I think Hucho,Jannsen,Emelmann,Buchheim,and a bunch of others were involved with streamlining on the Golf/Rabbit/Jetta/Polo,Quantum,etc..In their drag tables you see that the lowest Cd is achieved when the squareback roofline is relaxed down to the subtle curvature of the K-form.
It's always lower than a notchback.If a notchback is converted to a K-form roof,it can achieve the lower drag.
If even lower drag is desired,just extend the rear further rearward,bringing in the sides as well as Hucho personally oversaw with Jetta.
From there it's just plug and play for lower Cd.
