Some had massive speakers on the roof and were used for propaganda purposes, calling on the germans to surrender etc.

Not sure about the raised roof, I think it's just the elevated view point with the scout car coming down the off ramp. It still has the standard canvas, most of the command ones I have seen pictures of had hard roofs.
