I have been researching the location of the rear camera on the Honda HRV and the Mazda CX-3.

It looks like the rear camera on the CX-3 is significantly lower. Coming from the land of snow and snow that is an concern of mine. I vaguely remember reading a review somewhere where the reviewer talked about having to clean off the camera repeatedly.

thoughts?

So is lower better or higher better?

Good question!
I would assume higher is better. Further from road splash?

Or at just the right height to catch the full effect of the splash?!

I would think higher is better, gets not as dirty i guess.
Plus you probably get a bigger view range, like if parked in a row, to view aprroching vehicles when you want to back up
