The Z platform or Z-body automobile platform designation was used on two different types of vehicles made by General Motors.
The first was the second-generation Chevrolet Corvair from 1965 to 1969, which was a rear-wheel-drive and rear-engine compact car that replaced the previous Y-Body Corvair.
Vehicles using the rear-drive/rear-engine Z-body include:
- 1965–1969 Chevrolet Corvair 500
- 1965–1969 Chevrolet Corvair Monza
- 1965–1966 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa
The second was Saturn's automobile platform from its debut in 1990 until 2002, which were front-wheel drive compact cars. This platform was replaced with the GM Delta platform.
Vehicles using the front-drive/front-engine Z-body include:
- 1991–2002 Saturn SC
- 1991–2002 Saturn SL
- 1992–2002 Saturn SW
Famous quotes containing the word platform:
“... a Christian has neither more nor less rights in our association than an atheist. When our platform becomes too narrow for people of all creeds and of no creeds, I myself cannot stand upon it.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
