To be honest, no. They look big, poorly protected, open to fire from above, and poorly armed.
Look at the angle of protection for the crew. The "v" . Should deflect impact from mines. I do know of modern vehicles just have that shape because of.

Unless that floor is armoured or protected in some way, then it will make little if any difference.

Quote from Wiki
In British service, the M8 was known as the "Greyhound", a nickname seldom, if ever, used by the US. The British Army found it too lightly armored, particularly the hull floor, which anti-tank mines could easily penetrate (the crews' solution was lining the floor of the crew compartment with sandbags).
