So, why don't we work it out. You have Hucho's 2nd-Edition. You know that he basically said that 'fastbacks' are the only real path to low drag.
If that's the qualifier, then the LEAF is a roof-truncated fastback. Adding the 'elongation' to achieve the lower drag would visually drive the message home.
Like the 1978 Daimler-Benz, Mercedes-Benz, C-111, III, in three flavors: Cd 0.237 to Cd 0.178. Depending on length.
