Hatchback vs wagon is the length behind the rear wheels. A wagon is sedan length with a near vertical hatch. It has more cargo volume than the sedan. A hatchback is shorter than a wagon with a near vertical hatch. It gives the cargo volume of the sedan in a shorter vehicle.
A lift back is basically a sedan profile with a hatch
A VW Jetta is a sedan
A VW Golf is a hatchback
A VW Golf Sportwagon is a wagon
A Audi A5 Sportback is a lift back
All are built on the same platform
