What do you mean by a car on the same platform?

Question 1: What does a car platform mean? The car is assembled like this:

1. Chassis system (including frame, tires, shock absorbers, etc. )

2. Power system (engine, transmission system)

3. Electrical system (generator, lighting, other power systems)

4. Other supporting facilities (carriages, seats, etc.). )

It can be seen from the above that everything except suspension is installed on the platform of 1, that is, all other systems can be replaced on the chassis system to form a new model. This chassis system is known in the industry as an automobile platform. By developing a platform, many models can be combined on this basis.

Question 2: What does the car platform mean? Simply put, the automobile platform is to use similar chassis and body structure in the development process, which can undertake the development and manufacture of different models at the same time and produce products with different shapes and functions.

The world's first car platform was born in Volkswagen, Germany. Through the implementation of the platform strategy, Volkswagen integrated its product series, greatly reduced the cost, improved the competitiveness of products, accelerated the launch of new products, and made Volkswagen a great success. In 1990s, the platform strategy rose among the major automobile multinational companies in the world and was greatly enhanced.

The competitive strength of multinational corporations has been improved, and the distance between large enterprises and small enterprises has been further widened. The appearance of the platform not only promoted the technological revolution in the field of automobile manufacturing, but also had a revolutionary impact on R&D, product supply chain and service chain, laying a solid foundation for worldwide mergers and acquisitions.

For ordinary consumers, choosing a car is choosing a platform. The specific concept of platform can be understood by consumers as the chassis and frame of a car, which is equivalent to the foundation of a house. take for example

The platform structure of Mazda 3 makes the functions of 2.0L and 1.6L different, but the price cannot be reduced to the price level of 1.6L Lingshuai. Moreover, the most significant difference between different grades of automobile platforms is not the engine displacement, but the structure and construction of the chassis.

After the platform is determined, you can choose different shapes, different displacement engines and different electronic systems according to different needs. So the platform of a car is equivalent to a human skeleton. As for what clothes to wear, it is a personalized segmentation of the automobile market. Therefore, the design of the platform not only determines the overall performance and function of a car, but also determines its price, so there can be no big breakthrough.

Now it is often heard that a car and a car are produced on the same platform, such as the famous PQ34 platform of Volkswagen Group, which produces golf, Bora, Beetle, Skoda Ouya and other models. The latest ES350 platform gives full play to the development and utilization of derivative models, such as Touran, Cadillac, Sagitar and hatchback golf, which emphasize MPS multi-function vehicles, and Audi brands A3, convertible TT, Altea and Toledo of SEAT, the same group. Many PSA cars are also * * * platforms, such as 307 and C4, Camry. The following is a list

The car series of Ford C 1 platform that is selling well is for your reference.

Ford's C 1 platform for Mazda 3,

Focus and Volvo 40 are used, and C 1 is a newly developed medium-sized car platform of Ford, which is jointly developed by Volvo and Mazda within the Ford Group. Every car on the C 1 platform has its own housekeeping skills. Volvo S40 pays attention to safety design, while Mazda 3 maintains the style of pursuing high driving performance sports car. In this way, the C 1 platform has the essence of excellent safety and sports performance in its class, and the rest is left to the most experienced Ford to design. It can be said that this C 1 platform is actually a masterpiece.

In handling, Fox has many similarities with M3. However, Fox's heightened body for space makes its center of gravity on the high side, and the center of gravity deviates obviously when cornering, and occasionally there will be understeer. S40 inherits Volvo's excellent safety performance, and is an excellent compact high-end car, which combines almost all the best safety technology achievements of Volvo cars, and its safety level is comparable to that of the flagship series S80. In addition to the models described above, Fuchu's C 1 platform has also spawned many other models, such as the first release of C-Max, compact MPV mazda 5 and Volvo V50 station wagon.

The reason why the platform is so magical is mainly because a platform can simultaneously carry different types of development and manufacturing. This design idea can greatly meet the personalized needs of users, and a platform can produce products that adapt to different markets around the world; In manufacturing, products on the same platform use a lot of common parts, and always ... >; & gt

Question 3: What exactly does a car on the same platform mean? Most parts are the same, which improves the universality of parts and reduces the research and development cost.

