Hatchback Wheelbase Comparison

I've recently been wondering about the size difference between wheelbases for some of the more popular hatchbacks (3-door and/or 5-door) out there. My thinking/hypothesis is that a shorter wheelbase can return more responsive cornering.

Here are the results of a quick comparison of Wikipedia info for each of these vehicles, which are listed in the table from longest (L) to shortest (R) in length:

	Infiniti EX	BMW X1	Subaru Impreza	Audi A3	VW Golf	Nissan Juke	Mini Countryman
length	4,630mm	4,457mm	4,414mm	4,285mm	4,199mm	4,135mm	4,097mm
wheelbase	2,799mm	2,760mm	2,644mm	2,578mm	2,578mm	2,530mm	2,595mm

Is it any surprise that the A3 and Golf are so similar? It shouldn't be, because they're the same car, essentially.
