GM E platform
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The General Motors E platform (commonly called the E-body) was a personal luxury car automobile platform produced from 1966 to 2002. It was essentially identical to Cadillac's K platform, but that was dedicated to sedans, while all E-bodies were coupés. The 1986–1993 E-bodies were produced at GM's high-tech Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly plant.
A smaller version, the GM V platform, was produced for two "halo cars", the Buick Reatta and Cadillac Allanté. These only lasted from 1987 to 1993 (1988 to 1991 for the Reatta), however.
This platform was the basis for the following vehicles:
- 1967–2002 Cadillac Eldorado
- 1966–1992 Oldsmobile Toronado
- 1966–1976 (RWD), 1979–1993 (FWD) Buick Riviera (the 1977-1978 Riviera was made on the B platform)
