Chrysler K platform
The K-car platform was a key automotive design platform introduced by Chrysler Corporation in the early 1980s - featuring a transverse engine, front-wheel drive, independent front and semi-independent rear suspension configuration - a stark departure from the company's previous reliance on solid axle, rear-drive configurations. Derived from Chrysler's L-cars, the Plymouth Horizon and Dodge Omni, the platform was developed just as the company faltered in the market, at first underpinning a modest range of compact/mid-size sedans and wagons - and eventually underpinning nearly fifty different models, including all-wheel drive variants - and playing a vital role in the company's subsequent resurgence.