Automobile platform production

With the progress of science and technology and the change of market, the life cycle of a model product is getting shorter and shorter, and the mass production mode can't adapt to the competition gradually. In 1980s, a concept called "automobile platform" came into being. The "automobile platform" is designed by automobile manufacturers and used by several models. The automobile platform is related to the basic structure of vehicles, and different vehicles on the same platform have the same structural elements, such as doorposts, fenders, roof contours, etc. Generally, the wheelbase of vehicles on the same platform is the same, and some accessories are also common. Sometimes many cars of different brands are on the same platform, but different models of the same brand are not on the same platform (for example, Bora and Bora are not on the same platform).

"Modular" production mode

Under the "modular" production mode, the focus of automobile technology innovation is on parts, which should be developed in advance and participate in the product design of automobile manufacturers. For example, Delphi Systems has successively introduced modules such as cockpit, interface disc brake, door, front end and integrated air/oil. On the other hand, automobile manufacturers take the global scope as the space, select and match automobile modules, optimize automobile design schemes, and transfer some assembly labor on the automobile assembly line to places outside the assembly line. Adopting "modular" production mode is conducive to improving the variety, quality and automation level of automobile parts, improving the assembly quality of automobiles and shortening the production cycle of automobiles. Several independent brands, including GM's Excelle, are actually taking this road.

The concept of automobile production platform should also start with the evolution of automobile production mode.

In the early days of automobile production, the mainstream mode of automobile production was all-manual manufacturing, which obviously could not meet the needs of the general public in terms of production capacity and cost. So cars at that time were destined to be the playthings of nobles.

Until the beginning of the 20th century, Ford made Model T, which created a production process that affected the whole world industry-assembly line.

The assembly line production mode greatly reduces the production cycle and cost, and at the same time reduces the price, so that cars will eventually enter thousands of households and embark on the road of popularization.

However, an assembly line can only produce one car. With the development of economy and the change of market, the life cycle of a model product is getting shorter and shorter, and the one-to-one production mode can't adapt to the competition gradually. In 1980s, a concept called "automobile platform" came into being.

Making cars with higher quality at lower cost is the driving force to promote the progress of automobile industry, and the emergence of platform concept can be said to be the continuation of assembly line.

In recent years, with the increase of users' demand for diversified products and the acceleration of automobile upgrading, automobile manufacturers have begun to face more segmented and personalized market demand. The traditional automobile platform began to appear weak in the face of the ever-changing market, and a further "modular platform" was born by luck.

Compared with the traditional integration of design and production, "modularization" is to standardize the design and production of each subsystem of the automobile in the form of "modules", and finally "assemble" according to the positioning of different models. The traditional automobile assembly adopts the way of overlapping parts one by one, which has many stations, long assembly line and low assembly efficiency. "Modularization" refers to assembling parts in the same functional system or area into modules, and auto parts suppliers supply them in modular form according to the functional system, and assemble cars based on modular parts. For example, in the modular production mode, the engine, gearbox, front axle and front suspension are all integrated on the same module, and then assembled with other modules. Traditional platforms are loading engines, gearboxes, etc. It is carried out one by one in a certain link of vehicle production process.

Adopting "modular" production mode is conducive to improving the variety, quality and automation level of automobile parts, improving the assembly quality of automobiles and shortening the production cycle of automobiles.

The modular platform once again embodies the simple idea of manufacturing higher quality cars at lower cost.

It can be said that the automobile platform is the product of manufacturers' implementation of the concept of manufacturing higher quality cars at lower cost. It's not a production line or the same chassis.

Platform is a solution. Its essence is to use some basic design standards to design and improve different models on the basis of these same standards. Even the global production layout of automobile manufacturers can be counted within the scope of the platform.

Modularization of the platform is very helpful for automobile manufacturers to control profits. It ..... >; & gt

Question 4: What does the same platform car mean? A car with the same platform refers to a car with three parts (engine, gearbox and chassis) basically the same. This kind of car has good usability, cheap maintenance and the largest number of people. The first answer is that a car produced by a production line is called * * * line production, not the same platform car.

