The Future of Cars

The "platforms" used by automakers today are engineering tools that help create the vehicle's basic design. The underpinnings of a vehicle are its chassis, drive train, steering, and suspension. To achieve this architecture, automotive companies conform to Platform Sharing which means that two cars can use the same frame, but with differently-styled bodies attached.

Nowadays, the platform is manufactured by a different company and the modules that are integrated on the top of the chassis are manufactured by a different company. Which broadens the aspects of customizing the modules according to the customers’ demands. Check out this article (click Heading) for more information on what's the future of cars.
