Default Knowledge of the motor vehicle

In short, the car used in the development process platform is about the same chassis and body structure, can carry different models of development and manufacturing, resulting in a form and function are different products.

car platform in the world's first Volkswagen was born, through the platform strategy, Volkswagen integrated product line, greatly reduce the cost, while improving the competitiveness of products and accelerate new product introductions Sudu that Volkswagen made a great success. 90's of last century,Golf equipment, the platform strategy in the world, the rise of the major automobile TNCs, greatly enhancing the competitiveness of multinational companies, large enterprises and further widened the distance between small enterprises. Platform produces not only the area of ​​advanced automotive technology revolution in R & D, product supply chain and service chain have had a revolutionary impact, as well as mergers and acquisitions to achieve world-wide has laid a solid foundation.

for ordinary consumers, the election is the election platform truck, platform specific concept, consumers can be understood as the car chassis and frame, rather with the housing foundation. For example, Mazda 3, 2.0L and 1.6L platform structure to distinguish between the functions, but the price can not be reduced to 1.6L of Lingshuai price levels. Moreover, the quality of different vehicle platforms, the most significant difference is not the engine displacement, but the chassis construction and structure.

platform is established, to be based on different needs, choose a different shape, different engine displacement, different electronic systems, so that the car's platform equivalent to the human skeleton, as to what to wear, and that personalized car market is broken down. Therefore, the platform design, and then determine a car's overall performance and functionality, but also determine its price, but can not be achieved major breakthroughs

certain vehicles now often hear the same platform with the production of certain vehicles, such as the famous Volkswagen Group PQ34 platform which produced the Golf, Jetta, Beetle, Skoda Octavia etc. models. PQ35 platform is the latest model of the development and utilization of the derivative to the head, like the emphasis on multi MPS Touran cars, multi-functional commercial purposes Caddy, Jetta sedan four-door sedan, hatchback hatchback type of golf, and with the Audi brand group A3, a small convertible sports car TT, SEAT SEAT's Altea, Toledo, etc., PSA is also a lot of cars sharing platforms, such as 307 and C4, Toyota Camry also headed a platform, on many models, like the Lexus ES350, RX Series, Avalon is the same. The following list is the comparison

hot selling Ford C1 platform cars for reference. Ford's C1 platform for Mazda 3, Fox and volvoS40 use of C1 is used in the development of a new Ford car platform, which consists of Ford, Volvo and Mazda within the group to participate in development. C1 platform cars each have their special skill. Volvo S40 emphasis is on security design, the Mazda 3 to maintain its consistent pursuit of high performance sports car driving style this way, C1 platform, thus very well have the same level of security and the nature of sports performance, while the remaining of the most experienced Ford to the design itself can be said that the C1 platform is actually a combination of different opinions in one. In handling, the Fox has a lot of similarities with the M3, but Fox, heightening the body to space, making its high center of gravity, cornering weight transfer significantly, even the phenomenon appears understeer. Volvo S40 is adhering to the outstanding safety performance, is an excellent compact luxury car, almost a combination of security has always been known for Volvo safety of all of the most outstanding scientific and technological achievements, complete with the same level with the flagship series S80 level of security. Apart from the above description of the car models, the Ford C1 platform, also gives rise to many other models, like the first published multi-use business travel car C-Max, Mazda 5 compact MPV, and the Volvo V50 station wagon .

platform is so amazing, mainly because a platform can carry various models of development and manufacturing. This design can greatly satisfy the needs of individual users, a platform can produce the products to adapt to different markets worldwide; In manufacturing, the same platform using a common product of a large number of components and assemblies, greatly reducing the manufacturing cost and procurement costs; in research and development, a platform to achieve a technological breakthrough, the platform is equal to all products on board to achieve a technical breakthrough, greatly reduce the development costs

Shanghai Volkswagen and FAW-Volkswagen is currently widely used PQ34 platform. PQ34 platform technology available has been 7 years or so, mass produced in China, Bora and Golf is the PQ34 platform used.