Question 5: What does the automobile production platform mean? With the progress of science and technology and the change of market, the life cycle of a model product is getting shorter and shorter, and the mass production mode can't adapt to the competition gradually. In 1980s, a concept called "automobile platform" came into being. The "automobile platform" is designed by automobile manufacturers and used by several models. The automobile platform is related to the basic structure of vehicles, and different vehicles on the same platform have the same structural elements, such as doorposts, fenders, roof contours, etc. Generally, the wheelbase of vehicles on the same platform is the same, and some accessories are also common. Sometimes many different brands of cars are on the same platform, but different models of the same brand are not on the same platform (for example, Bora and the current new Bora are not on the same platform).

Under the "modular" production mode, the focus of automobile technology innovation is on parts, which should be developed in advance and participate in the product design of automobile manufacturers. For example, Delphi Systems has successively introduced modules such as cockpit, interface disc brake, door, front end and integrated air/oil.

Several independent brands, including GM's Excelle, are actually taking this road. okeycar/

Let me give you a simple example. Finidi QX60 and Leto Y62 are two completely different brands and models, but they are produced on the same platform, so you will see that they have similarities, but they are not the same. To put it bluntly, they are a bit like half-brothers.

Question 6: What does a car platform mean? Automobile platform mainly refers to the design method of automobile chassis suspension. A platform can often produce many models, but the general driving experience is similar (although the price may vary greatly). Therefore, if you are a consumer who pursues maneuverability, you can choose the best cost-effective model from the same platform according to your economic ability and functional requirements.

Question 7: Do any experts know what we often say about cars on the same platform? The concept of "platform" was first put forward and practiced by Volkswagen Group, and achieved great success on PQ34 platform. However, Volkswagen Group has gradually abandoned the concept of platform and adopted a more abstract concept of "module". The concept of platform is generalized, not a physical concept. In fact, its essence is to use a lot of parts, adopt similar chassis, body structure, drive structure, similar production technology and wheelbase. The concept of platform is mainly embodied in the design and development stage. Because the existing "template" is adopted in R&D, it not only shortens the cycle of vehicle R&D, but also greatly reduces the production cost by using parts, and extends the technical advantages of existing excellent models to more other models. Platform is not equal to chassis and suspension, nor is it equal to production line. The same production line may produce products of different platforms, and a production line may not produce products of the same platform. Models on the same platform do not necessarily represent product homogeneity. For example, in the Volkswagen PQ35 platform, P stands for platform, Q stands for transverse engine, 3 stands for A-class car, and 5 refers to the fifth generation. Therefore, "PQ35" platform refers to a platform that can develop various models on the basis of the fifth generation golf and adopt horizontal engines.

Question 8: What is an automobile engine platform? After reading many people's answers, I feel that the answers are not ideal, either irrelevant or vague. In fact, the platform is often mentioned by people who do technology. This involves the characteristics of a product technology development. Product development is a process of gradual improvement and natural selection. In other words, a company's product development activities are continuous, and the development process of the last product and the next product is continuous. Progressive improvement means that when developing the next product, the experience of the previous product development process will be applied to make the product better and better; Natural selection means that in the process of developing several products, there will be some very good recognized good technologies that will be used in the development of new products. This is the same as natural selection in natural evolution. Good things will be retained and bad things will be eliminated. At this time, the concept of platform appeared. The company has developed different products, especially those of the same period. The main technical solutions behind these products are not different. On the contrary, most of them are the same, but there are differences in some technical solutions according to the characteristics of their products (such as positioning, etc.). The main factors that determine the technical characteristics of a product are the same. This is because reliability is the first consideration of products, and * * * technologies are often mature technologies that have been tested by the market. The application of these technologies has low quality risk. Secondly, because it is a mature technology, there is no need for new development, and the development cost will be greatly reduced. The same technology in these different products constitutes a platform, so you will hear that different products launched by many companies will be developed on the same platform, which is the reason. When the technology accumulation breaks through to a certain extent, there is a big technological breakthrough, and there is a better technology than the original platform, so-called platform upgrade will appear. Therefore, the platform is the concept of project management first, followed by the concept of technology, and then the concept of business.

