i'm afraid the rear window is vertical, with louvers possible in the engine cover area.
look at this video between 45 and 50 seconds; there is canvas covering the back window, which only makes sense if it is vertical. not a visually pretty design, but maybe practical.

It'll have to have a vertical rear window separating the engine bay from the cabin.. unless they went the route of the Cayman/Boxter and are sealing the engine up. They could've been driving the test cars around with just that divider window in place and missing the slanted glass cover/hatch/window to better disguise the shape.

Clear cover?
Only makes sense it will be an extra cost option.
As is, I don't a Vette engine was ever unattractive.
Then aftermarket can go further and add louvers and all for fair weather cars.
Anyone see the new Lambo Urus and it full cover plastic engine cover...that cover is a disappointing.
I am looking forward to a ME at a $50K base Coupe price then ranging to its ZR1 Vert at $150K fully optioned price. Calif Tax, DMV, Gas Guzzler and all may add to $175K out the door.
