The General Motors C platform (commonly called C-body) was a fullsize car automobile platform produced until 1996.
It was similar to the GM B platform in its rear wheel drive era (vehicles produced were upscale luxury cars as opposed to the stripped-down cars usually common with the GM B platform), and the GM H platform in front wheel drive, with both the H-body and the C-body using the same 110.8 in wheelbase. Most C-body vehicles were moved to the GM G platform or GM K platform in the mid-1990s.
The C-body was rear wheel drive until 1985; from 1986 onwards, the C-body was front wheel drive.
This platform was the basis for the following vehicles:
