5 Door Hatch VS. Wagon

What are you thoughts? How do you distinguish them? Here's my take:

Don't get me wrong, I love the wagons. I'm just trying to understand what's going on.
maybe wagons and hatches are distinguish by the size of the 3rd side windows on each side. if the vehicle doesn't have the 3rd side windows, it's a hatch automatically.


Wagon


5 door hatch

Furthermore, the trunk door must be attached to the rear windshield to qualify as both the 5 door hatch or a wagon.

On this website (http://grohol.com/mazda/photos2.htm), they identified the following vehicle as a hatch.


another 5 door hatch


wagon should have a lengthier look than a hatch.

A legacy wagon should never be a hatch.

I think a 5 door hatch and a wagon differs by the amount of cargo space and the amount of material used to define the space. There is no Legacy hatch.