Question 9: What does a car platform mean? What's the difference between it and the assembly line? The car platform refers to the whole assembly line process of producing this car, similar to the assembly line.

Question 10: What is the car platform that people often talk about? Note: In view of the high frequency of the word FB in the forum, many newcomers don't understand the meaning of this word, so I will explain it in the bulletin board.

The meaning of FB:

1, FB = corruption

F: Friendly.

B: moderate balance

Cheyouhui needs FB and moderate friendship!

3, FB comes from the donkey version, donkeys usually save money, save money. Go out to FB and AA occasionally. Although it doesn't cost too much, it is already FB in the eyes of the donkey who saves money.

In the gourmet version, as long as you spend money to eat, drink and be merry, it is called FB. Usually there are many people involved. This phenomenon is very serious for the petty bourgeoisie ...:-)

The rule, of course, is AA. However, it is best to let people pay the bill, and freeloaders will not thank you!

4. the origin of 4.FB

When and where the earliest FB organization was born, no one can tell. However, it must have been two years ago that FB became the mantra of car lovers. In recent years, the domestic economy has maintained an annual growth rate of more than 7%, people's living standards have improved, more people have bought private cars, and a huge car fleet has emerged. The popularity is booming, and car dealers are also trying their best to render it, so there are naturally more organizations, and some organizations will give themselves a fashionable name. Jetta (Jetta), Fulian (Fukang), Sanglv (Santana), Ranger (Buick), Passat (Passat), Cherokee (Cherokee), Summer Camp (Li Xia), Alto (Alto), Commonwealth (Engel), Saimeng (Sail) and Qi Xinjun (Chery). Although it is a loose organization, it also has its own wonderful characteristics.

■ "FB" tone

It is better to be happy with others than to be happy alone. A cyclist who calls himself a "farmer" said: He has participated in several large-scale FB events, such as going to the Yellow River Estuary to watch the meteor shower and going to Beijing to participate in "Prestige Action". The total mileage of FB is close to 6000 kilometers. Through these FB activities, car owners love the life of owning a car more, are keen on all kinds of exchanges with riders, and also show their cars. The number of FB has increased, and our relationship has changed from online to offline, from netizens to friends. They usually exchange experiences in buying, driving, parking, maintaining and repairing cars. In addition, we also talk about history and life, and the topics are all-encompassing. Interestingly, many couples are FB members, and everyone has a small family, which adds warmth.

During the activity, if a car gets stuck in the mud pit, other "bad friends" will rush to help him push the car out of the mud pit. If the repair technology is not up to standard, there are experts to help. In the increasingly cold urban jungle, this feeling of being accompanied by friends is really enviable. A senior "rotten friend" said that unlike other friends, we all call each other by their net names. This distance is just right, although I don't know much about it.

■ "FB" fun

FB organization has no fixed leader, whoever initiates is the leader. When he has a good idea, he sends a call post on the Internet, and then people who are interested respond. Every FB, there are always seven or eight cars, a dozen or twenty people, and the team echoes back and forth, which is very spectacular. Some pay attention to nervousness, others pay attention to leisure enjoyment, and each has its own interests. There must be a photographer among them. When FB comes back, it often leaves some excellent photos, which are not only distributed to every FB member, but also selected and put on the website.

■ "FB" form

FB activities are not limited to playing with cars, but also cover various aspects such as model airplane performances, karaoke, photo competitions, swimming, rock climbing, ball games and skiing. Some FB institutions will also carry out some exchange activities. They call themselves "corrupt elements", but they are not corrupt at all. They all play with their own cars, spend their own money, and travel by bus with those real corrupt elements, and everything can be reimbursed, which is very different.

■ Ultimate "FB"

What is touching is that FB organization is still a place to cultivate love. It is said that there is an FB organization called "Guangzhou Cheyou. com" in Guangzhou, and it has also conducted a poverty alleviation activity. This FB organization with hundreds of members has organized many "FB" activities since its establishment one year ago, and its footprints are all over Guangdong. In the process of enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, the present situation of poor areas has also attracted the attention of car-playing families. So they organized a "FB" activity, and netizens ... >>
