  • Als Chrysler M-Plattform (in den USA auch: M-Body) wird eine Familie von Fahrzeugen des amerikanischen Automobilherstellers Chrysler bezeichnet, die zwischen 1977 und 1989 in unterschiedlichen Ausführungen über die Marken Chrysler, Dodge und Plymouth vertrieben wurde. Die technisch einfachen und über die Jahre kaum modifizierten Fahrzeuge der M-Plattform waren eng mit den 1976 vorgestellten Modellen Dodge Aspen und Plymouth Volaré verwandt. Bei ihrer Einführung waren sie als „small luxury cars“ oder „mid-size-cars“ unterhalb der zur B-Plattform gehörenden Intermediates und der noch größeren Fullsize-Modelle der C- und R-Plattformen positioniert; in den 1980er Jahren stellten sie dagegen die mit Abstand größten Personenwagen der Chrysler Corporation dar. Von der M-Plattform wurden einige weitere Modellreihen der Chrysler Corporation abgeleitet. (de)
  • The Chrysler M Platform (or "M-Body") was an intermediate-sized automobile platform used by Chrysler motors from 1977 to 1989. It was a successor to the F-body, as used on the Dodge Aspen/ Plymouth Volare. The M-body was also the successor to the short-lived R-body, as the Chrysler New Yorker and Plymouth Gran Fury moved to it following the R-body's demise in 1981. The M platform was the final production passenger car with a solid rear axle mounted on Hotchkiss-style, parallel semi-elliptical leaf springs sold in the U.S. The M-cars were built at St. Louis, Missouri and Newark, Delaware with initial debut (LeBaron/Diplomat series) in spring 1977 as 1977 1/2 models, with some 1977-83 production also at Windsor, Ontario. Beginning in February 1987 and ending with 1989 model year, the American Motors plant in Kenosha, Wisconsin was utilized for assembly. By 1983–84, it became clear that most private buyers preferred the equally roomy but cheaper and more fuel-efficient K-cars; however, the M's long-proven traditional engineering, handling, and V8 engine availability appealed to police and taxi fleets, allowing the car's continued existence until the end of the decade.In 1989 the Chrysler M-bodies received a driver side air bag.After the M-bodies were discontinued in 1989 Chrysler Corporation wouldn't build a rear wheel drive car outside of trucks and specialty models until LX based cars. Vehicles on this platform include: * 1977-1989 Dodge Diplomat * 1977-1981 Chrysler LeBaron * 1978-1981 Chrysler Town & Country station wagon * 1978-1979 Dodge Coronet (South America) * 1978-1982 Plymouth Caravelle (Canada) * 1980-1981 Dodge Dart (Mexico) * 1981-1982 Dodge Magnum 5.9L (Mexico) * 1982-1989 Plymouth Gran Fury * 1982 Chrysler New Yorker * 1983 Chrysler New Yorker Fifth Avenue * 1983-1989 Plymouth Caravelle Salon (Canada) * 1984-1989 Chrysler Fifth Avenue * 1979-1980 Monteverdi Sierra Convertible Three body styles offered: * 2-door coupe - 1977-1981 * 4-door sedan - 1977-1989 * 4-door station wagon - 1978-1981 Two wheelbases used: * 108.7 in - 1980-1981 2-door * 112.7 in - 1977-1979 2-door, 1978-1981 Station Wagon and 1977-1989 4-door Engines used with this platform include: * 225 Slant 6 (1977-1983) * 318 V8 (1977-1989) * 360 V8 (1977-1979) * 1977 Dodge Diplomat sedan * 1980 Chrysler Town and Country station wagon * 1984 Chrysler Fifth Avenue sedan * 1986 Plymouth Caravelle Salon sedan (en)
  • La plataforma Chrysler M (o "Carrocería-M") era un tipo de plataforma de automóvil de tamaño mediano utilizada por Chrysler de 1977 a 1989. Fue la sucesora de la plataforma Chrysler F, empleada en los Dodge Aspen/Plymouth Volare. La Carrocería-M también fue la sucesora de la de corta duración, ya que el Chrysler New Yorker y el Plymouth Gran Fury se trasladaron a ella tras la desaparición de la Carrocería-R en 1981. Se convirtió en el último diseño vendido en los Estados Unidos con un eje trasero tipo Hotchkiss y con una suspensión de ballestas semielípticas paralelas.​ (es)
