The best shape for aero is teardrop or egg shaped with the round part in front and the tapered part in the rear, so there’s no reason why losing the hood is a bad thing for efficiency.
The height is a big issue for efficiency here - low cars obviously get much better efficiency from the same shape - but the shape itself, especially at the front, looks pretty efficient.
