Rust, a language with affine types, generics, lifetimes, deep static analysis, hygienic macros, etc is not low-level. It's nearly as high-level as Haskell (without HKTs though).
It just does not rely on GC and allows to manage resources efficiently. This efficiency is partly due to its being so high-level.
