar panel model facilitating the rear view camera. What would the data from an ultrasonic sensor be used? It's really interesting to see the nice detail of the main body contrasted to what ever this thing is. It's fun to watch as the different aspects come together and evolve.

The area right between the red and green ovals is where I'd expect a tow loop. Sorta hope there's one under the fairing, because I've done stupid shit with my cars before and don't intend to stop...

As for the red-circled stuff, I concur with your analysis. I'd hope there'd be ultrasonics on both rear corners, but I guess just the middle is better than nothing.

I'd love a couple down-looking cameras under either corner to see what's under the rear of the vehicle, as it's possible to park this thing in some odd places, if only one has the proprioception to get the positioning right!

Also I LOOOOOOOOVE the open-wheel look here. I hope it won't set an error code or something if running with the wheel fairings removed. Dream Cruise is gonna be so much fun.
